It has certainly much easier to fade during the pandemic. Many JWs regard faders the same as disfellowshipped. They regard it as turning your back on the one true religion, so you dont deserve to be recognised in the street etc.

Can you get disfellowship for kissing a person of the same sex?
by pistolpete ini found this on exjwreddit.
a pimo elder is in the middle of an event where a former co allegedly kissed a brother from another hall.. the co denied it so the other elders are frustrated because they can't have a judicial meeting.
if true, can he be disfellowshipped?

If its a one off, he may be spoken to, but thats all. Depends how they kissed as well. In some countries its how another person is greeted. A kiss on the cheek is quite acceptable, whereas a full mouth to mouth kiss would be regarded as very different.

The org dont seem to worry any more about any increase in the number of partakers. They just say its people who are confused or mentally unstable, and its Jehoobah who knows the true figure. lol

2021 Service Report
by alanv ini have just realized that the 2021 service report figures have in fact been published.
but they are written in such a way its harder to compare.
so on the jw website, there is a tab called 'about us'.

btic. The org have already said that many think they are of the heavenly class, but are just a bit mixed up. Either that, or they are mentally unstable lol. And its only a once a year embarrassment so they think they can live with that.

Thanks Jeffro, I had never given it much thought before. I certainly hope you are right and they do continue to publish it in the way they always have.

I have just realized that the 2021 Service Report figures have in fact been published. But they are written in such a way its harder to compare. So on the JW website, there is a tab called 'About us'. If that is clicked we see the main worldwide figures. But if we click on the individual countries shown on the same page, they show the new 2021 figures. This is a very clever move by Watchtower as it hides quite well some of the more damaging figures.
They may of course publish the figures in the way they always have, or they may keep publishing them in this way. Time will tell.

New year's predictions for watchtower.
by asp59 inwell don't know if this page has tread for new years predictions or with date it starts.
so might as well start now.
my new year's prediction for watchtower would be a big big sell out of kingdom hall's.

I think they will continue to sell some Kingdom Halls, but not too many as they are such a money spinner. They will continue to use JWs free labour to build new ones, and then the cycle starts again with big profits for Watchtower

Anyone watch Evans video on the Bethalite who left?
by mickbobcat ini don't know if he was a regular betalite but either way he left and in the interview he says some of the gb are very intelligent.
the whole thing came across to me as this guy may have just left and is still a little wonky about talking against the gb.
i don't buy from all i have seen that any of the gb are very intelligent.. [video removed].

GB 2021 Update #10 - "get vaccinated"
by neat blue dog inam the turd comes the closest to just coming right out and telling jws they have to do it.
he says, 'there's no need to worry, just keep doing what works: wear masks, wash your hands and get vaccinated when possible'.
the busybodies are going to be even more insufferable now than they have been.

Considering how many lives it has saved, its good if the organisation highly recommend it. My idiot JW elder son, has been in complete isolation since march 2020 with his wife and my grandson. The boy is 14 months old and has never been in the company of anyone else, including me.

They no longer own their Kingdom Halls, Watchtower does. And its pretty unlikely that a multi billion dollar org is running out of funds
