when i decided to stop going meetings, i text sister who was a good friend, and told her that i wasnt continuing with meetings and the reason why, because of child abuse policy etc.

i asked her if she would like to stay in touch.

she said that even though she agreed with me, she's 'not one to keep in contact, and i'm not one to judge either'.

it's a little sad and pathetic really isnt it? how much does friendship mean to JWs? because i wasnt brought up in it all, i was a little niave as to their conditioned way of treating people. such a shame really because these people could have been great people to know and be real friends with. shame the WTS comes between all that.

well at least they'll never let me down again

i joined this site last week hoping to meet people that would steer me back to the organization.

instead the people i have talked to her are all trying to tell me too see the light and get out of the organization.

in my opinion, not that it matters, i really think that if a person had the truth deeply ingrained in them, they would never leave the truth.

if after studying all the information about the WTS with an open mind, you feel it would make you happy to go back to the org, then great.....do it! i'm sure the majority of us here would be happy for you, knowing that it would make you happy.

just dont insist everyone else should do the same.

Reality check: World less happy about America

facinating results from a global poll relating to public opinions of america in various countries around the world.. [url] http://www.torontostar.com/nasapp/cs/contentserver?pagename=thestar/layout/article_type1&c=article&cid=1035775217105&call_pageid=968332188854&col=968350060724[/url].

a major survey on international opinion released in washington yesterday shows u.s. popularity has plunged across much of the world amid mounting perceptions that the united states is running roughshod over other nations.

the planet's sole superpower commands only tepid affection, just as the u.s. government struggles to win international support for a possible military incursion against iraq as the next stage in its war on terrorism.. in fact, the prospect of a u.s.-led offensive aimed at overthrowing iraqi dictator saddam hussein has become a major irritant between washington and even its closest allies.. .
