I was worried for a few yrs after I left,if I made the right desion.After I really searched and learned about the JW's,I know I made the right desion leaving.Some days...the "what if" was always in the back of my mind.I have mentioned many times before that I didnot have any close family in the JW's so I never felt isolated.Loss of faith....I feel I have more faith now.

What are You all Doing Here?
by TisInYourWishbone ina friend of mine recommended i peruse this forum because he is of the impression i would find it rewarding.
the basis of his recommendation was due to a very long friendship and not due to any association (that i do not have) with jehovahs witnesses.
he considers me his superior in intellect and wants an appraisal of this sight but to be honest i have neither the incliniation nor the time to get in deep enough to comment.
