Hard nuts part 2
by Nathan inthanks for sharing your experiences and ideas about how people leave.
themes were that people leave when they are ready, when they take an honest look at their beliefs and open their mind up to information from outside of the organisation, and i guess, other personal factors.
the timing and individual are important here.

Who aren't the hard nuts?
by Nathan inmost people i know basically believe that jws are unconvertible from their faith.
this, i believe, comes from their dissappointments and frustrations at being able to convince jws to convert, or even just to leave.
i work in the counselling field and we have a similar problem with 'difficult' clients who also don't seem to respond to anything.

A call for "essays"
by Decidedly_Unsure insomeone, i believe it may have been farkel, suggested that there are no more meaty doctrinal issues to be discussed on this board.
that being the case, i would like to solicit the help of the more capable posters on something that could be of tremendous help to, not just myself, but perhaps other lurkers as well.. the requirement is for someone like myself who is still actively attending only because of a close family member or friend who is still in.
assuming that individual, like many jdubs, has a couple of nagging doubts, there is a need to introduce the real truth about the truth.

Interesting discussion with some JWs
by Nathan ini had some jws visit me today and meet for the first time.
the time has left me feeling sad and confused.
i learnt some interesting things about these two individuals.. firstly, the man launched straight into his 'good news'.
