You make some interesting and revealing comments here.

:I see no secret plot at the top of our structure to control our minds the way some here suggest and even accuse.

Maybe if you read this board for more than a few days you might see it differently. This will require clear vision however and this may be an obstacle for you.

:I love Jehovah's Witnesses, who were the only ones who could explain the Bible to me in a way that was understandable and made perfect sense.

I think, if you were shooting for a more accurate statement you could have said that the JWs were the only ones with this unique interpretation of the bible that gave a much broader guarantee for a paradise life after death/end of the world. Unless you could show me where in the bible it says it is ok to accept "some blood components" and that Jesus was Michael the Archangel (among other non-sensical teachings) I must disagree that their interpretation makes "perfect sense".

:I am not going to be so ungrateful that I will turn and bite the hand that has fed me, like a rabid animal might do, just because I have a few little disagreements.

I see. I wonder if you had a child and let her die for lack of blood and the WT served up some "new light" on the blood issue afterward, making it "ok" to take blood, how would you feel? What if you had a child going through a rebellious stage get disfellowshipped for smoking and he killed himself because he was convinced he sould be shunned and then obliterated come the Big Day? How minor would you consider such disagreements? There are many people who have such stories to tell so this indicates that, even though you haven't suffered such ills by the hands of the WT, many of your fellow humans have seen the iron fist in the velvet glove. Are you telling us that you are ok with that and the WT is the religion you want to be associated with? Whose teachings you think will be the way to your eternal salvation? Do you consider those who have suffered such and now oppose the WT to be "rabid animals"?

Interesting.
