  Rumour 144,000 literal number teaching to be abandoned at Annual Meeting

  say it ain’t so!

  .

  in one sense it’s a no brainer because the figures just don’t add up any more.. in another (negative) sense it’s a no brainer because it’s been fundamental to jws since year dot and might undermine the whole thing?

  LHG

  You did exactly what what the Borg did NOT want you to do.

  You came to your senses & developed critical thinking skills..

  Good on you!!!!

  Half hearted JWs compared to past generations

  by JohnR1975 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  is it just me or has there been a massive change in jws of late?.

  when i grew up in the cult they had a real sense of urgency and would do an hour minimum, these days it’s not even ten mins before coffee break.. same goes for everything else, it’s half hearted .

  Thats cuz the current crop of JWS are groomed to stand aimlessly or sit at the "apathy carts".

  I just cant see the Borg allowing holidays and birthdays.

  Its an isolationist technique. Isolating.

  And,,, it takes focus away from the Borg to the individuals. Think of all the focus the Borg will lose if individual JWs could celebrate birthdays. This is what John on his ExJw-analyzer video pointed out one time.

  And isolation. This has worked for years and years for the Borg,,,,why would they change it now.

  LHG;

  This religion is almost kaput.

  It is now evident by the a$$emblies or CONventions. You'd see arenas prior covid with rivers of empty seats.

  Now smaller venues,, much smaller venues.

  They were saying on SixSreens recently,,,, I think it was Gilbert Gonzalez that you can tell by how a circuit is performing. Is by how well attended assemblies or conventions are.

  Dagney asked why are some verses taken literally & not others??

  Thats what I'd like to know & many others

  Its called "" cherry picking "".

  Making things to suit their own narrative.

  That point should be evident & abundantly clear,,,,the GB are losing their grip on doctrine.

  Maybe they never had any grip.

  For soooooo little in return.

  Just a grandiose illusion just a perpetually a little out of reach.

  And a pat on the back.
