i am new here.

tho i have lurked, this is my first real post.. i was doing "personal research" for the last 5 years, tho was helped along recently when i was deleted as an elder because i work for a company owned by a disassociated jw.

there is no real definitive info in print, other than the infamous 9/15/81 wt, but the co held a mini-crusade and got me axed.. nothing personal,.... just business.

i was born and raised a witness.

baptized at 14. pioneered after high school and was accepted to bethel when i was 19. got booted from bethel on my 21st b-day because someone exposed me for underage drinking prior to my 21st b-day.

after i left bethel, nothing was ever the same, and my eyes began to be opened and i started seeing more clearly.

hello, i am new to this website, but have to be straightforward and say that i do not agree with most subjects and contents.

i am an active jehovah witness, but i am very lonely so i am looking for others with the "hope" or to speak to those that know someone that does.

it has been a long , hard road for me.

you buy a state lottery ticket with a motherlode of a jackpot similar to one in california recently.. lo and behold you alone win the $300,000,000.. before and after the next meeting you share your joy with the brothers and sisters.

some are naturally curious to know what percentage you plan on donating to the world wide preaching work and local congregation?.

how do you respond?.

i should clarify, i am new at posting, not new to the board.. i've been checking in for a short time now.

"spying", "lurking", whatever you would like to call it.

but i thought it was time to come out of the "first closet" i've been in for more than 20 years.
