  I can see the next Watchtower:

  Like Christ's return in 1914, many JW's are immitating his example and are describing their coming to the convention more as a parousia.

  True, to the blinded eyes of Christendom, they cannot see them. But for those with spiritual eyes, guided by the faithful and discreet slave, they can see the seats full to the brim with their brothers and sisters.

  With thunderous throngs of clapping and praise, these invisible ones are demonstrating their "presence" and appreciation for Jehovah's wifelike organization to those that have eyes to see and ears to hear.

  This emerging class of "invisible ones" are obviously not able to give financially as they would in the flesh. So, this provides a fine opportunity to give double, perhaps even triple your normal giving to cover the cost of expenses.

  Bets on how soon they’ll just be discontinued, simply because of how embarrassingly low the attendance is?

  Frag,

  It's past time to restart your meds.

  @vienne, i already knew you were a fraud when it comes to watchtower research

  but i didn't know you were a fraud practicer of medicine too

  but i'm not surprised

  you defend massimo introvigne

  you defend russell

  and you defend rutherford

  your playbook is the same as watchtower

  i know who you are vienne

  your lack of wisdom gives you away

  i am sorry for you

  and i am ashamed of you because of your conduct

  but i cannot help you

  since you embrace lies and desire glory from men rather than glory from god

  goodnight, vienne

  I'm not able to see the photo's, Lee. Is it because they're taken with an iPhone, or is my phone too old maybe?

  I don't defend anyone. What I defend is ethical practice. You make up almost every claim you make. That's immoral and unethical. Take your meds, Frag.

  Oh, I like that!

  "No, no, brothers! I was at the convention! I attended invisibly."

  as regards the title of the thread, lol

  how can jesus "come back" when he was never with watchtower leaders in the first place?

  even the historians of the organization know that

  just ask garth, right "vienne" 😉😉

  These types of Convention updates have been popping up over on Reddit alot as well.

  It's so "Happifying" to see the sparse attendance!

  Most CONventions have now been removed from the larger rented venues, to localized ASSembly Halls, such as the Grantville, PA ASSembly Hall. This progression has actually been coming for a while.

  It's like this:

  Summer District CONventions used to be held at the old hot-ass Veteran's Stadium in FilthyDelphia, for decades! Filled the entire place. (it was literal torture)

  The "Vet" was torn down, and they moved these to the smaller Santader Arena in Reading. (much smaller, but at least now indoors with A/C). This lasted a while.

  Several years ago, Martin Haugh and others started protesting the CSA cases, etc in front of the Arena, and it made many local news and newspapers. Attendance dropped some more. (COVID helped as we all know)

  Now, they did away with Santander Arena, and send everyone to Grantville ASSembly Hall. (built in 1972) I'm sure Ruhlman made $$$ off that somehow. Also, big thanks to Paul Oxenreider for not messing up the HVAC ductwork. RIP, ya old tin-knocker!

  They re-arranged Congregations in an attempt to fill up Grantville, but even THAT is not working! Place is half empty. Long ago, Grantville had a great kitchen and dining hall. Long gone. THOSE were the days! (except for that dreaded orange carpeting thoughout) It's less and less attendance.

  So when you look at this way, you can really see the hemorrhaging that is taking place. The "yang wanzzz" are leaving in droves, and middle-aged ones with any brain cells at all are voting with their feet, and with their wallets. C-ya, dumbasses!

  But hey! Keep not apologizing for your dumbass policies Jeffery Winder!
