I noticed this part of your notes and wish to comment:
"the morbid way in which the WTS without hesitation looks forward to everyone who isn’t a JW killed at Armageddon, the teaching of hate of other people, and the outlandish comments from speakers while on the platform at DC’s. I guess in the past I have thought that some things were odd, but this time around the veil had been lifted."
I remember so vividly the way my husband and his JW friend and I would sit around and bash "worldly people". The ironic part was that we mainly did it when were drinking and socializing. Every worldly person who ever ticked me off would cause me to fantasize about their destruction and how much better my life would be when they were rotting corpses. I really thought we were better than them. I am so disgusted with the way I used to think. Thank you Winston for bringing that point out.
