    Here's that link again to what looks like great follow up book Fairmind suggested. I think I'm going to check this out further. The Forward is available online....

    The best thing to do when reading these books is to read them critically. Where's the proof? Is this a logical arguement or does it simply appeal to my emotions?

    Jehovah-Talk by David A. Reed is a good read. Brings back memories though!

    I'd strongly recommend reading something completely unconnected with JWism. Once I read Franz's books I couldn't stomach reading any more. In fact, half way through In Search of Christian Freedom I knew I needn't read any more!

    Widen your horizons now.
