  Collapse of JW Org - Possibly on the Horizon?

  by JWTom in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  this topics get a great deal of discussion here.

  what i find interesting is even some of my pimi family is embracing the reality that all is not well with jw.org and that many current jws are just going through the motions due to not having a good way out of the org.

  wondering what could realistically lead to the collapse of jw.org in the not distant future?

  I doubt if anyone under 40 knows anything about the jw cult. Most of that age and under have no interest in any religion.

  We in the UK are dealing with COVID all wrong

  yeah, so boris johnson has plunged the whole of the uk back into a second lockdown.

  kids are still going to school (thank goodness!

  ) but this second lockdown is ruining the economy and killing small businesses.. the first lockdown was forgivable because, at the time, nobody knew what we were dealing with.. but now, we know more and more about covid-19.. it is lethal to elderly people (the average age of deaths with covid in the uk is 82 years - the average age of deaths without covid in the uk is 81 years).. it is also lethal to obese people and people with diabetes.. i'd imagine hiv+ people are another vulnerable group.. but to everyone else, catching covid is fairly similar to catching the flu.

  Who knows..maybe the guvbod will have a rethink..and go for a re-make of the whole shebang.

  Quietly lose the no blood doctrine..up to the individual conscience..with no repercussion.

  Re think shunning..along the lines of shunning those who still attend while openly practicing sinful practices, not causing family splits when a family members decides the religion is no longer of interest to them...for now.

  Do a lot more highly visible good works of benefit to the whole community...totally rethink the public perception.

  Maybe there will be real growth..with new members who like what the watchtower does and want to be part of it. Not through fear but rather through real love.

  Are Jehovah's Witnesses running a race with no end in sight?

  by RULES & REGULATIONS in

  2. beliefs

  horse racing lengths vary from just a couple of furlongs to several hundred miles, if you count the mongolian derby.

  in britain, horse racing rules state that races should be over a minimum of five furlongs, while the longest race is over 4m2½f.. .

  nascar races generally last anywhere from 1.5 to 4 hours, depending on the length of the race, number of laps and track conditions.

  Understanding a family member that’s A witness

  by understandingjehovah in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i need some advise or understanding.. my brother became jehovah witness because of his wife.

  our dad is dying and over the last two months he’s done some very weird stuff.. my family knows he’s not a real witness because he sells corn liquor and pills, drinks daily, let us have our moms birthday at their house.

  he’s also committed adultery, it’s rumored that he molested our cousin when he was younger, done fraud to my dying dad, lied about being our dads poa for greed only to find out he’s not, lied to the family about his estranged daughters, called his oldest daughter a b*tch because she doesn’t want anything to do with him, lied on our dads life to her to get her to talk to him, he has the name nympho tattooed on his neck, has slandered his immediate family and abandoned two of his daughters for over 20 years to start a family with his new wife.

  a comment on another thread cracked me up where the poster related what some elder said on the platform that: .

  in the new system, we likely will not have genitals.” lol.

  i’ve heard so much speculation from many jw’s on what will and won’t be allowed in the new system.

  All these new world dreamers just cant cope with the real world we all live in. Maybe thats why we see so many with jw illnesses..especially the females. Ive come across that many ex jw women with illnesses i had never heard of before.

  Am I going way out on a limb? Why the USA is doing poorly with COVID

  by frozen2018 in

  i saw this time article: https://time.com/2938158/youth-fail-to-qualify-military-service/.

  if 71% of youth are in that bad of shape, would it follow that the entire population is in bad physical shape to begin with?

  what happens if a virus such as covid-19 infects an unhealthy population?

  The UK population to covid deaths ratio is more or less the same as the US as mentioned by pistolpete.
