  What`s the reason some of you think JW`s are in decline ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  from what i can see no such thing is happening.i became a jw in 1960 and remained for about 30 years and the numbers of active jw`s today in the world are far greater than they were back then.. and here in australia the numbers are much higher than they were back then .. so i don`t see that their in decline or have any worries about losing support .. don`t the numbers speak for themselves ?.

  is it just wishful thinking on your part ?.

  The Borg was f$@#ed 20 years ago or so as the internet flourished. Its been downhill for them ever since and they can never recover.

  Thats the beauty of it all. The Borg never saw or anticipated any of it,,,they never seen the internet age coming.

  Their printing age drying up and their lies being uncovered.

  Poetic justice.

  As time goes on they will get away with so much

  by ExBethelitenowPIMA in

  2. beliefs

  when i was young we used to hear things about how they used to smoke and used to celebrate christmas etc.

  we were just taught that was olden times now jehovah has clarified things.. but i was thinking about the poor older ones who had been in truth for decades who remembered those times, and they must have had doubts.. well look at the changes today in 2023.. we are supposed to just forget about 1975 and all these other things so what about the things happening in our time that we are supposed to feget about .

  we should never forget that following direction to be fully vaccinated was harmful direction.

  Don't worry.

  The internet is the great "equalizer".

  The Borg will get away with less and less

  ''Watchtower can not fix the past! The cover ups will not work. Only the real stupid and gullible will fall for their nonsense.''

  The last 20years or so has been a nightmare for the Borg. All its history lies and b.s. is catching-up with them. They can't cover their past and lies anymore.

  only delusional and nonsensical people will buy the lunacy now,

  Confirmed: CO Discourages Zoom

  by XBEHERE in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i can confirm that the co during one of his service talks stated that zoom is a provision for elderly, infirmed, as well as people who might need it on occasion due to health reasons, otherwise you are expected to be in person at meetings and in the ministry.

  this had to come down from the top.

  maybe they do not want to put it in a gb update or broadcast since that would be too public i suppose.

  Yes. More bodies in KH seats, more contribution boxes in plain sight by attendees.

  Conspicuously placed near entrances and washrooms so you can't miss them. The Borg has to get back on track since the pandemic of 3 years has ran the contribution boxes dry.

  https://www.washingtonpost.com/books/2023/05/19/felt-end-review-daniel-cox/.

  what it’s like to leave the jehovah’s witnesses.

  in ‘i felt the end before it came: memoirs of a queer ex-jehovah’s witness,’ daniel allen cox reflects on losing his faith after spending his early years waiting for armageddon.

  Sorry, I should have elaborated. Excuse me.

  I should have said do ''everything opposite the Borg preaches about associating with JW's only''

  Branch - out and make friends with non JWs. But using your head about it.

  We know how much the Borg parrots not even going for a burger or fries with non JW's after work or for coffee after.

  Just do what the Borg says NOT to do about not making non JW friends. Make friiends outside of the Borg. But using common sense as a denominator.

  Etc.

  Hope this helps,

  A luncheon with ultra PIMI, elderly relatives

  by joe134cd in

  2. experiences

  i had a luncheon yesterday with and aunt and cousin.

  the only reason i went, and endured it, was because my father who can’t drive wanted to see them.

  as i sat there eating the lunch at the restaurant, i couldn’t help think how totally oblivious they are to what’s going on, in an ever expanding organisation of the happiest people on earth.

  waking-up people who are in their 70's or 80's now woulld be too traumatic.

  after dedicating in some case 50 or 60 years to the Borgs pipedream. Sometimes its best to leave elderly with their delusional fantasies at that. It's too traumatic now to whisk that lollipop from them at this stage in their lives. Than to realize they have been fools for at least HALF A CENTURY.

  Does the Governing Body already know that Jehovah (the name) came from Babylon the Great?

  by Chevelle in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i'll start by stating the obvious... according to the watchtower, the catholic church is a huge part of babylon the great which is led by satan and his demons.

  raymundus martini, a catholic monk (who "represents" babylon the great to some extent), woke up one day in the 13th century and decided to alter yhwh so it can be easily pronounced.

  hence the spanish-ish version of yhwh was created... jehova... (sounds something like this in spanish: heh-o-va).

  One thing you will never ever,ever ,ever hear at those rambling long-winded KH meetings is how to prepare for retirement and planning for ''golden years".

  I mean come on now!!

  What did you think from a Borg who always spouts the "end is nigh"".

  NO. They have to drum-up fear,,urgency and dependency upon them. Telling you how to prepare yourself for retirement totally negates the Borg last days fear narrative.

  The Borg includes the text to Aid to Bible Understanding.

  I thought the Borg didn't make it possible to reference certain older material.
