    I didn't see an introduction forum anywhere but I thought it would be weird to start posting without first introducing myself so, here we are. I'm 15, and I've been looking for a place to discuss my thoughts on the religion that I'm pretty much stuck in at the moment. My mom and dad divorced over their different beliefs over a year ago (My mom is JW and my dad is an very knowledgeable apostate, so you can see how they would fight over it), and since then I've stopped believing altogether.

    Just thought I'd say hello. I hope I can find some friends here who understand.

    Hi TTBE welcome to the forum.

    You're lucky to have a dad who is out the cult. Let's hope your mum gets there.

    We definitely understand. We may disagree about many things and have different ideas about everything, but one thing we see eye to eye on: we know what it was like to be in that religion. And a lot of us are still struggling with how to get out if it.

    Thomas welcome. It sadden me to think you are 15 years old, an age when you

    should be enjoying your youth. There are so many here that was raised in that organization

    and it was the worst time in their life. We hope we can help in anyway to make your youth a

    pleasurable time.

    Welcome TTBE sorry to hear about your parents divorce,

    It just a shame that had to happen over a very deceptive corrupt religious cult like the JWS.

    Your brave and courageous for coming here and openly discuss your thoughts and experiences.

    Its just an unfortunate shame as well that people don't research this religious organization (Publishing house) before they join it.

    The majority do not know about its corruption, to why it started so and exceeded in expanding under this deceptive pretentious guise.
