There are many sites and postings that tell why the Jehovah’s Witnesses are wrong, how they cover up child abuse, the blood issue, etc. and plenty devoted to why they are wrong from a Christian/religious point of view. The information you are highlighting is also very helpful to many people.

Thanks so much for this. I was never baptised but was raised as a JW. I’ve hardly been involved in the religion for 10 years but still find myself so repressed by it, and so fearful of forsaking a God whose “true religion” I don’t even believe in. I’m sure this will be a huge help.

I just want to say, I have grown up in the JW religion as a child and I suddenly realized that it's all got to do with FEAR! You grow up being told that whoever, even if it's family, that aren't JW they are going to die -- even they have a lovely heart without a religion! I cried because they told us my aunty is going to die, when we told her about how our religion works and I couldn't help but get angry at my aunty for not wanting to join with us! Today, I realize that, joining up to this religion is all about FEAR and the world is going to end in days. But why, I may ask, why do you let little children young as five, suffer from being themselves and letting them grow up to «think for themselves as an individual»? We are all individuals, yet, the JWs take that away from us! I grew with FEAR all around me! I was always being told that the world is a terrible place -- but those JWs don't know what they are missing out on! They are telling us «worldly» people that we are wasting our time getting rich and going to college or whatever it is that we want to our lives...but what they don't know is that, in the JW religion, you are always being told what to do because it is Wrong to think for yourself! WHY is it wrong to think for yourself? Ask them that! If a JW comes knocking on your door, ask them «Why is it wrong to think for ourselves?» I'm letting you know, JW religion isn't the place to be! FEAR is NOT a main subject to grow up with entirely!

Thank you for this first class publication. I recently left the JW organization after being a faithful follower for many years. The information you are highlighting is extremely helpful to many people. Keep up the good work and I look forward to the next issue.

Moxie,

Let me be the first to congratulate you and your colaborators on a truly quality production. Quite frankly, I’ve not seen any online covering ANY SUBJECT that is as professionally done and pleasing to the eye.

I’ve downloaded my copy and will read it over the next few days. I will put up a brief reference to your site and your new magazine on Ex-JW.com later this week.

What more can I say? Nice job! Very, very nice!
