    funny how, reading some of the replies, that the reasons for getting out aren't always the ones that keep you out.

    i have to give it up for anyone who left because of conscience/doctrinal issues.

    i left (asked to leave rather) mainly to smoke, drink, and carouse with tarts as much as humanly possible. two years later it was because i couldn't feel it was the truth (as opposed to being able to verbalize it), not for lack of trying. then after this and other sites, and C.O.C. etc, it was because i found the organization and all it embodies to be a dangerous cult that has robbed me and others of happy childhoods and friends/family. they either nauseate me or stir up some pity, depending on my mood.

    I left because of the unchristian ways shown by many, but more importantly the HYPOCRISY when I discovered the UN scandal etc.

    Control + F5 should allow you to see everybody's new avatar if you're using IE.

    I left because I felt like I was losing my mind, I knew there was something seriously wrong with JWism but I couldn't quite put my finger on what it was. Thanks to people like Ray Franz, Randy Watters, and Simon Green, who helped me see the light.

    I left because I saw the hyopcrisy and lack of love in the JW world, not to mention I started to read the Bible independantly (gasp!) and could see the Bible's teachings were different from those of the WTS. The 144000, the blood doctrine and the FDS were things I didn't believe in any more, and could not consciencously support. And I left. So I suppose you could say I went because of "noble" reasons.
