Did you see Chuck joined the army, now he's going to kill people and worship his country, see what leaving Jehovah gets you?" and the kid respond with "Well didn't Tim leave Jehovah and he now has a house, a family, a good job, nice cars, he's wrestled around North America, met famous Wrestlers and actors, does charity work frequently, and is genuinely happy."
I think you have well intentions and as a Christian yourself I see why you want not to be seen as just some person who rejected faith and turned his back entirely. However, I still believe you are just kinda of unrealistic about how Witnesses view those who left. You could cure cancer and be the bestest Christian ever but when you leave the fold, you are like that lukewarm water being spat out in their eyes.
They will tell themselves you aren't happy. "its just how he looks... he's not really happy inside. I can see it."
They will tell themselves you are wasting time doing charity work when you should be out preaching since Jehovah is going to fix all of those things, like that sad analogy of the guy cutting his neighbor's grass while his his is on fire, your pritoies are not straight, they'll wonder if you actually aren't straight, and they will wonder why you are involved in such violent activities and tell each other that your heart grew cold to the true god because of such things being inside of you. They will tell each other that you are weak and show them that even if you are a god person, even if you do good things, you are still not right in th eyes of Jehovah because if you were you wouldn't have left!
I think you somehow want to make peace with a religious system that really does not want to make peace with you. It wants you and if you don't want it it will damn you or demonize you. How you feel about Kyria's story and how it makes us look to these people will not matter because the story they have of you was made even before Kyra even left the Witnesses.
