I'm glad things worked out for you. I have two questions. I'm new to these forums, so if this isn't the place, please let me know. First, why doesn't the WTS have email? Secondly, why don't the CD's contain every book they ever published, all the way back to the Studies in the Scriptures? We might be able to compare the old and the new and see what's wrong, don't you think??? Just a thought.

Why Aren't Jehovah's Witnesses Allowed To Freely Express Themselves?
by minimus init's a simple fact.
jw's cannot freely express themselves.
they can't freely tell another about a doubt or a question that they might have for fear they could be exposed to the elders.

I'm new at this so please forgive me if this ends up in the wrong place. Someone called Scholar was claiming that he was an independent thinker since 1964 and had a BA and MA in religion. You may be an independent thinker, so am I. I've read almost every book the WTS has published since the Studies in the Scriptures and have an IQ of 150 and am majoring in psychology, heading for my doctorate. I'm just saying this so you know I've also had some "deep thoughts". But if you verbalize any of your independent thinking in front of most JW's, you will pay for it. I was nearly DF'd for just reading Ray Franz's books. The elders just reproved me but I didn't care. NO ONE will ever tell me what I can read, think or say. But if you do it in front of the brothers, believe me, you will hear about it. My own wife reported me. We are now separated and will be divorced. I won't stay married to an idiot robot. I've asked them every question from quantum physics, where did God get the space from to put the universe in, who made God, etc. They can't find anyone in the circuit who can answer my questions, so they gave up. I'm now debating leaving. The only reason I'm hesitating is that my 18 year old daughter will not speak to me again. She is having mental problems due to something that happened to her years ago and I love her so much and don't want to lose her. So I don't attend or go out in field service. They now just leave me alone. If you have spoken out freely and disagreed with their major beliefs in front of elders, I'd love to be a fly on the wall to see it. I'm not putting you down, I'm proud of you. I just can't believe you can get away with it.
