I think the active JW will never respond as they are here in total fear! I would love to see a response though!

au contraire, Beans! I am a current, active JW. I'd say I attend about 70% of the time. I stopped going to the bookstudy for now until the completion of the Isaiah book. I just couldn't take much more of it. I'm trying to do a s-l-o-w fade and got some encouragement from JT saying it's a "process." I totally agree.

I'm probably around the same as FlowerPetal... I would estimate that I miss an average of one meeting a week, possibly more. Planning on reducing my attendance even further, shortly.

I miss as many as I can.
Working on the slow fade.

Yes attendance is down...most of JW are getting tired of the whole Org thing. So many years and the end didn't come...well there is something wrong...Specially after the "new light" regarding the generation you see that they don't have that zeal they used to have in the 80's. At least not in the western world were internet and media are so massive. They still have the ex-communist countries that people don;t have an idea of the cults...put time will show more reduced numbers for sure

I havent gone to a meeting for over 3 months, honestly dont even know when I last attended.
Only a handful of friends from the hall still contact me...one lives 1/2 hour away and the other 2 email me to see if I am okay. Other than that, not a peep. Not sure how to handle the "fade", I just stopped wanting to serve a man made organization - I felt closer to God before I became a witness, now I just feel I am never "good enough".
