  hi...

  i was looking at jw sites on the net and i found this site, its pretty cool i must admit and you all seem to be so positive about life after "the truth".

  but its also comforting to hear how scared some of you were when you first left.. at the moment i'm contemplating leaving the organization.

  i haven't been attending the meetings much lately, nor done any witnessing, and to be honest i don't miss it.

  the next time a householder says to you: everyone has his own interpretation of the bible, how will you respond?

  perhaps you will use the suggestion from the reasoning book (page 65) you might reply: and obviously not all of them are right.

  you might add: twisting the scriptures to fit our own ideas can result in lasting harm .
