No, they really are good people. They've just been trained to believe that you can't associate with people who have "abandoned God." I have no doubt that if/when they do find out that they will be very hurt.

Not really. I bear no ill will towards any members. I met many good people throughout my life as a member. As Rstar put it, it was the legalism that turned me off of it, not most of the people.
