    PO- then you are a rare case when someone falls for church deception after losing faith (in men).

    Punky, it's been said ( and repeated by me ) that the way the Org has been set up is such that anyone leaving it will lose faith.

    Some , like you , do try mainstream churches but even then most seem to end up atheistic. As l said elsewhere it's an " if we can't have you , no one will " attitude .

    Thomas, you seem good at dropping into threads , being caustic to people then moving on . Will you explain to me which place of ignorance l was coming from when l asked about JW healthcare in America. I would like to be put right if l was wrong in my assumptions.

    Also l am curious as to which bits of JW doctrine you do find correct as you seem to want to defend the Org. against criticism while criticising it yourself .

    Your comment sounds rude, sanctimonious, mean and patronising. Was that your intention?

    If not what is your intention with your comment?

    if you mean why did i join the cult ? I had no choice--mother got religion when i was pre-teen. Everything i did in the cult was to please her--or out of fear of being destroyed--then to please girlfriend / wife who i married to have sex with. She was a 3rd gen born in. I Finally stood up to them and walked when i was in my early 20's.

    They why did you 'sign-up'?

    or--if you mean sign up on here? Mixed reasons. But i dont get involved in bible thumping or arguing with god squad types.

    I'm glad i'm not the only one to think this. Doubting Thomas seems to come across as aggressive - looking for a verbal punch up.

    As a still in JW, im in doubt what to do. Do understand this org is part of Babylon now. Its a risk being in this org. My idé is leaders gonna be held rsponsible for this mess. But i could be wrong. Yeah unsure if i should abandon org or not. Hard decision 🤔
