Would You EVER Go Back To Being A Jehovah's Witness?

by minimus in

jw
friends

i could never understand why some people who know the truth about the "truth" ever go back.

once you understand all the hypocrisy and negatives, i would think it's almost impossible to go back!.

If a situation develops where I can openly question and have freedom of belief please let me know :)

Soft copy for about $30,

There are so many problems with this story that anyone who's open to the possibility can see that its just a story!

I researched Archeological Journals and found that there is no evidence of Sodom and Gomorrah's destruction,

The BibleTeach Book says there is,

They lie

In western countries, public standards as well as parents with the smallest amount of common sense prevent small children from watching frightening scenes on TV

But, in the name of religion!

What's next?

Armageddon?

How Long Out Before They leave You Alone

by tepidpoultry in

many years ago i met an older man in the ministry who told me he was a baptized jw years ago, when i met him he was an alchoholic and had girlfriends, i told the elders, two came by and they told me to treat him as a regular worldly guy, my question is (i know this is a fuzzy area) about how much time needs to go by before someone (me for instance) would be looked upon as a non jw worldly person?.

Thanks everyone for your response so far,

One thought that struck me,

(and mixing with my own)

is that jws, especially family are thinking:

Come back to Jehovah,

meaning come out of the "mud"

Because we are "assuredly living the life of drunken gambler"

Rather than the life of a thinking person who can't pretend to live the lie of belief anymore,

Thanks again,
