    Just saw it on another site..I was wishing it wasn't true. I wish people leaving the religion could see there actually is a life outside the JW community..you just sometimes have to look for it. My heart aches for "Oompa" and prays his family wakes up so his death will not be in vain. You will be missed..

    I've always hoped for a level playing field but it just does not happen. Life is not fair but I wish it was. If it was the evil would be held responsible for their evil deeds. Instead they masquerade as a religious organization.

    Never a JW you haven't a clue how much harm this cult can do to a person. You either stay in line or they'll rip your life as you know it right out from under you removing all your friends and family from you and having them treat you as if you are already dead or some evil monster. You might not be able to blame the WT for all the mental illness in the organization but you can blame them for exacerbating it and pushing some over the edge. They should be held accountable. They cause a lot of unnecessary suffering in Eric's life. That isn't what so called "Christian" organization are supposed to do.

    This is so sad, its about all I could think about all day. Please, anyone out there that has similar thoughts, see this thread and realize how many people care that you may not even realize and seek help, seek friends to talk to. This is such a tragedy.

    Yeah, I pretty much stayed awake most of last night thinking about Eric. I just can't put into words the way I feel right now.

    I. Don't post often-- but I visit every day and this sad news breaks my heart. I always looked for his posts and his funny avatar. Eric is at peace now.
