Publisher's Summary

This book is part memoir, history, exploration, and critique of the Jehovah's Witness religion. I was born and raised as a Jehovah's Witness. Eventually, I found myself shunned due to actions considered unacceptable by the leaders of the religion at the time.

I lost everything except the shirt on my back and the shoes on my feet. I faced a series of personal setbacks as a result of being cut off from childhood friends and family.

After rebuilding my life about ten years later, I investigated the organization that caused me so much pain. I found that it wasn't just me but many others. I finally decided to examine the history of the religion, which would be a shunning offense if I hadn't already been shunned.

This book reflects my current understanding and beliefs about the religion and my critiques about its flaws, hypocrisies, and threats to peoples well-being. It also addresses the organization's history from 1844 to the modern day. Finally, the last chapter contains one hundred questions for Jehovah's Witnesses- questions that go unanswered.

Great critical analysis of doctrine and hypocrisy.

an amazing history, doctrinal explanation and critical analysis of this high control group. Owen told much of the story as a first-hand survivor, which I am as well, but also told there's no way that would be understood by anyone. I think you should definitely read this book if you're at all interested in learning about this high control group.
