I find both of your stories both familiar , painful and challenging. I do wonder though if you have thought this all the way through. Its a wonderful moment to come to , knowing you dont wish to belong there, and of course wondering if you have the stones to be a man and not sell part of yourself for any length of time to just evaporateor fade away
I realize in the midst of all this... the~one~ you were going for all these years to the KH to worship somehow gets overlQQKed and barely consulted because the other thing that happens to many(not necessarily you 2) is that you somehow identify GOD with the ORG. So when you leave the org you think you leave gos...
May I recommend a bit of spiritual journey of YOUR own.... ask for the assistance and be ready for the help and or answer.
I do have one other question .. and you can throw tomatoes if you like but it is about decsion and the clear cut nature of it. IF your spouse or parents said to you if you leave I am divorcing you....or disowning you..what would you do. WHO do you love more......yourself or them. Keep in mind, its hard to get out unscaved it may take a year or so. Also keep in mind all during this time you will have doubt about what its doing to your family. FOr all the truth the JWS are suppose to embody , its funny how telling the real truth alienates you from them.
I would say your best bet would be to find ~yourself~, gather some internal strength and CLARITY and then proceed.........a set of balls is not such a bad thing.. Especially when you are saving your own life in the process. Be ready to stand out in the cold......
I do speak from expereince here a year removed from it. I have nver been happier......I wish I could tell you that my marriage is wonderful but its not..but honestly, I do my best and respect anothers decision to do as they wish. I also require the same respect. EVERYONE should ..over some time this will not seem so foreign to you.
but what ever happens.............dont sell out!

I am posting this for the love I have of this world and for the many here who are struggling with this issue......
I just heard on a tape from Marianne Williamson,(healing the universe) here quoting Deepak Chopra about the united states #1 illness its called
ADDICTION
I post the following in the hope that one or two people may read this and understand the non judgement in it........merely observation.........

IN some ways it could be said to be a ~seductive power~........but make no mistake its real.
make no mistake many here are or have been wounded. I guess the reason I post this is to ask.............
does anyone here wish to put that wound away..... heal it and move on........
THE WTBS will just move right along with or without you....the question is........will you...........

. each soul has a mission in the earth, and is in statement a manifestation of the thought of God, of the First Cause. Thus all stand upon an equal basis before Him.
Then, ye have no right to condemn self or to judge others.
Let all be done rather, then, as an appreciation of the love, the thought as may be expressed in appreciation to that Creative Force called God.
And the greater lessons may be learned from His manifested activity in the earth through Christ Jesus.

Keep it [your soul] then in patience, in love, in gentleness, in kindness . . . For these are indeed the fruits of the spirit . . . And remember, a kindness sometimes consists in denying as well as granting those activities in associations with thy fellow man.

Present time energy is it's own transformer. The more energy you have in present time, the more voltage you can move through you.

Hence, in the fruits of that--as is given oft, as the fruits of the spirit--does man become aware of the infinite penetrating, or inter-penetrating the activities of all forces of matter, or that which is a manifestation of the realm of the infinite into the finite--and the finite becomes conscious of same.
