I'm in the Midwestern part of the U.S. where we just had the coldest February on record.
when i first came to this forum i was of the belief that those of us who were still in due to family reasons were few in numbers perhaps one in a thousand in the jws.
soon i came to the realization that there were many more.
we have dozens of posters here who are mentally out but still in.

What part of the world do you live in?
the public talk on sunday was about evolution.. my son pointed out flaws in the speakers arguments during and after the meeting... mostly about how animals aren't able to communicate etc.
he even brought up coco the ape that is able to communicate via sign.. i told him that i heard a ton of inconsistencies but i am afraid to say anything because your mom will get angry :).
im glad he is paying attention.. and the school system must be doing something right..

i believe that the best way to inoculate any friend or relative of yours from becoming more deeply involved in the watchtower is exposure to recordings of the judicial process.. that goes for those already in the watchtower---if you can get them to listen.. what in your opinion are the best available online?.
i recommend several.
i am writing this off the cuff and do not have all the exact links, but you should find them easily.. anondud2 - on youtube.
Not turning in time is worse than Porn.
LOL!!! That is the funniest thing that I read in a while!
it took a few years but i finally decided to join yesterday.
my background, born-in, still go to meetings for family reasons, i am inactive however.
if you were to ask when i first woke up i would say 2010 with the overlapping generation garbage.
Welcome Comet!
I too was a long time lurker until about a month a ago. I have been mentally since at least 2010, but I still go to meetings just to keep up appearances. It is becoming tougher and tougher to do, however. I am thankful for websites like this that make it a little easier.
remember when we pointed out how bad child abuse was among christendom?
over the last few years, i haven't heard anything about the rampant abuse claims in christendom.
it's turning out that we have our own to deal with, a lot to deal with.
@Village Idiot
I like this thread but why are you calling it "our religion"?
Unfortunately for many of us, it is still indeed "our religion". Perhaps one day, we can say, "our FORMER religion".

@little_Socrates:
How long till the watchtower admits their mistakes and do everything possible to rectify them?
When the law suits and bad publicity are a daily topic on the evening news. We may be very close to that happening.
