    I know this subject has been covered numerous times before, but the board constantly gets new people.

    How many here still attend meetings, go in service, etc. even though you don't believe it's the truth?

    Guilty as charged. I'm still a regular publisher and hate every minute of it and want out. I live amongst a dynasty of die-hard Witnesses, and when I go I will be the first mutineer in the family.

    Undercover Brother right here! I give talks, run the Sound, and begrudgingly go out in service.

    However, I am mentally disassociated and I have a big surprise planned for my exit.

    I was an "undercover brother", too, for quite a while. Although lately, my excuse generating machine has been working overtime. I have managed to avoid meetings for 2 1/2 months, now, but I will be at the DC this weekend.

    They still keep calling me for my time every month, and I keep giving them what they want - one imaginary family study, four hours and four RV's for me, four hours for my wife. So, I'm technically still in good standing.

    Matty - It sounds like you are truly going to "pioneer".

    Biggs: <MWUHAHAHA> You will tell us ALL about it, won't you?

    (((MATTY))) I feel your pain, man.

    Pain is the word SYN. No better word for it.

    My fantasy is go out with a bang like LittleToe, however I am much more likely to go out with a whimper knowing me.

    Don't be so hard on yourself, leaving is a hard thing to do, you'll do it when your ready, and you'll do it the way that is right for you, if that is to silently slip away, so be it. If you are meant to streak naked through the kingdom hall with I QUIT painted on your butt, so be it!

    Good luck to you when you finally do tho!
