No one will hold anything but 4/ and 5/ against you. But as the old saying goes, "To each his own, said the old German DFd lady as she kissed the cow."
There are any number of things that I could say to you about a decision to return to the JWs, but here's one thought:
The Governing Body clearly requires people to be loyal to it above being loyal to God. They require one not only to profess belief in certain false things, but to actually believe in those false things, until they say different. That is diametrically opposed to a number of statements in the Christian Greek scriptures, which I need not list.
How do you justify your giving such absolute, unquestioning loyalty to a group of men? Even the most vociferous of JW-defenders on this board admits that the Governing Body has set up a system that amounts to actual worship -- idolatry, really -- of the Governing Body. Do you really think that God approves of such idolatry?

1/ I am a man.

4/ I will NEVER go back!
5/ I believe that JW's are mind controled brainwashee's.
6/ I accept that fact all humans are imperfect and make errors.

Sue:
Why was your husband posting as you?
(In the U.S. we had a song about a "Boy Named Sue" :-)
Excellent suscinct post btw, Alan. Said a lot.
No, but I have seen Fred looking at Sue!!
I am Sue's husband!
AlanF You are entitled to your opinion.
Sue has hers. Let's accept it that way.
Sue,
As I said before 'you are as fake as a stuffed lion.' I don't believe a word of it. See you in the arena someday, where we can test your metal - hu!
Alternative, what I said is not an opinion. It is a demonstrated fact.
Do you need actual quotations from Watchtower literature to prove it? How about personal experiences of people who didn't worship JW leaders 'properly'? How about an internal memo that said outright that one cannot even hold religious opinions different from the GB's without being DF'd? Are you prepared to defend your wife's choice with facts? Or just go along with that standard, lame old excuse, "I can believe whatever I want!"

It seems I cannot disagree with you.
You will have the last word.
If the WTS is wrong - ok it's wrong - then you are right.
So what - we all believe what we want to.
I believe Michael Schumacher will be world champion in 2001
I could be wrong. If I am I will be happy for who ever is right.
If the Watchtower Society is wrong will you be happy for whoever is right?
