@WifiBandit,
Do you also archive to https://archive.org/web/ ?
It retains the original formatting (more or less) and is searchable...
i asked an old jw friend of mine why so many baptized individuals leave the jw religion.
"did it ever occur to you, old friend, that maybe they know something that you don't know and have valid reasons for leaving?
", i asked.. his response set me back for an answer.
I read something that somewhat took away my main reason to believe in a Creator.
So I started a thorough research project to find more and better arguments to believe in Jehovah the Creator. I found none.
What I did find what the multitude of dishonest quotes in Watchtower publications regarding evolution.
That dishonesty triggered me to dig deeper, trying to find evidence of the Bible being inspired, and Jehovah's Witnesses are the one true religion.
I found nothing but fallacies, deception, dishonesty, cover-ups, hidden scandals and confirmation bias.
I left JW because I value truth and honesty more than my social life.
I left JW because I have been taught to take a stand for truth and righteousness, so I did.
Anyone who knows me can tell you I'm not gay, have not cheated on my wife, and have no problem with any individual JW.
As for your friend: it's way easier on his mind to blame others for leaving, than to acknowledge he may be wrong.
is there gods true worshipers on earth today as jesus said there would be?
if they are not jws then who are they?.
who else comes close to being gods true followers today?.
Christadelphians even refused to take up arms when Jehovah's Witnesses still thought combatant service was OK as long as you didn't shoot to kill...
in the netherlands, an action going on to get two brothers from sierra leone a residence permit.. the men fled the horrible civil war in their country when 14 and 11 years old.
without parents.. they have now lived in the netherlands more than half of their lives.
they are well educated, have nothing in sierra leone and everything in the netherlands.
Just to clarify: Watchtower hasn't done anything at all to help these guys. And they won't do anything either.
It's only other churches and politicians that help the guys...

@Former brother,
Just because you fail to do proper research doesn't mean you're right.

In The Netherlands, an action going on to get two brothers from Sierra Leone a residence permit.
The men fled the horrible civil war in their country when 14 and 11 years old. Without parents.
They have now lived in The Netherlands more than half of their lives. They are well educated, have nothing in Sierra Leone and everything in The Netherlands. They want to contribute to society but they can't, because they are illegal residents thus not allowed to have a job.
One of the men is an active JW (a young orphan refugee ends up in a cult, what a surprise....)
Since they can be evicted any day, people have started lobbying for them. Local politicians and churches actively support their cause. A petition to parliament has been started. There have been and will be protest rallies and visits to the parliament.

One can only wonder:
FYI I fully support that these guys should get to stay in The Netherlands. Just wondering about the JW implications.

@DJS,
Thanks.
Unfortunately I am an heretic apostate dar'manda: I hardly know anything about Star Trek. Or Star Wars. Haven't seen or read LOTR neither. So I guess I'll see Fek'lhr in Gre'thor soon...
i mean this with all due respect, i would like to hear from genuine people who think jw have it wrong and then what is the truth?.
im not talking about silly little quibbles here and there.. is jehovah real?
the the bible is word?
So it seems there is not one clear alternative, if there was one then it should be obvious.
Leave the LDS Church and then just wonder alone, or am I missing something?
Is there Gods true worshipers on Earth today as Jesus said there would be? If they are not Mormons then who are they?
You realize apologists from other religions ask the same questions?
Would that mean their religions are also the one true religion?

A lot of questions need answers before we can even begin to attempt to answer your question:
Each of us can answer these questions for themselves, no need to argue in here.
I already quit at #1. I no longer believe that any of the Greek gods actually exist as real deities.
So my opinion is that no gods exist at all, hence to me all discussions about who is or is not worshipping any specific god in the correct way is as useful as discussing the color of the glitter dust on magic unicorns' tails.
Of course, others have different opinions and go through great lengths to 'prove' Star Trek is the best sci-fi series (sorry wrong forum) their religious ways are best or even the only acceptable ones.
