You don't have to have a new "blood card" issued every year (January), you just keep the one you had from last year unless there are things that need to be changed on the card ( address )

What Is THE Number One Reason For JWs Leaving???
by minimus infrom what i can see, it's the "lack of love" that gets people to realize the witnesses don't have the "truth" after all!

Easily lack of love, selfishness, cruelty, lack of empathy, whatever you want to call it. This is a very tiring thing to be a part of.

I really believe for the average jw that it isn't so much about it being the ultimate truth but it is a life, a life that is excepted by everyone that they know. Their parents, friends since the age of conception, etc.. So, it is much more to do with their little tiny uncomplicated world that the average jw cares about the most. The fact that it is the truth or not I believe comes in a far second place. Without this world, for most, they believe that they will cease to exist.

So boring and unsatisfying to the human spirit.
Agreed.
And thank you for the welcome.

Hey, What is, hang in there! Your search for truth, meaning, etc. is going to be a rather convoluted journey. I now know that things I always considered "absolutes" aren't. Between two distant poles of Black and White, there exists a great deal of Grey.
I couldn't agree more. Life is 99.9% grey. I don't expect to find any absolutes in this world but then again for some reason I or anyone else are not supposed to know. If we were supposed to know we would have by now.
Until that time comes live, learn and enjoy.
By the way, thanks for the welcome.
On in two but in in five - lol - that's my version anyway.

The average JW only hopes against hope that somehow this "roll of the dice" will turn out to be correct.
I have heard this said on many occasions and it was only from the ones that were honest with themselves, which is very rare indeed. That goes to show me that even though they call their religion "the truth" many when reality hits have to conceed that there is a chance that it might not be. I mean what really is truth? No one really knows.

Your correct love cannot be commanded, it is an emotion. But, I have found with expception of a few that the average jw hardly puts forth an effort to try and love their brother or neighbour, yet it is what has to be done to be saved from god's wrath.
If someone really believed it in the deepest regions of their heart I would think a much larger effort would be made to help and love.

I ask this question because the average jw does not show true love though they are commanded to do so. The average jw often confesses that the meetings are quite boring. The average jw complains about almost everything within the org. but still stay. The average jw does not have a deep seated zeal that one should have if they really believed everything they taught was the truth. The average jw in all honesty does not look forward to the conventions.
So, do they within their heart believe it is the truth or does the average jw only do it because in reality they are held prisoner to their peers and families?
