    Would you have not taken a transfusion? Would you make sure that your child was deprived of one, too? Would you have turned in your own family member to the elders?..........Just how far would you have gone in showing allegiance to the cult?

    i went as far as regular meeting attendance, being submissive to the jerk ex.., teaching my kids from " infancy", and going out in service.. is that loyal enough?

    at 5 years old I announced in class that I refused to salute the flag....dragged literally to the principal's Office....they called my parents...who were thrilled of course...big stink...finally ironed out...

    shunned some friends growing up...feel bad now but at the time my brain was totally washed....would love the chance to share a beer, coffee, cigar...whatever and a good conversation about the old days.

    I probably would have died for not taking blood. "Probably".

    I basically disassociated myself from my dad's side of the family because my dad was not a Witness and they went through a really crappy divorce pitting an "apostate" lawyer against my moms "Society" lawyer. Talk about creating a black and white picture of good and evil!

    I basically bailed on my dad and any fatherly expectations he had for me to be successful in this world or pursue college or sports or my musical talents.

    I resigned myself to a life of "existing" while waiting for the end of this system of things. In some ways I think quickly dying for a cause would be much more pleasurable.

    How sick sounding is THAT?
