"So this means because so many people react is so many negative ways when my JW opinions are expressed, it excludes me from joining in the interesting topics."



Why should it exclude you?..................If in your opinion a topic is interesting, it is possible to stay on track without bringing your JW beliefs into it. Lets say for the sake of argument, that someone posted a thread on the merits of petrol as opposed to diesel, and you had an opinion on the said merits, there would be no reason to bring your JW beliefs into it would there? In other words you discuss/debate the subject in hand .................Can you see my point?

 

I think you resented and still resent, the fact that several forum members objected to the incessant introduction on many diverse threads of your JW beliefs,

 

 

"I never take things personally, even when it may seem as ridicule I don't take offence because we are all entitled to our opinions. The important thing is we all respect each other."

Spot On! ….......We are all entitled to our opinions (and it works both ways) but do we have to force our opinions down the throats of those who do not agree with us? And yes..........we should ALL respect each other, but having been a member of this forum from day four, I can tell you sadly, that history in regard to this forum has often led to a lack of respect.



Always remember....... It is impossible to be liked by everyone 🙂



As for Cee Dee's original question, I know why several once very regular posters have given up posting

but it would be imprudent to say why.
