Am I wrong or does this describes all the generations including the overlapping generation of the Watchtower?
The Sign of peace and security
The Sign of the U.N. attacking religion

Yes. And from this vantage point in my life as an inactive ex-JW who is not DFed- I can still have hope to eventually get one or both of my adult daughters out of the JW cult - with time and patience. I have all the time in the world now to do it right , correctly, and with patience. Peace out, Mr. Flipper

Like everyone has said,
Yes it was damm worth it.
I lost all my friends that I built up over a lifetime. I lost a great woman of almost 30 years and we had a great marriage. I lost a great life style, a big home, and about a million dollars in the bank went to legal fees for the divorce and unbeknown to me, hundreds of thousands went to the Watchtower. And now I am living in a small apartment about 500 square-ft. And it’s hard to build up another large group of friends at this late point in my life.
But once you get through the hell of knowing you were scammed and a victim of a cult, the feelings and emotions of the freedom you now have are indescribable.
I need to have a measure of truth in my life. I could never go back to the WT and live a lie. Even if I would get back everything I’ve lost, I just couldn’t go back.
And like JakeM2012 said:
just glad not to be going to the Kingdom Hall every other day and twice on the weekend. Add in the time lost in Elders meetings, working on the kingdom hall, doing the lawn maintenance etc, and building other peoples kingdom halls. The time that the religion consumes is just unbelievable.
Was it worth it? …... No god and no justice and no afterlife.
My advice to you is;
That’s an assumption that you can’t proof absolutely and never will in this lifetime. So it really doesn’t matter if you do believe or don’t believe or don’t give a hoot.
Once I realized that we will never know those things you mentioned, I stopped searching for A complete answer. Then my life started getting better mentally and emotionally. Now I can concentrate on my physical well being.
Things do get better with time and a little effort.

California Out of Water Soon
by Village Idiot inlook closely at the figures below and see how much water california has left from its major source of water the sierra mountains:.
my advice, not that any politician would take it, would be to eliminate most agriculture in the state.
almonds, rice and alfalfa, are all thirsty water guzzling crops that neither those in california nor the rest of the nation needs.

Many are also experts on WT procedure, as outlined in the OD and KS books.
I remember in judicial hearings we would always say," Lets see what Mother has to say" Never, "Lets see what the Bible had to say"
