Hello miss interpret, I was a JW and I don't mind you asking. I don't offer the specific until someone asks however. This is because my entire family who now shun me believe my now lot in life is to bash their religion. I do make a point to speak out about the horrors that often go on within that religion, but I try not to evangelize it like they like say I would do.
Just like voters should get information packets about propositions, citizens should know what they are getting into with high control religion. I noticed growing up in the religion, and even now especially, that the general public are unaware of their nature and their actual activities and dealings. If I were to go to a mall and interview 100 random people almost all of them would have extremely limited knowledge of my past group. This is troubling to me because I know that my past religion has a habit of only showing a certain side of themselves to the public. This is undoubtedly the reason for the information gap in general.
So, on one hand I feel compelled to speak about them because of that gap, but on the other I don't want to make them right in that I am just a disgruntled ex member looking to bash their name. It's a struggle for me and daily pickle.
Anyway, thank you for asking.
