"Hopefully I will follow the plan and in few months I will start to miss meetings, and become inactive again"
So much for the Elders "holy spirit" and their keen ability to read repentant hearts. What a joke!

Let's hope, over time, all of this crap hits the media. When my spouse and I decided to fade, we knew full on what we could and should expect from family and "friends." Hopefully the "loving organization" will be exposed for what it really is.
If I/we receive anything like this from family or "friends", I/we will reply that that is their decision and I/we will go along with it BUT if they ever should need anything they must remember that I/we are dead to them and dead people can not assist the living. Two can play the same game. Good riddance to them! Is it hurtful...yes. It should not be this way.
The Governing Body has a lot of blood on their hands.
WHAT A SICK CULT!

Kids continue to leave in droves - so what is the organization's grand plan? This
by sir82 injws have one of the worst, if not the worst, retention rates among their kids.
i've seen numbers from 65% to 88% who leave, never to return.. you'd think this would be a priority amongst the leadership, right?
where do tomorrow's leaders come from, if the vast majority of kids leave the organization?

This newer generation is learning to be more tolerant of others.They are learning critical thinking. They are internet and computer literate. I get help with my computer from my teenager. lol
It's a different generation than ours...you want a tatoo....get one. You love someone of the same sex...it's ok. WT is still in the June and Ward Clever era. These kids WILL NOT tolerate you telling them what to do and when to do it.

Last assembly I went to they were packed in like sardines and the attendants were like little hitlers when it came to where you sat. Have not been to an assembly in over 3 years. Wishful thinking, I guess.

Times Union Jehovahs Witnesses Assembly
Did anyone attend the Albany assembly? The photos in this article shows many empty seats!
The article mentioned this was on Sunday:
"Regional Jehovah's Witnesses Convention at the Times Union Center on Sunday, July 10, 2016, in Albany, N.Y."
Would be great to get the attendance amount for someone who attended.
Edited: The comments stated 4000 in attendance, 20 baptized.
