I woke myself up. I had doubts especially about elders and those up there having higher authority... because power corrupts most human beings, right?
A little researching had me uncover articles related to cases of child abuse, UN, etc.. but most of all, I felt that something wasn't right.
Ultimately, it is the level of self-righteousness, hypocrisy, conditional love, absence of genuine care that helped me realize this is just like any other religion... but more emotionally damaging to members.
I thought that my curiousity, gut feel, and reasoning are also a gift from God. So why should I completely ignore it to follow WTS blindly?? I woke up and want to never fall asleep again.
