When they changed the "generation" understanding.....then, I had a run in with a sister in our congregation who totally twisted something I said to her, and called me into a little meeting with the bros. She had stacked the deck in her favor...two were very close personal friends of hers, leaving one fairly unbiased guy. That was the day I saw the Borg in action, behind closed doors, and the fact that I had been a faithful sister and elder's wife for twenty five years meant nothing to them. Then, I got fired from a job and went to work at a temp job, where I became involved, emotionally, with a guy. All of this made me realize, at 42, that something was seriously wrong with my life, and I needed to make major changes......after the run in with the sister, I slacked off from going to meetings, then when I got involved with this guy, I felt even more like a fish out of the congregational pool....and it took me another year and a half to end my marriage and start a new life on my own. But, to be truthful, even before the generation change of understanding, I had met a young woman from door to door that blew my doors in with her understanding of scripture...it was she who first put the seed in my mind that the WT's understanding of scripture may be based on false understanding....it then took another ten years after that to send me packing.....
