6. What was the big thing that made you take the first step into questioning the Borg and start you on your way out? I was thrown into contact with "worldly" people at a business convention. They were people of all religions, Buddhist, Muslim, Hindu and Christian. I spent a lot of time with them, and reallized they were very devout, wonderful, loving people, just like me. I realized all religions are the same and that all the things my husband had told me were true and that JW's were not special. Ultimately reading C of C was the last straw. Then I realized they were actually corrupt.
