Derrick,
Personally, I'm sad that you're leaving. I think this board has opened your eyes a little and I hoped you would stick around. You do need thick skin to be here, so I was impressed that you stuck as long as you did. Good job.
But please consider one thing: Leaving the Watchtower Society, does NOT mean leaving Jehovah. If you believe the Bible is God's Word, then start reading it. Read it unfettered with the words of the Watchtower magazine explaining it to you. Jehovah gave you a head to reason with and a heart to follow...read the Bible on your own and use what God gave you. You'll be surprised at how much the WTS does NOT live up to the teachings of God's Word. Start with Galatians or Ephesians or Romans. You'll be surprised by the words as you read them like a book, in context.
I think you have a good heart and I think you're hungry for Truth, or you wouldn't be here. When we ask you questions (which may seem like attacking), we are asking you to question what you've been fed through a bunch of men. The bible speaks of Jesus being the Mediator of God...not an earthly organization.
Best wishes to you, but please come back.
Andi
