Nice breakdown. Here goes mine in abbreviated form:
Raised in the "truth"
Virtually no doubts during childhood
Never really liked going out in field service but did it because I had to. Pioneered so that I could justify staying at home with Mommy and daddy (kind of like every single person that pioneers today does)
Went to Bethel at 19, appointed MS at 20. Like I thinkisee I also noticed that it was all politics there..its who you know. My bethel work overseer used to take weekend trips and fly back on Monday and show up at 1 or 2PM and have us cover for him so that a vacation day wouldnt be deducted. Once he auxiliary pioneered so he would go out in service every morning and show up for work at 1... his overseer was non the wiser because we covered for him. He was an elder... so I guess in retrospect this gave me some doubts but like a good little JW I chalked it up to imperfection. Besides he was a great guy.
Left Bethel and got married. Generation change happened and still this didnt give me major doubts. In fact I fondly remember justifying this to some of our friends when they questioned this and also the "you can go to college now" thing. What an idiot I was!
Appointed an "elder" at 25.. 25, yeah right an elder. Looking back I have to admit that I really doubted holy spirits role in that one. Now I know it was because I was a company man and the elders liked me bottom line.
Began to be used full swing in the org. Service Committee fairly quickly, judicial committee's, called by CO's to sit in on elders complaints a couple of times (aka Special Committees that many dont realize even take place), public talks out to the entire circuit, etc, etc blah blah blah. You get the idea, idiot "Company Man" also had a kid during all of this despite the CO and DO's efforts to get us back in full time service.
Then the bomb dropped... 2002... pedophile scandal. It hit me like a ton of bricks. After the dateline aired I was in a daze for weeks... then went online and let google do the directing. I let down my previous inhibitions and read almost every anti-JW site out there. If they had policies in place that allowed innocent children to be harmed then that was it for me. They couldnt be god's org on earth.
So now here I am trying to figure out how to peacefully escape this corrupt book publishing company while leaving my family intact. How do I do it with my entire family deep in it...elders, CO's, pioneers, missionaries...
