I wonder how many have doubts about the GB teaching that only baptised JWs would survive the big A? Even then they still only say you may make it as with unbaptised kids of JDubs
i think most people physically in don’t agree with the GB on this and are hoping Jehovah would let other good people into the new world even if they are not baptised JWs
well if you think that then you are already PIMO to an extent
the brainwashing has has been so strong that if you doubt the GB then you may be shunned

We will never know the numbers. Individuals won't let on because of the dire ramifications of disagreeing with the Governing Body(tm) (Pee be upon them). The shunning/disfellowshipping(tm) proves the Watchtower(tm) is a cult....a big business pretending to be a religion so TOMO can remain permanently Brahms and Liszt on fine whiskey.
the Jobots that doubt will probably brush it off as 'they're just imperfect men doing their best.'
Wake up Jobots, these are disgusting Corporation(tm) men who probably don't believe in God themselves. Hence, why TOMO always seems to be drunk, slurring his words. Not to mention, they empower paedophiles willingly.

IMHO, it's a pity people have to believe in Jehovah(tm) or any God at all. I wouldn't say I'm an atheist as such, more awaiting evidence that an invisible man in the sky exists.
I reserve my judgement on a God/s until I see actual evidence. Not the psychosis of tribes that believe because that's what their culture told them.

Who said there's going to be the "BIG A"?
So salvation only comes through an organization that hasn't got one Bible prophecy right in a 150 years? I'll take my chances by being declared righteous though faith in the Ransom sacrifice of Jesus.

I never believed only JW would survive. i also thought all those descriptions of meaning for various verses in the Revelation Book were sheer conjecture-( like witnesses were the locusts running up the wall) When I think back on it there were tiny bells of doubt in my head, but I felt they were the Bible students who knew more than me.

Even JWs won't survive Armageddon if they don't fully trust and obey the Watchtower Faithful Slave.
The only way they can be assured of a place in the new system, is to die before the tribulation starts. It's in Bible-based Literature.

What is their official teaching that only baptized JWs will survive God's war?
Of course they teach that because that is their carrot and whip to lead people.
But we know that is not the case, because many good non-Jws will survive too.

The whole biblical concept of a divine war against evil humans is horseshit. Why bother discussing it.

I doubt wt has any authority to offer, or guarantee survival. On the record, Their promise of "millions now living will never die " in 1918 is now proven baseless ( a 118 year old nun just died) she was not a potential Armageddon survivor either, , not being baptized into the spirit directed wt organisation.
If you take the bible seriously though:
a) An angel or 2 could in one night or day sort out all the good ones , (see exodus / passover and survival of the firstborn, sheep and chickens too).
b) Angels could protect the chosen ones even in a nuclear holocaust, at > 9000 degree kelvin ( see 3 hebrews +1 in the 7x hotter furnace).-- now,
if only there really was a talking snake for the angel angle.

The basic requirement for salvation is faith in Jesus Christ. God doesn't check if you're 100% in your doctrinal understanding before you get saved.
