Scooby, great post! I have read a few of your posts now, and it seems that you have a unique perspective on things. I can understand your attitude about the atmosphere of this board. If I feel that there there are posters here that i don't appreciate , they will get the "ignore" button. And there will always be some morons posting here. I try to pick out the ones that are not afraid of different viewpoints. Regarding moving on. In my case, I have other family that continues to be active witnesses. I am not currently. I continue to read and post here because The watchtower will always be a part of my life in one way or another. So I cannot just wash my hands of it and walk away , not remembering it again.
