Apostate Story @ New York Times
by DannyHaszard inthree times a week in the kingdom hall in miami, my brother and i strove to sit perfectly still in our chairs.
our mother carried a wooden spoon in her purse and was quick to take us outside for beatings if we fidgeted.
i sat onstage in the kingdom hall in surrey, england, where my father's job had taken us.

this story makes a sad reading considering that i am one person who wishes to join the WT cause most of those i have come to contact with have never exhibited such potraits of incalculated extreme religious inflexibilty this is not to say there should embrace unbiblcal practises cause the bible is clear that there are no two routes to god but only one and only route and that there are no extremes when it comes to following gods ways as long as you are properly following biblical scriptures but if the church as a whole condones such practises within its ranks than i will definately look somewhere else for spiritual satisfaction.The story leaves me pondering on the folllowing qeustions?
Is it right to right to orient a person rather than teach openly and let that person make an informed decision on his own ?
should we blame the WT?
where the parents really following the true teachings of the bible or were following their own misguided social norms?
is the WT ways the bibles ways?
hope someone from here can assist but definately when i come across WT people i will ask for their position.
