Why not just wait for undeniable facts to surface as to why he is no longer a GB member ? instead of postulating all of these scenarios ?

for the PIMO question as to A. Morris
by enoughisenough inhave the rank and file been told not to "gossip", or "question" about mr morris yet?
i am mindful of how questioning decisions was discouraged and being told to keep things confidential.
( maybe too soon, but do share if a special needs part comes up) you would think that common sense would tell them they cause the questions when they don't share reasons.

May 23 Watchtower
by Listener instudy article 22 is headed.
"keep traveling on the "way of holiness".
this article states that since 1919, having left babylon the great in that year, jws today are traveling on 'the way of holiness" (a figurative highway) as it takes them through the spiritual paradise and leads them through to future kingdom blessings.. they say that 'preparatory work' of that highway began centuries earlier.

Isn`t the very name JEHOVAH in error ? Isn`t it more correct to say that the pronunciation of God`s name is more likely YAHWEH or even YEHOWAH or some such thing ?
Certainly not JEHOVAH.
You would think that those who proclaim to be his witnesses would get the pronunciation of his name correct wouldn`t you ?

Let me explain if I can ,I didn`t become a JW until my very late teens 19 and more likely close to 20.
So I had a reasonable life outside of the influence of the religion before I got hooked.
Even though I was in it for the best part of 30 plus years before I left ,I consider apart from the religion I have had a pretty good life .
I have probably been out now for over 20 years ,and even in it we had a reasonable good life style overall.
I know this hasn`t been the case with many of you people.
If you care to share some of your experiences I`m sure many of us would like to hear it .
My first couple of Congs.were in Melb.Aust. and were very conservative ,not much joy their.
Having moved to S.E.Qld the congs.their were much more liberal and we fitted in quite well, going out for meals at resturants having a few ales along the way and going to each others house for get togethers etc ,
And after leaving the religion I have made many friends at the few clubs i go to for socialising and having a couple of ales.,a few times a week .
I will be 84 this year and i`m not looking forward to dying anytime soon ,how about you ?

, one should also test the Bible's claims with science. For some examples, one should test using science the following claims of the Bible: non-evolutionary special creationism (including the first man being made directly from dirt less than 10,000 years ago); life existing on Earth for no more than 10,000 years or no more than 49,000 years (7 times 7,000 years); that none of the stars (not including our Sun) begin their existence millions of years before our Sun; that our planet Earth really come into existence before our Sun; that plants on Earth really come into existence before our Sun began emitting sunlight and even before our Sun came into existence; there really a flood (especially a global one) of Noah's day in the past 5,000 years (with animals of all kinds being in the Ark); Hebrews being slaves in ancient Egypt and later making a mass exodus to Canaan; was Jericho destroyed when the Bible claims it was and by the means the Bible claims; is there really a personal creator God who has interacted with humans and directed human history; did the 10 plagues really happen upon ancient Egypt; does intercessory prayer really work (is there statistical evidence it works better than without intercessory prayer to heal people); was Jesus Christ actually resurrected to eternal life; is there scientific proof that demons or any other spirit beings really exist (such as proof that any spirit beings interact with humans in ways which make obvious their interactions); was there ever a time during the past 500 million years when predatory animals did not exist (for example when none of the animals living long ago killed another animal for food, or instead have scientists found skeletons of animals within the rib cages of other animals from millions of years ago); etc.
