At least I can walk away if I choose, but I really feel for those of you as young girls being raised as JW's....thinking this kind of treatment was normal. And also for the young boys who were taught that they're somehow superior....what a HUGE disservice to them and the women of the world.
I was actually raised Catholic but drifted away from that as I got older. And I know how highly JW's think of Catholics.      But I have to say that of all the time I spent at mass, CCD, and so forth - I never recall one bad thing said about any other religion or denomination. And the same goes for any church I've been to since. So I guess I'm wondering if JW's are so strong in the "Truth" and their faith, then why do they continually put down every other religion known to man?? I just think if they spent less time condemning everyone else and predicting everyone elses' fate, they might have more time to study their own doctrine and religion's history and see what a load of crap they're being fed. Sorry...just blowing off some steam.
