  to join or not

  i've had in the past studied a little about the bible with jws but have yet decided to be baptised.. i've just read lavenders' moving letter to her son and her love and well being for him is very obvious.

  i do like the bible teachings very much and to this day i'm very interested in the end of the system of things which will very soon come to fruition; i'm a very strong believer, however i must stipulate to all, in retrospect i'm not sinless.

  one of the posters says that jw's ask you to do a liitle bible study with them, attend one of their meetings and when you get baptised you have to do exactly what you are instructed or else.

  As time goes by, are there more inactive JW's?

  the watchtower is in black and white.

  you're in or you're out.

  but when you become inactive and don't go to meetings for years, you're not in and you're not out, because you still have to live under their rules.. but as time goes by, i'm sure that there are more inactive people than previously and the in and out, black and white seperation is diluting.. maybe their black and white way of seperating jw's will become more and more black and gray and white..

  i read on the site somehere of an ex elder who chopped himself at the end of his public talk.

  i think he was from the uk and he posted both the outline and the actual sound from it.

  anyone got it so they can repost?.

  ive been "in the truth" ever since i was 6 years old when my mother was baptised in the late 70`s.

  so i sort of got dragged along to the meetings and therin started the indoctrination that was to prove to be my undoing.

  ive been reading this page for a while now and read some very slick posts from dissillusioned ex members.
