Wow, going to college is SO wrong and against the bible..... It should be illegal to imply to kids they shouldn't go to college. I know a young man recently baptized who testified proudly about turning down a college offer in the assembly, and his family is POOR. He could learn things and change his life, but is too afraid of being contaminated with "worldly people". Teach kids to be brave and strong! How about that?

As a labeled “Apostate”, I really get into my “activism” and must take little vacations from it because as far as I’m concerned, if I can save one mind, one life, I’ll put my heart and soul into doing it. But then you get drained of energy and have to rest and balance. My brother is a JW still but he’s in his 80’s and I want him to get out so badly because he’s so depressed. At the same time, it’s his only HOPE of seeing his wife again in Paradise, so I can’t imagine even risking even praying he’ll come away because he’s dedicated his life to WT. So I’m passionate about helping yet not hurting. I agree. You gotta step back and let go sometimes and rebuild yourself. 😢

It seems it's always a sad situation if there is doubt leaving or joining the Watchtower. Why is this. ? Because family and close friends have to be shunned. You have to give up ayour once happy life. The genuine Christian conversion is a very happy event and the person is full of joy and looking forward to a fruitful, spiritual life and assurance. Agreed ,family and friends wont join or agree but they remain family and friends. ! Watchtower is not advancing the Gospel which is the good news but continues to defend their warped evil doctrines.

Richard Dawkins makes an interesting observation in The God Delusion (Dawkins, 2006, p. 137 - 138). He states that the estimate of planets in the universe is a billion billion. He suggests that even if life originating spontaneously is the astronomical chance of 1 in a billion, that would still leave a billion planets on which life has potentially originated.
