    Its nice to know others came to the same conclusion I did after doing something as simple as using common sense.

    No, I left on my own. I sent many years forcing myself to believe it was the truth. It did, however, help me realize that life after the org was worth living.

    Like Gary Buss, I left before Al Gore invented the electron.

    I left in 81.

    Because 1976 didnt seem any different than 1975.

    It took me 5 years to figure out, I didnt have to go to the meetings and nothing would happen.

    Just like Armegeddon.

    I had already left when I found this place. I didn't do any reasearch; it just didn't seem right. The net made me comfortable in my new path.

    My husband first found this site when we were still in. He was df'd at that time and I thought he was just being disgruntled when he would point out things that he found out here. He was patient I was a slow blonde. I finally realized he didn't just have a chip on his shoulder and that Jw's were hypocrits.

    We found out about the UN thing and left.

    I love this site.

    I had already left a couple of yrs before i came here. This site helped to unprogram any remnants of wt belief that could cause me to doubt that i did the right thing in leaving. It also dislodged me from christianity.

    It kept me from getting in. Does that count? I was put off by the memorial, but I was still a study and making good progress. Visiting here, reading the Best Of threads and following discussions made me realize that the JW truth is not the truth I am looking for.
