Going to a religious college after leaving the JW's was one of the best things that ever happened to me. When I was disfellowshiped, I still thought they were right, and that I was just a bad person and couldn't live up to their standards.
In my core classes, there were two that were about theology. I, still having the JW mindset, was going to use these classes as a plaform to prove JW doctrine as correct. The first paper that I turned in almost got me kicked out of school, due to the lack of "works cited" in JW liturature. For the second, I did research the JW's on the internet. Holy shit, that is when I found out about the UN/NGO scandal. I was furious! Those MF'ers make moral decisions about me, when they are sleeping with the wild beast?
I was cured at that instant. Thank you, Indiana Wesleyan University!
