If I may, please read Steven Hassan's Combating Cult Mind Control, then go on to 30 Years a Watchtower Slave. You'll understand everything very clearly after that. Up to you to decide if you want to read Ray Franz's book after, which I'm sure you will. My allegiance is to the Father and his Christ not to any religion nor organization. I DA'ed and told them all to pound sand. And when they play the guilt trip on you someday if you do same where as they ask you who taught you the Bible, who taught you about Jehovah ? Answer you did from the written word and that you paid dearly for it in the way of contributions, time and energy. There are other groups that teach similar such as SDA, Unitarians, Messianic Jews etc. plus many other new online groups that the society has now become redundant and caught in the past. People are smarter now and are able to own their research unlike the seventies where religions had monopoly. GB1 would be having a heart attack today if they could see the level of openness out there now. Their selfish control is OVER !! No one group has truth. Look up Dr. Michael Brown or One for Israel as a starting point and progress on your own, good luck !! I don't give the org another 10 years before they are cut in half of what they are now maybe less. They might even loose their tax exempt status in some countries but of course they will spin it as persecution. I was in for 8 years too many myself.
