When they used to call I was never rude or nasty. I used to be one of them! I would listen for a couple minutes and excuse myself. Really I have no time for them, when I left about 14 years ago it was finale, done. Where I live very very few local witnesses. There may not be any local witness left in the KH that know me. Cong is mostly Wat Farm. They come and go faster than you can learn their names. So I don't know if there are any Farm people left that would know me. Good.

My opinion..

Right or wrong, good or bad, the organization is an empty shell compared to what it used to be.

Can Elders Voluntarily Resign?
by NotFormer inan elder with half a brain (and they must exist đ§) is going to see the writing on the wall with the way the wt is manoeuvring them into taking the fall over csa cases.
can an elder in good standing step down with no consequences, official or social?.

When I stepped down the other elders treated me like shit. Don't know if it was because I didn't take their counsel not to step down or not. Sisters in the congregation were mostly OK.

Could this be the end of JWs? What are the consequences if it is?
by Teddnzo inmultiple very serious allegations against tony and then huge efforts to remove him from all pictures and videos, have to admit it doesnât look good.. once the pennsylvania investigation becomes public knowledge and front page news it will be very very hard for 8 million pimis.. is it possible that this could be the largest problem the branch has ever faced?
larger than 1975, the overlapping generations or any other âtest of faithâ.
many will feel heartbroken and betrayed.

Won't bring down the cult. The all-in-it-for-life will just say "praise Jeh for keeping his organization so clean"

When I was a young man and I slipped up and spent a night with a young lady the next morning I expected Armeggedon to start any moment. Because of me.

Haven't been to a meeting in 13 years. Family that lives 1300 miles away doesn't know. Just visited them and here is what I observed. They talk about their cart service but not anyone they talked to, just what a beautiful spot they set up their cart and chairs along the shore. They talk about their meetings, but not about doctrine or some scripture clarification, but rather how well someone spoke, how well he/she was dressed, did you notice who was sitting with sister so and so? The convention, the drama, how professionally it was done. I have no idea what this years drama is about because they didn't mention it. No type of spiritual discussion. All social type gossip. No talk about how 'we' will be the generation that witnesses Armageddon and survive into the New World without ever dying. We used to talk that way all the time 50 years ago. My family I am talking about have up to 65 years in the Org. One has been a pioneer, special pioneer, Bethalite for his whole adult life. Just an observation thought I would share.
