For Witnesses Who Want To Leave Fade, Disassociate or Get Disfellowshipped?

by minimus in

jw
friends

my opinion is if possible fading is the best way to go..

They may actually hope the outliers fade if they switch to mostly online, that way they're out of the way, and then if they stop reporting hours they can count all irregulars and faded and keep high numbers.

by MattyR in

it seems they are encouraging jws to get vaccinated.

not directly but a subtle suggestion.

it seems they hinted a possible return.

Vaccines are a personal choice. Just like beards, entertainment and dress & grooming.

Any Old-Timers Remember this Kingdom Melody?

by Sea Breeze in

we used to sing a slow song in the late 60's and early 70's that went something like : "don't be afraid of them that can kill the body buy cannot kill the soul" .... or something like that.does anyone remember that one?.

It's still in the song book BUT-- while that line about body and soul used to be sung at the end of every verse in the chorus, they changed that part done you only sing it once, so as not to draw too much attention to this problematic scripture

What could be said about violent radical republicans?

I don't know, what COULD be said of this mythical creature? Even at the capital walk-through, one person was killed and it was one of their own, so . . .

Will there be a sense of urgency in 30 years?

by neat blue dog in

it's pretty easy to see how current events would have any jw convinced the end is imminent, but i just don't see how there could be a major push for zealous service, pioneering, etc.

decades into the future.

even if (when) world events happen periodically that could scare the r&f, there are now countless hours of hd video of jw leaders saying how close the end is.

There is undoubtedly a lot of fear and seeming confirmation of the last days. I've heard more remarks about that than since the turn of the millennium (Y2K, 9/11, Iraq war etc.) JW Broadcasting is also whipping JWs up a lot more effectively than their old wordy books & cheaply done videotapes.

It just doesn't have that same quant look of a tattered, yellow book or a fuzzy film that can be more easily excused as the light getting brighter. It makes the lies all the more real and preserves them for posterity. Maybe that's just my wishful thinking? What are your thoughts?
