Rather a tendentious objection, Alex. Any conversion story is going to be, by definition, a conversion "from" something "to" something else. If you want to defend Jehovah's Witness faith and morals, go right ahead, since I'm sure there's much to praise. Lou Everett, here, found some to praise, you'll notice (or perhaps you won't.)

However you can't tell a conversion story without a "before" and an "after."

And as for "denigrating beliefs," there's a difference between critique and "denigration." If there isn't, then there is very little point to the FR Religion Forum.

Honestly, I see no comments “denigrating” another belief. I see no part where he denigrated the JW faith/belief.

I see a guy writing of his spiritual challenges and difficulties and how he left a faith and found another that better met his spiritual needs.

He did not attack, mock, demean or otherwise denigrate JW.

All he expressed, as I read it, is his spiritual needs were not met by the JW faith. That in my mind is not denigration.

Non-Christian cults, especially those shaped to appear as “Christian”, is not something to worry about being insulted.

a Catholic or Catholics posting conversion stories has NOTHING about denigrating another’s beliefs.

Protestants are free to post “conversions of fallen away Catholics and why they ‘chose’ to ‘become’ protestants.

the one person that comes to mind that never fails to bash Catholicism is...

So the beliefs of Jehovah’s Witnesses are a-okay with you, right Alex?

It's usually the Left that keeps insisting that
"A Differing Viewpoint" = "Hate Speech"

Did you make a mistake here or truly intend to include the Jehovah's Witnesses in your Protestant fold ? I suppose they are a Protestant cult after all.
