    I would under one condition . . . . . . . .

    If they would allow me to make a pinata of J.F. Rutheford and beat it at the next Sunday meeting.

    No. I wouldn't want to associate with those idiots who tried to ruin my life, nearly wrecked our marriage, slandered me without getting the facts, pressuring me to go to meetings saying that I was un-spiritual when I was extremely ill and house bound. I can go on forever about why I'll never return.

    IRONHEAD.

    No, the organisation is rotten to the core starting from it's inception. NO way would I ever go back now that I know the truth about "the truth.

    I'm going out on a limb here and say probably YES.

    I've always felt that JW could be a pretty nifty religion... kind of if it was like JW Lite. Same great taste - Half the Guilt kind of thing.

    I mean... it's easy for us to say "no no no way" and stuff like that... But we all either picked this religion on believed in it somepoint in our life.

    I left because of the hypocrisy (amongst other things)... but put that aside - who knows.

    But in all honesty, I don't think it could happen - because even if the Gov Body said all these things... you go back to what Jesus said about the workers in the field.

    You would have the ones that worked all day (elders, etc) that would be like... "WHHHHHAAT??? I've been toiling here ALL DAY LONG with al these rules and I stuck with and NOW you invite all these Sinners and they get the same reward as ME???!!!!???"

    It would turn the organization upside down.

    Our reasons for leaving were not so much the insidious Watchtower doctrines. They (doctrines)played second fiddle as compared to the shisters Watchtower had no problem leaving in charge here under the guise of "elders".

    I told one of them once. (He was attempting to get me back to the hall) Why would I want to go back and see people that make my blood boil? Answer: Doh!

    I left the lie, for Truth, I can not go back to the lie! And as a non-profit corporation the authority over them is not God, but the State. Was Jesus incorporated? where did he get his authority, The State or God? No !
