Thanks Rachel and Ben

for answering my question. You are both definitely right! I will just leave things as they are. I really don't know what i was thinking. I had been actively involved with the JWs for about 8 years. There were many questions I didn't ask I guess mainly because everything in the knowledge book seemed to make sense to me. What I didn't know was all the things they seem not to speak of in front of un- baptized ones. I'm sure you both understand what I mean. Ya know the hidden rules about how you must act in a certain person's presence, how you must dress, what information you shouldn't share so as not to scare a newcomer away(even though this newcomer has placed their trust in you to be honest)oh and don't let me forget to mention the free will that Jehovah so generously gave to us, noone mentions that they take it away from you!!! I am no longer going to allow them to judge me because afterall isn't Jehovah the judge? He reads hearts and Jesus told us not to judge your brother! oh, and I guess they forgot that we are all brothers and sisters, afterall we came from the same two parents. I thank God for opening my eyes about this organization, and for opening my eyes to see so many beautiful people in this world again. How could I have ever thought we were the only ones who knew the right way.


Thanks guys I guess I just need to vent.
