If he stayed Physically in even if he was mentally agnostic as he claims to be now, then he would not have messed up his life so terribly
So you're ok with folks living a big lie? I think it's better to face this beast head on, let them know you want no part of this cult, and deal with whatever consequences come from that.
What does “living a lie” mean? Don’t we all make compromises in this world? I walk down the street and people go about their ordinary business as if nothing is wrong, yet my country is flying planes from its military base in Cyprus to participate in genocide: the starving, bombing, and murdering of children in their tens of thousands. And yet it’s the brave people who dare to protest the genocide that are labelled terrorists, proscribed and thrown in prison. It is a dystopian nightmare when you really think about it. By acting as if this isn’t happening, or it is acceptable, or excusable, aren’t we all “living a lie”? A far worse lie than sitting in a KH seat I would suggest. In fact knowing the KH is home to people who refuse to support any war makes me far happier there than other places and groups acting as if it’s okay what our country is doing.
Staying in would have been a problem for Evans. His issues run far deeper than just doubts about JW teachings.
