Every year nearly 40,000 are disfellowshipped . How many disassociate ?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inevery year nearly 40,000 members are disfellowshipped mostly due to ''conduct unbecoming a christain.
'' in a 10 year period,that would be close to 400,0000 members.. does anyone know if the wts know the numbers who disassociate themselves?
do they know the number of ''faders''?

New Update On Hubby - He said he doesn't care what the society says about..
by cognac inpeople being destroyed at the big a. i told him how tramatic it was for me that i was told basically just everyone would die around me would die... that the days would be just as in noah's day and in the "my book of bible stories" there was even a baby would die and that my mom said that even babies would die at a because jehovah new that they would grow up to be just like there parents... i told him that the society said this also and this is probably where my mom got it from.... he said, "i don't care what the society says, jehovah is loving and our loving god will judge us the way that he wants and not the societys way.
then he just held me and said to pretend i was that little 6 year old and he said, "now, your mom is telling you that jehovah loves everyone and will save everyone he can, just not really evil people... he loves you and everybody very, very much...".
i fell asleep last night for the very first time knowing that somebody i love and that's close to me was on my side with this issue and against the society on this... it just took yet another huge weight off me... .

You've helped him realize that the Society does not equal Jehovah. That's huge.
Really??? Thanks Gopher...
I guess I'm not putting a ton of weight on it cause he's still reaching out to become an MS...

It's so funny cause he's reaching out to be an MS...
He has no idea that he has apostate thinking... (Shhhh, that will be our secret for now... lol)
I think he has his own definition of what apostates are and that is these evil haters of Jesus or something... Has no idea that merely disagreeing with the society makes you an apostate...

Nobody as of yet...
I'm working on my husband, the old PO from another hall and that's about it for now... I bring things up in hints when I can in a tactful way with people in general or in my comments, but nothing yet...

by jefferywhat ini have noticed, and posted a little bit about all the buzz surrounding this year.
there is a little bit of a whisper campaign going around that armageddon is coming this year.
from other posts i notice im not the only one who is seeing this, there is alot of "reminders" that we need to be obedient and trusting of the fds ( which i am of course), along with reminders to stock up and prepare for disasters etc they are really pointing to something.

Yes, I mentioned this on a thread a few weeks back. I heard that it was a topic for discussion at Gilead last year. In the version I heard, the year is 2009 - 33.5 years from the autumn of 1975 which makes it spring 2009. I can't believe people are speculating like that - did they learn nothing from '75?!
This would be great!!! And when it doesn't happen, maybe my whole family will leave the truth!!!!!!!
