I said these words to an elder friend of mine while out in the ministry: "I dont want to get to 60 (i was 30s) and find it's just another cult!"
well those words never left me and when the time was right I decided not to wait until I was 60 to find out and to to make damn sure what I was born into either was the truth or was not. I gave the JW religion every chance to prove itself to be "the truth", it failed repeatedly. I the gave the bible every chance to prove itself, it too failed repeatedly. The god of the gaps was nonexistent. I am now a happy atheist.
The killer blow for me though was 607 being proven to be utter bollocks.
