Great experience................similar to how it went with our family...............we are all out now too. The only JW's still in our family are my mother, one aunt, one cousin, and one of my husband's brothers. Everyone else has "seen the light"..............most were given something to think about by my husband, but a few did their own thinking and it was all simultaneous to our awakening. I guess some families are just wired the same.
I know we are the lucky ones though..............we know many others, and lots on this board who didn't have this experience and lost most of their family. Your Dad took a huge risk and it paid off. Good for him.

Actually my brother got disfellowshipped for something he should not have. That blew my dad's mind, knowing the scriptures the way he did. So he started looking into things. One thing led to another and presto! The REAL truth showed it's head.

Welcome, Freddy!
Good bio! I'm one of the lucky unlucky ones - lucky to have seen the light and exited with my wife and two sons, but unlucky in that my two daughters are still captive (though, of course, they can't see it). Still, your story gives hope.
I agree with you. Those at the top AND numerous elders KNOW it's all baloney - but stay to laud it over everyone, to stay in their positions and, for those in the GB, stay at being fearful of losing an easy life.

Welcome Freddy!
I loved the George Carlin quote! How true!
So happy that you're family took the plunge and exited the JW organization. I wish this was true for everyone here.
Have a great day and again...welcome! Cathy L.

hello freddy,
i appreciated yer story as it touches a chord with mine and maybe just about everyone who 'sees the light about ever increasing light' and the wts
i'm still in but mentally, emotionally, and physically move my family and self farther away.
been there and done that with talks, witnessing, bethel, assemblies etc etc etc like you and am still in shock over the bubble bursting of my life long religion
i've got major family numbers all in the borg and can only hope a few can be 'saved' - just a few would make breaking free forever much easier
look forward to more of your story
