Whose truth? Howard was married to a jw, but was never one himself. He divorced that wife. So what truth does he mean?

That's what I'm wondering. Just given comments he made in the past I thought it might be a possibility.

Howard later embarked on his own exploration of the faith. As a young adult, he began to embrace the principles of the religion.
Now, 17 years later and with a Hollywood career that continues to ascend, he's very open about one ongoing personal conflict: his faith.
"I'm like most people in the world. I'm a little selfish in what I want. I like doing my thing, my way," the actor says. "In my heart, I wanted to be a Witness. If it wasn't for the smoking of cigarettes and all ... I would be a Witness."
The actor has yet to trade his spiritual aspirations for his professional ones. But he plans to pursue his desire to become an active Jehovah's Witness.
"Sometimes it takes awhile to be able to qualify. You have to qualify to run in the race. I'm exercising," he says.

Well, like Prince, Terrence has had a few moments where his mental sanity has been questioned, so yeah, I like it when folks in the public eye that aren't wrapped too tight make it known they're a JW.

This idiot is one of those Black lives matter fools. He supported the idiot Smollette after it was obvious he faked his attack.

Not surprising. Although JWs have some superficial things in common with conservatives, most are liberal at heart. A.K.A. not wrapped too tight 😅

@ neat blue dog...
Funny.
When I looked into the Christian Right a few years back, I saw the WTS writ large.
It was almost uncanny.
And in my personal experience, the vast majority of "liberal JWs" are XJWs.
The conservative ones tend to stay in.
But maybe it's a Canadian thing.
