  How can I find out what my standing in the Org is?

  by lv4fer in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there was never an announcement made.

  i wrote them a letter not a da letter, but essentially i told them that me and my family simply wanted to "cease to be involved with the faith" at the time on their web site it said that you would not be shunned if you simply ceased to be involved with the faith.

  i also said if they made an announcement that i would sue them for slander.

  Does "Loyalty" work both ways in the Org?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  as jw's we are asked to be "loyal" to the organization.

  all this means is, say "yes" to everything they ask, and believe everything they teach without questioning.. how about the jw organization, are they loyal to their members?

  if a brother of sister falls sick, loses a job, becomes invalid, will the jw organization show loyalty to that person and help out?

  What I remember from 1975

  by Big Dog in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  since i am sort of late to the party this has probably been beaten to death and if it has just kick this thread to the curb.

  i was 11 years old in 1975 and i remember being scared silly the whole year.

  i mean there was so much hype about it and the tension in the air was so thick it was unreal.

  Will the average age of Witnesses go up with time?

  by JH in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  .

  my parents go to a catholic church, and they say that the average age is in the 60's.. at the kh, the average age is about 30, if you calculate the age of the children too.. theoretically, the average age of witnesses should go up with time .

  if less and less people become witnesses, the average age should go up, just like traditional religions....no?.

  i posed this question to my tbjw (true believer jehovah's witness) wife:.

  "what if it was proved to you without a doubt (i conceded that this was not possible) that the gb had no special mandate or guidance from hs?

  what if they were just like anyone else who reads the bible alot?
