    What I was referring to about real truth was doctrine such as Christendom's view on Hell, Soul, Death, Trinity, etc., etc.. As for those remaining in the WTS, I'm confident that the time will come when they become tired of the milk and desire some solid food... whatever that is. Those seeking will find.
    The WT society has lactose intolerance after seeing the food that the adults of 'stupid christendom' are eating. They simply don't want to 'eat' that stuff. i.e. solid food like - give away all you have, and - help the unsavory street people, and - love your enemies.

    Hence all the excuses and accusations of a stubborn child, making up fantasy stories and saying blah blah blah blah with their ears stopped. Let them go to bed without their dinner then. I can accept just about any religion on the face of the earth as containing some christian ideals, but when it comes to the WT, "I don't know who they are"

    Yes, I am grateful for what I learned in the jw religion.

    However, the jw religion is a fundamentalist type
    religion(extreme literalists), and I eventually outgrew that.

    Now I feel that I have come full circle and can appreciate
    ritual, storytelling, singing as a way to invoke the
    presence of God.
