Thank you for your balanced response. I wasn't really questioning your motives. You were the victim of these hate messages after all!!
Of interest many of your comments could be equally applied to some ex-JW's who use these discussion boards.
I cannot possibly imagine a JW saying such things to my face if they came to my door. With the inception of the internet, this has given many JW's the opportunity to anonymously show their true colors
I can't imagine any HUMAN saying many of the things said online to another person's face. With the inception of the internet, this has given many human's the opportunity to anonymously show their true colors.
Some of the true colors seen by JW's and non-JW's alike are pretty damned scary.
Thus the reason I thank you again for your balanced, reasonable response.
