No I cannot relate. After twenty five years out I still cringe when I see them. I know of their dishonesty and backbiting of one another. I still have siblings and children in.

Keep in Step!
by Rooster inkeep in step!.
22 kingdom interests on the earth have been entrusted to "the faithful and discreet slave," which is represented by the governing body of jehovahs witnesses.
(matthew 24:45-47) the governing body is primarily concerned with providing spiritual instruction and direction for the christian congregation.

WTS view of Red Cross, etc
by blindersoff inhttp://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/105666/1.ashx .
"this is probably the one organization you will see that will see this project to the end," farrow said.

The WT is always jealous of the Red Cross. The Red Cross is always there to help all in need without asking their religious affiliation, without loking for repayment.The WT could learn a lesson from the Red Cross. However we know they are too proud and haughty for that.

Circuit Overseer Celebrities?
by Delboy222 ini am a active jw, but one question i would like to know is why do these 'men' get treated as superstar celebrities when they attend the congregation?.
