I would like to see a fast burn. But, it will probably hang on and affect numerous more families.
How do you think that the Watchtower Society will react to its demise?
If we're not careful and don't do a thorough job it will metamorphose into some religious cult that will state it is God's only channel on earth - which will be believed by millions.
Just wondering...

I couldn't do the slow fade thing. I didn't burn the books, just tossed them in the recycle bin. We have burning laws here, and you can't burn your trash anymore. It felt good to get rid of all those magazines. OMFG there were a lot of them. Over the period of 5 years, about 8 per week. it added up to a lot of mags. Well, they filled my big recycling bin. I just hope nobody fished them out before they have a new life being a McDonnald's wrapper.
I used to carry my whole WT library with me where ever I moved. I didn't read it much, I just thought I was holding on to some truths (man those boxes were heavy). One day I just forgot them somewhere's, I can't even remember where.....
There will always be JW's. I think pretty soon we will see a dramatic drop, but many will remain and a few will be added. They will always explain that those who leave are wicked, rather than try to find out if they need help or are reaching out. The more that leave, the more they are right.
Slow burn.......
