They were the “rockstars” of the local area. Everyone knew, and wanted to be friends with The Bigelows.

Mike is a calm, rational and honest chap and as a father of two young boys the part about how his sons no longer talk to him hit me a bit.

Good to hear your story, and I can certainly empathise with the resultant loss of family ties as a sad result. I feel that though many may leave a Faith for reasons other than logic, these questions must be tackled eventually, otherwise people carry on post-Faith tortured with unnecessary anxiety, guilt, and confusion. What a species, this homo “sapiens”!

You can’t believe the age of the universe is so young if you also believe in astronomy and the speed of light.

Mike seems such a thoughtful, good, well spoken and clever guy. Fascinating stuff about Jehovah’s Witness doctrine from a personal and moving perspective. Great stuff!
