I am so happy for you. I think your story will be encouraging to others who want to fade. So far my husband and I have faded. Wishing you the very best!

When I knew for sure it was not the truth, I had to help my husband out. He was sick of the truth too by this time, but he is not the kind that would do the research that is needed to free yourself of the beast. So we were still going. After I showed my husband the facts and read Crisis of Conscience he knew it was not the truth. We left and never went back. We are now marked and totally shunned but after 43 years how could I give them another day of my life?

When I was waking up I could not watch their videos. Now I see how much they care about people and want to help bring the Watchtower down. It takes all kinds. Cedars appeals to some, Critical Thinker to others. Mike and Kim will help others. They all have something to share and let's not put any of them down. Haven't we had enough of that? On the last video I watched they were both crying reading an experience. I could see how hurt they are like all the rest of us by the WT.

When the accounts are read and you hear how much money is going to the worldwide work it is very little. When we were going only $200-$300.00 per month. I always thought that was strange. The friends are not contributing. Let's face it a car payment can easily be more than a couple hundred dollars and that is all that is put into the contribution box each month.
We own a very small business yet it takes a lot of money and you can go through money quickly with business expenses. It doesn't take long. Lett said more is going out than coming in, and obviously he is right. They wouldn't be having the cutbacks they are having if they had enough money. My two cents worth, they are going down and I can't wait!

A new step in my exit from the WT
by Skepsis inif you remember, i've been posting here my subsequent steps from a regular pioneer and ms at the beginning of this year to a rank-and-file publisher after stepping down as ms two months ago.. during these months, i've been through a difficult way.
but after every step, i could feel freer and better.
i've met a person outside the wt that has changed my life forever and i have experienced a freedom of thought and an inner peace like never before.. however, i knew that staying in my hometown would make my fading very difficult.

Yeah! Good for you. That gets your cards out of the old congregation and let's face it, they really don't care about you or anybody. After they get your cards that will be it, you will be free. Don't ever go back.

I had a frustrating conversation with my dad who has been in for over 40 years. When I was waking up I carefully told him a few things about 1914. I was also blown away about the Gutenberg press marking the fall of Babylon. Really??? What scripture says that? I tried to explain to him how that new light completely erases the things we learned in Revelation.
He said he doesn't care, he can't keep up with all that stuff, he is going to do what they say so he can live in paradise. He does not know that I have left. He lives halfway across the country thank goodness. Any conversation I have with him he wants to talk about paradise. I think many are that way, after all it is just around the corner!
