I used to be a Jehovah's Witness until I started reading the Bible in depth. Now I'm just non-religious.

You know, I never understood what kind of religion that was. Do they use the Bible? IS it some form of Christianity?

Yeah it's basically Christianity for "purists" if such a thing exists, though their beliefs are just as warped to me. JWs (I'm not writin that shit everytime) use a version of the Bible that they revised from the American Standard version called the "New World Translation" and take most of the text literally. They also believe that Satan was cast down from heaven on October 1, 1914.

There are a lot of other weird things that seemed odd to me (Death is just non-existence, only 144,000 christians will go to Heaven, no blood transfusions, etc) so I started reading the Bible myself (You're not allowed to study the Bible independantly, but my family never practiced that).
