I have noticed that there are different reactions to learning the "truth about the truth". Some become quite bitter and angry and become very activist. Others seem to just move on quite easily.
When I first learned of the many scandals and cover-ups in the WT, it didnt make me angry. I just thought "Huh. Well at least now I know." I was also able to put any guilt and fear to rest, realizing I had been duped and no longer had to live in guilt and fear. It was a great feeling!
i sort of understand why some get very angry and resentful about lost years. But I'm not sure how healthy it is to remain in that state. And while photographing youself giving a Kingdom Hall sign "the finger" might have some therapeutic value, it seems kind of juevenile. Some go from believing everything the WT says, to believing everything apostates say. And frankly, its not all believable. On the internet facebook group, someone said that WT marriages were now required to provide proof of virginity. It turned that the person was not telling the truth, but it was disappointing how many believed it and said, "I heard that, too!"
at what point do you move on from the bitterness and anger? When does it become unhealthy and counterproductive?
