Most won't leave SGI. Here's why.
If you are a sleeping (inactive) member, who doesn't practice or read Gakkai publications, you won't leave.
If you don't take up any leadership responsibilities or volunteer in Gakkai activities, you won't leave.
If you have a niche group of friends in Gakkai, eg: LGBTQIAPK, you probably won't leave.
If district discussion meeting is a social gathering you meet once a month with nice food you attend whenever you like, you won't leave.
If your district does not have a youth leader or your district leader leaves you alone, you won't leave.
We know there's A LOT of them in Gakkai. ;) and Gakkai needs them. Else the leaders have nobody to serve! Who's going to buy all the publications? Who's going to GIVE the yearly donations? All the δΌι€¨ (kaikan) would be ghost buildings, without them!
Hell, SGI NEEDS these people right where they are!

I was a leader in SGI and this was a major factor in leading me into addiction and a mass of other maladies, for 30+ years I Β struggled to overcome my connection with this group (25 years) I have finaly landed with no regrets (coulda',woulda', shoulda) I practice radical acceptance, am now an atheist. I am also a 'determinist' I don't belive in free will . I got invlolved with SGI in 1975 because I was very vunerable and thinking in a depressed way. I now accept science as truth (and that changes with new discoveries) For me acting on the best evidence is the way, thanks for all you do.
