Question: Can we get a pdf or a picture of the actual letter? What I see is the text, and even though it sounds legitimate, it could be made up...

How many JW´s spend their whole lives being JW´s?
by ILoveTTATT2 inever since i became an exjw activist... i have wondered, how many people can i hope to reach?.
what are the odds that my parents and loved ones will live out the remainder of their lives as jehovah´s witnesses?.
is there a way to calculate the odds that any jw will remain a jw for the rest of their lives?.

I guess I asked an unanswerable question. It´s impossible to know how many JW´s will end up being JW´s their entire lives because no one has actually kept track or could keep track of so many people for such a long time.
The only "hard" data we have is the PEW information that says that 2/3 of born ins eventually leave...
I just don´t see that, however. A vast majority of the people who were in when I left 4 years ago... are still in.
Maybe I need more time to know the answer? Maybe I need to rephrase it?
Out of the people you knew when you were a witness, how many are out?
Personally, my count is 10 out of around 300. -

I would venture to say born ins who have parents and other relatives who are J.W.`s and that makes it so much harder to break from the mould as their is too much to lose ,family and life long friends that you have only known since birth.
I don´t know about that... I think born-ins are the ones who tend to get out, a lot! I lost my family and I still went out...
The emotional bond can be so hard to break free from regardless of the knowledge one might have gained that something is not what it seems ,it just doesn`t add up ,or doubts that appear.
It could be overwhelming for many people to face that and bite the bullet.
They would just bide their time and wait and see ,wait and see , wait and see .......until they die. -

I think the same. Trump will be the Republican candidate, I hope Bernie runs again for the democrats, and I really hope Hillary does NOT run again. -

What was the EXACT exJW website you first visited and why EXACTLY did you visit it?
by ILoveTTATT2 ini had two episodes of visiting exjw websites:one time around 2007 when i just googled "jehovah´s witnesses" and dared to look at those sites.
i was scared and i promised myself i would never come back to them.
however, that one didn´t really count.the moment that woke me up was this:i got to know that whitney heichel was a jw and murdered by another jw, because i overheard that conversation in a kingdom hall.i looked up the news and in one of the news comments, there was one where an exjw was complaining that they were hijacking her funeral and they were really trying to downplay the fact that her murderer was a jw... and then it said "visit jwfacts.com"... which i did.and the rest... is history.what exactly got you onto an apostate website when you woke up?

Did anyone wake up because of someone you saw or heard at a convention? Would you have gone to jwfacts if you had known about it in a convention, like paleemperor is trying to do?

I made a post (comment) on a board of a few people before H20 was in full force - about 1998-99. I'd put in a search for xJWs and nothing around probably before '98/'99. There was some site where I'd made a comment about the religion and replies seemed clueless re/JWs and surprised to hear. Then H20 was created one day -- the hwy. to reality. There may have been one other site before this one (JWN which is best ever/so grateful for Simon) and after H20 -- anyone know?
Wow! That is amazing history right there! So if someone woke up in 98, they would have found NOTHING online?? -

What do you think? About the methods and about the odds?
