Jehiah Tonnesen replied to Kari Stills's discussion 'What is the worst thing that has ever happened to you while being religious?'"They honestly believe that by shunning family it will bring them back to their "Truth."

Robert Karp replied to Jehiah Tonnesen's discussion 'Hello, Im Jehiah an ex- Jehovah's Witness'"Hi Jehiah and welcome. I'm sorry about your family and it's something we hear here very often.
