yes, the jws continue to bleed their young ones, so far in my local kh 3 were dfd, one girl just turned 18 this month and packed her bags and said goodbye to the cult and her cultish parents, another young 18 year old man decided to have a non-jw girlfriend and decided to stop attending and is no longer a witness.
they continue to leave and wt leaders dont give a damn.
they dont do anything to help kids be successful and live a healthy life.. .
Well they DO give a damn. Thats why we see the youth-aimed videos and such being ramped up. They're trying to lock them in early as possible
If they don't give a damn, they should. Young JWs are ultimately the future of the organization. The handful of people they convert each year in the ministry aren't enough to sustain the religion long-term. They need the next generation of born-ins.
...where communication/information has progressed vastly, the jw r&f have, in well over 100 years, progressed from sandwich boards to..errr..modernised sandwich boards as their up-to-date means of communicating.. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2691254/how-jehovahs-witnesses-got-street-smart-believers-swap-infamous-doorstepping-standing-outside-train-stations-shops.html.

No one's ever accused the WT of being progressive.
what was the experience like?
i lived with my brother and then sister-in-law in an apartment building owned by a brother and his wife.. besides the fact that they would constantly enter the place while we were out, without any kind of advance notification, they would procrastinate whenever there was maintenance work that needed to be done.
sometimes it would take months before they would get to it.
Did you ever ask them?
Didn't need to. Just like we didn't need to ask the pioneer wife if she used either of the other two units for her mid-morning service break while the residents were at work. We already knew the answer.

What was the experience like? I have to say it was rather eye-opening for me. I lived with my brother and then sister-in-law in an apartment building owned by a brother and his wife.
Besides the fact that they would constantly enter the place while we were out, without any kind of advance notification, they would procrastinate whenever there was maintenance work that needed to be done. Sometimes it would take months before they would get to it. Their excuse was always that the work that needed to be done would interfere with meetings or service. Apparently this was supposed to make living in substandard conditions acceptable to us. I wonder if they used that excuse with the non-JWs that were renting out the other two units.
there is an excellent new article at jehovah's trumpet.... friends, the following article is not about masturbation, oral sex, anal sex, or homosexuality so it may not be appropriate for children.
please use godly wisdom when deciding if your child is mature enough to consider this material.
we are going to have a frank discussion about the theory of evolution.... .
Awesome. The only thing funnier is the comments from people who didn't realize it was satire.
welcome, to anyone up for a thought experiment and some fun with your inner god complex.
i was inspired with this question while at 7/6/14 watchtower study.
the question is.. if you were to be made god how would interact with your creations?
Every Friday would be "Bermuda shorts and flip-flops day" in heaven.
if someone asked you for information regarding your identity, would you tell them?
.
I've given my name out to people in PMs. I've also posted pictures of myself on this site. I'm past the point of caring whether I'm 'outed' or not. If I don't give out information, it has more to do with security.
there are a million of them and mine is by no means the most important question to ask them if i only had one shot at it.
but, i have always wondered what kind of bs excuse they would give as an answer to this question: "brother goober bum, given that there are both male and female partakers here on earth who claim to be of the 'anointed' and plan on being of the 144,000 ruling with christ in heaven for eternity........ why are the female 'anointed' treated as submissive, second class citizens and why is their opinion on doctrinal matters, matters of teaching and reproving, anything at all.... why are they not recognized while here on earth even though you claim that jesus has selected them to become angels to rule with him?
".
Does it hurt when you pull prophecy out of your ass?
a big discussion driving back from the regional convention about what exactly was meant about pets.. the warning was obvious to me.
don't get pets, they cost time and money and you would do better to spend your time and money supporting the organization and going in field service.. as to the wine and beer, because the bro during his soliloquy admitted that the first thing he would like to do is relax after a hectic day at work with a glass of wine or beer, his conscience was traumatized.
however he came up with a perfect idea, he'd go tend the garden (obviously a solution for a married bro) or hit some golfballs at the driving range (maybe he's not married).. maybe jesus should have told the wine guzzlers at cana to sober up and go till the fields.. .
I see no reason why I can't drink beer and play golf at the same time.
'the terrible persecution of jehovahs witnesses by hitler, worse than that he inflicted on the jews, took place.
'' wt 1966 15th oct page 635.
Hard to believe that the WT would rewrite history for it's own self-aggrandizing purposes.
