I had some relatives stop in Saturday they were in town for a wedding, hard core Jw's, he's an Elder has been for years and years.
Anyway I was surprised on how the visit went. I have not seen them in a couple of years they of course must know
that we do not attend. People talk around here....lol Not anything really came up about "The Truth" which we find
so shocking. These are people that don't hold back anything.
On the way out one point came up about the gas and book study combo now, What did surprise me was that she said
"Everyone is tiring out" They got talking about funerals and what their plans were. I could see they No longer think they will make it
into the New system idea alive. They along with my mom and hubby's mom seem to really thinking about things. Yet the fear factor
prevents total questioning and openness.
Eyes they have but they can not see.......Ears they have but they can not hear........

That is Good News Hope, more JWs tiring out and getting discouraged. Not good news that they have wasted their lives and so much time and can't see the light, and.the fact that the Watchtower Society is a Lie.
I know they are your family and it must hurt to see that they can't quite understand what is going on.

I hope that means more people on this board. And more stories about how the witlesses ruin lives.

There will be many that, while they are tired, they are too tired to make a change. If you have given most of your life to a cause, it may be preceived to be too late to change course.

more JWs tiring out and getting discouraged
The fear factor as Hope4others pointed out seems to be the only reason so many stay in. Just for them to make that statement means they are thinking! Maybe they will be on here one day soon!!!

What is so odd we feel is that they say nothing...you would think
that they would be "Encouraging us" or telling us "The end is near".
Do you think in 10 yrs they are just respecting that perhaps we have valid points?
Are are they just afraid too really ask how we feel about things?
I should not complain, I'm just really curious no one will "Go there with us" -

I haven't heard that phrase for a long time "Tiring out" And so they should be. They working for something that will never come.
They will only ever see when they want to see.....or they have seen but are too comfortable to leave.
