    When they resurrect all those who died for refusing life-saving blood transfusions or fractions.

    When they resurrect all those who died for refusing an organ transplant because the Watch Tower society equated transplantation to cannabilism.

    When they resurrect all those who committed suicide because the WTS instructed their families to shun them.

    So, obviously I will NEVER return.

    It is a Cult that worships itself and has little regard for the sacredness of life.

    I don't believe in God but I would want to associate with anyone that could make extraordinary predictions about the future that would be fulfilled in an unambiguous fashion without having any need of reworking the explanation.

    Essentially that's what JW's claim yet utterly fail to do.

    The point seems to be that you are afraid that they might be right. Its normal to have that nagging doubt. But it goes away with the passing of time.Remember,cults prey on fear. Not one thing that the wt has predicted has ever come true. They are always modifying the party line in order to try and keep some credibility.

    But they have never ever been right. Proof enough that they are not god backed.

    If they appointed me to be the GB. I would change everything and give all the money to those that deserve it.

    I could never go back, because for me it does not exist any more, but

    if, as others have said

    God (if any) would prove his existence as a CARING person, as a communicator, and

    a sisterhood- brotherhood of only truly humble friends - sans impostors,

    I would turn, not return to that future, possible real Ideal that we imagined we had, and disillusioned left for good. or the better.

    1) Be transparent: Expose much more information about the WT such as the number of excommunicated or deaths due to suicide or abstaining from blood.

    2) Abolish Excommunication (Keep public reproof or "noting") and favor honnest open discussions about the WT teachings: The truth should hold up by itself.

    Nothing. They are white washed graves. Users and abusers. Con artists with a get rich scheme off of your dime. They are book publishers, that rolled into a religion for great tax-free benefits.

    They figured out a great fear inspiring CON to keep kind and humble people afraid, and looking to Them for all the answers.

    It's a CON folks . Wake-up. Wake-up.

    Just Lois
