    Sounds like the cult of reality has a very strong hold on you .

    Welcome Bradley. Glad you have joined us here. It takes awhile for us to lose that excess baggage the society has provided us with. But the load gets lighter with time. Take care.

    Welcome aboard. These stories of family separation due to disagreements on sincerely-held beliefs is getting pretty darn old. Sorry to hear it. Enjoy college.

    Welcome, Bradley. I'm sorry you experienced such unkindness from your brother in law.

    It's always amazing to me (even while I was a witness) the way they treat those who doubt. If they want us to come back, how would cutting you off accomplish that?

    I wish you well..............and hope you like our little world, here.

    Welcome to the board, logansrun.

    Sounds like your b-i-l is running scared! (and to speak for your sister, too!, what a mind-control group!)

    Hey Bradley! Welcome here. Now I got to tolerate you here too? LOL This is a very good alternative to Tims board. Enjoy!

    Amazingly, I never received any elders visits. I was able to just "walk away." (This was quite a shock to many people as my exit was sudden. I even conducted the bookstudy the week I left) Fortunately, my mother is a "liberal" JW and my best friend is a non-believing JW (he's only in it for the girls, hehe); they still talk to me. The rest do not.

    I was wondering about that same thing! Many here have done or are doing a gradual fade. I no longer attend meetings regularly, but do go to about 1 a week. I was curious to see if any had just suddenly "disappeared". Glad to hear that you now have a life! Welcome!

    As always, I congratulate anyone who was able to walk away from the WTS with their sense of independence intact, not to mention freedom to pursue intellectual interests. Welcome and make yourself at home.
