  Hi Everyone. Answer to prayer countdown...

  i've been lurking for about 3 months now and thought i'd better finally sign up.

  you have all been an immense help to me as i have come to realize that this isn't the truth so i want to say a great big thank you!

  what a crazy, emotional ride it is to finally face the truth about the doubts that i have carried for many years.

  Thank you so much for the awesome update! I like that you guys can help your little niece and nephew grow up normally and im so glad you were able to help your sister.

  Your close friends who also had doubts who were the first to shun you...it's because they're scared. They don't want to lose their families and everything they've ever known. They are still trying to make it work for themselves, and the fact they shared doubts with you makes them feel insecure.

  If I was you I would consider adopting a child, but I understand that's not for everyone. And you do have your brothers kids. All fun no work!

  LisaRose, that has the ring of truth.

  I think we are all here because we skipped our 'medication' for too long.

  I'm still in shock from the visual image of a child being taught to give their coins not to feed hungry children or for housing the homeless...but to give their coin to tall buildings. Buildings!! Oh, and meaningless literature carts everyone tries to avoid.

  It's definitely a new low and I think normal people would be horrified to see it. Please share, if you can.

  If you believe Christ died for your sins you are definitely a Christian, if don't think the bible should completely be taken literally, you are not a fundamentalist Christian. And that's OK!!

  Conan you were so courageous!! I hope you are OK too. It must have hurt a little to bring these truths to your friends and have this confrontation with them. It sounds like it ended much better than it could have, with you offering support to them if they need it and hugs all around. I am very glad your mother went with you, and it would have gotten much uglier. Witnesses are very reticent for outsiders to see any of the ugliness, so she was a very good protection.

  In your religious search be very careful to avoid high control groups, this has been a good education for you.

  Except each Democrat does well vs. Each Republican on a national scale. As a whole, the country is moving in a progressive direction.

  But. As I said before, there is still a threat of a new terrorist attack on American soil. That would be the one thing to push the majority over to the fear mongering Trump. Maybe not the one and only thing, but the guaranteed thing.

  Can I pick up a New World Translation from the JW London head office?

  i'm an anglican and not a jehovahs witness.

  what i dislike about lots of church congregations is their readiness to make unpleasant and unhelpful comments about other christian groups.

  recently someone in a church tried to tell me a little about the views of jehovahs witnesses.

  Camperdown, if I was you I would go to your Anglican church next Sunday and fall on your knees, kiss the ground, thankful that you have freedom of your own thoughts and can even publicly differ from your peers on details of doctrine, if you so desire, without being shut off from everyone you were ever allowed to be close to.

  You may have heard little judgmental comments about JW's by members of your church...but witnesses firmly believe, and say every week, that all other churches and the people in them will be destroyed by God for being evil. I wouldn't feel too sorry for the poor witnesses if I were you, but I do commend your openness of mind. Individually many of them are wonderful people...but they still believe God is going to destroy everyone soon, who doesnt join their religion.
