Not true...it was a financial crisis that did in the dinosaurs. It's science.

FADERS: How determined are you?
by VampireDCLXV inafter being here on jwn for a while, one does see a spectrum of sorts.
there are people here in various stages of their exit from their lives as jws.
some are full fledged kh and fs attendees whom we call "the conscious class".

Never, ever going back to the JW slavery. No regrets.
Do I miss some old friends and family? Absolutely. But go back inside the prison walls to join them? Ah, nope.

Why do I no longer get attacked and persecuted by the demons, since I left JW,s ?
by pedal power inmost jw.s really believe that they ( as we once did ) are promoting gods will, but what if they really are ?
is it possible that god is supporting them even though they (governing body ) lie, because most jw,s are ignorant of the lies told on their behalf, ?.
when i was a jw i got attacked by the demons bigtime, but not now, and i can only assume that they (demons ) are happy that i am no longer a jw and are now leaving me alone, cant think of any other reason, has god ever supported a group who were similarly found wanting ?.

When I was 8 or 9 and going to bed on a school night, still had my bedside light on, a piece of lego flew out of my closet. I didn't see it fly out, but heard it hit the floor and skid across. Being deathly afraid of demons from all the JW horror stories, I panicked. And of course, immediately said "Jehovah!" Silence for a few seconds.
Then another piece of lego flies out. At that...I did a trifecta of 'Jehovahs' as I bolted out of the room. I was freaked and wouldn't go back to bed. Until....my brother admitted that he was hiding in the closet to pull the joke.
The point? If I were a regular kid, not a JW and predisposed to believe in and fear demons, it would have been obvious what was up. Never would have freaked out. When we are predisposed to certain things, especially deeply ingrained fears, our minds can easily trick us.
My brother is still a JW....so the joke's on him now.

I was persecuted by demons while a JW, but it was all in my head. The idea of demons was indoctrinated in me from birth.
I've since exorcised those "demons".

Only about 5% of JW (book) Bible studies ever get baptized
by Gayle inand i would say those are mostly their own children.. 2007 b.s.
546,631 baptized 37,243 6.8%.
and looks like percentage is decreasing, by their own record.

This is clear indication of how in-effective the door-to-door work is.
What percentage of those spoken to in FS accept a bible study? That would be much lower than 5%. Therefore, the percentage of those reached in FS that get baptized would be even lower again.
I'm guessing we're down in the less than 1% range.....0.2%? Does 2 in 1000 people spoken to in FS get baptized seem high or low? High to me.
