  The Truth or the Way ??? Just a thought

  i don't bother to query the "brothers" about their doctrine any longer i just get the old run around (not so here) so my question or rather statement is this.

  the truth (i feel) is in the bible and well the jw's do use the text to some degree but why oh why are they not in "the way" as the first century christians called their beliefs ?

  "the way" being a practice of christian beliefs\values ect .

  ending a "bible" study concerns

  first off i'd like to say what a pleasure it is to read the threads here and to say as well that it's quite refreshing to see the milk of human kindnes shared so freely here.. i just moved back east and have been staying with my 82 year old mom who's been a jw for 35 years (she's happy as a clam).

  knowing she'd appreicate the company going to the sunday meetings plus the 2 hour "school" i thought i could also form my own opinion on their "truth" ...so i did't research the "apostate web sites" till i had formed my own opinion...well 6 months (read) 125 hours at the kingdom hall later and my heart tells me that this "truth" is not for me.. the problem:.

  i'd like to quit the "bible" study that sucks up 1 1\2 hours each week...but i'm wondering if "the gang" is going to put any pressure on my dear old mom (again she's 82 years old) to get me to resume my bible study ?
