If you want a newbie's report it's now or never, in 1 or 2 days it'll be too late.
Nothing special with me, I'm still a JW, inactive, accompanying my wife to the TS and service meeting when she wishes to, which is not always. I want the whole family (wife and teen son and daughter) to attend the WE meeting in order to hear a Bible based talk and keep informed about new WT topics (daughter loves drawing on mags too) , sit comfortably, have a rest and reflect but, as I told the 2 elders who came to pay me a sheperding call one month ago, I consider it as a routine practice, the way I would do in christendom, since I don't view myself as a militant JW anymore.
Told them that preaching one hour a month or nothing was the same so I would do just as well not to preach at all. Why so ? they asked. I said that the message we preach is plainly monstruous : there are, according to demographic charts, about 600 millions babies and infants under age 4 in the world at the moment, not even Molech did require such a slaughter to "vindicate" his sovereignty. Jehovah simply can't be that sort of god. In addition, His justice will keep Him from destroying poverty by means of destroying the poor. Surprisingly, there was no hostile reaction on the part of the 2 elders and we found that we agreed (I guess that that the older one regretted having brought the younger one along, though). In the end, I told them that I prefer to keep silent and rely on Jehovah's justice since, as the CO had warned me last year, any discourse different from the official one would be apostate.
I keep silent during meetings and don't attend the book study anymore, so as not to weaken the brothers' faith with stray comments (was priviledged with a warning talk from the platform about dangers of free speech) . So, why are you staying in, you might rightly ask ? Because if I DA or be DFed (I might be, though, if I'm too vocal), my wife will be in a ghetto, her JW friends won't visit her at home anylonger. Second, I've not found any alternative satisfactory religion yet , but I'm open to offers. Mind, it'll have to be satisfactory ! Conclusion, life is full of contradictions which we have to assume.
Apart from that, the kids have long since understood that I leave them total freedom to choose. Since I got baptized past 30, they have plenty of time to reflect. Besides, all their friends are out of the congregation) . That's all, folks !
