Hi,
Completely brand new to this site and to Witnesses. A friend introduced me to the JW and I'm just learning all I can.

Catholic upbringing but always been open to other faiths and other religions. More into faith as a concept than I am religion, but I'm also just into learning. That's why I'm borrowing my friend's study materials and trying to read them with them.
No idea how to adjust settings or whatever on here!

Will do my best to! Got into the habit of reading the Day Text every day on my phone on the way to work. Wish I had a hard copy of it though as the writing on my phone is too small!

Rod,
I too am a non-jw. My interest piqued out of a love for a very dear friend. I attended a Catholic high school and college. I understand your doctrinal background. Like you, I see the value in a non-denominational perception of faith. I also am fascinated by other's beliefs. I believe most other non-jws respect and allow for variant perceptions of faith.
You and I probably share an aversion to slamming other faiths. Many of my friends are uncomfortable with my "concerns" for we all believe in the inappropriateness of challenging other's religion. But this is not religion as we know it.
Form your own opinion. Just know that I hurt for everyone this denomination touches.
And welcome!
