Katie. No I was gay. So that was never right, but that wasn't their fault. I'm sure every help would have been offered to me, it was a very loving congregation, but it was much "easier" at the time to fade and vanish and pursue my own lifestyle choice. That doesn't however when I look back make their teachings "wrong" it just made it impossible for me to continue being an active Witness. There lies the dilemna. It has never dimmed my view of what the say though. Hope that makes sense!!

But what if they're right............still the Truth?
by ScoobySnax inthis will probably apply to few here, but to me it'll always be that way.
it's the what if syndrome maybe, but it's always there.
i still think that as a core belief system the jw's have it right, even if their delivery isn't always right.

No no....it's not the "threat" of Armageddon that makes me feel that way, it's just that I suck up every religious debate online I can, but none of them seem to be right to me, and I'm trying to word this right so you don't jump all over me, ...but none of them seem to have the ring of truth that I remember from the Kingdom Hall. You can call it indoctrination maybe, but it's just how I feel. Of course most of the time I can get on and live my life, but sometimes it still jabs me in the neck.

We will have to disagree here. Life in all it's myriads of beliefs and ways must continue. We must never deny one group, else we start down a slippery slope. What makes us great is that we allow tolerance and individuality, and yes even group think amongst many if they so chose that path. When you start saying this group or that group should go, well, it's just worrying. It's only my view anyway.

I'm pretty sure it was Batmans fault that I turned out gay. Course it's just a theory.

Seeker, All the times these groups including JW's/Mormons/Adventists etc expand, I always think it's a good thing. You can call it Fundemantalist, but what would worry me would be if they all disappeared and we were left with just one teaching or point of view. To me, freedom of expression would then truly be dead.
