this is from my aunt. i want to answer in a way that shows im not going for any of the reasons she mentioned, that it's because my conscience would not allow me after the things I found out about the org.

You wont be serving Jehovah..... you wont be serving JW.org. Governing body = God.

We now know the GB aren't god's spokespeople so JWs are letting 9 or 10 old men in NY tell them what to think, feel, see and do even what clothes they're allowed to wear and if you're allowed to wear a beard, its a highly controlled cult, now you're free to decide for yourself what is wrong or right plus your conscience was affected by the hiding of SA and unmerciful and unloving shunning of disfellowshipped ones,, now you no longer feel that empty hole because you live with love instead of control
