An Informal Discussion
There was a brother who, quite honestly, was very well educated and received
exceptional grades while in school. His family outside of Jehovah's Witnesses
encouraged him to become a doctor and they were willing to pay for his college
tuition. Instead, he opted to become a pioneer and as an occupation decided
to become an office cleaner.
The Things that were Lost
Many on this discussion board gave up comfortable livelihoods, education and
careers because of the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society. The opportunity to
go to college on a football scholarship was lost, because my beliefs that "we
are living in the time of the end" kept me busy in "theocratic activities."
Personal Accounts
How about yourself? Can you identify what you lost while being in the "truth"?
And so, that this discussion does not primarily focus on a downward spiral,
can you identify some of the positives that you acquired while being out
of the organization?
This discussion has the possibility to help out numerous individuals such as
yourself. Can you please give us some insight so that others can learn?
Respectfully,
The Wanderer
