    Hang in there.. It has to be tough. My heart goes out to you. We have a hard time even driving by a Kingdom Hall, makes our hair on the back of our necks stand on end. We are both born ins. Most of our family are uber dubs.

    The lack of love is what woke us up. Once we started doing research on the religion we were raised in, it was all over for us. It's amazing how much we didn't know. No wonder the GB warns the JW's rank and file not to read anything negative. They have a lot to hide and a lot of blood on their hands.

    "Whispers, self-rightousness, and judgement." It's the only thing the JW's are really good at. lol

    I remember I wrote my letter like yesterday, what a relieve I felt! Just do it, it's a waist of time being an elder ..

    i was the magazines / territory servant in my late teens / early 20's. also a regular pioneer and did public talk home and away.

    when i heard the watchtower was going to start elders i cringed---why copy the mormons ? apparently the congregation servant had put me down as an elder--so i think he was a bit put out when i resigned from the cult.

    this was in 1971
