I try not to but I struggle with it alot. Being raised Catholic i was subtly taught to respect others beliefs. They have a right to be wrong i thought. But applying critical thinking to the jw belief system and doctrines it has been easy to see thru their "we teach only what the bible says, what other religion does" blah blah blah infantile arguements. Ive struggled with my own religious upbringing too but for different reasons. Damn, i hate where my life is right now.
Do you judge your jw mate for their decision to become a jw?
