I'm American, a Swiss wife....did we ever meet? If you were in Europe a lot maybe we did. What was your name.
We weren't always in Europe, but more here than the other places, India, Pakistan, Brazil, Russia, etc. (Here's a list of the names I had: Resheph, Michael, Timothy --the name changing seems so ridiculous now-- I used my legal name Michael for a while when Mother Eve got us into that in the later 70's. My wife's names were Sara, Praise, and Margrit...her legal name is Verena Margrit..... now I call her Verena. So we're Mike and Verena.)
Thanks for giving me credit for reasoning skills etc. I think that there are still lots of people in the F who are intelligent, and who are capable of reasoning. But when you're in the reasoning is heavily influenced and is very incomplete.
I think many of them stay in the F simply because they are convinced they won't have a decent or fulfilling professional future if they leave. When we joined we forsook school and training. We stopped working on getting certified and/or qualified. Also F life style is not very demanding. So many members problably think they are better off in the F. And the constant flow of GNs and peer pressure keeps you hyped up with the special elitist calling F members supposedly have.
Some F members have started their own charities and have been successful. That has given them fulfillment too.
As far as I personnaly am concerned I have more to add to my answer to your questions. When I can I will post more. If I don't remind me too.
