Jehovah’s Witnesses’ UN Prophecy Fails Again: Trump’s Win Proves Them Wrong
by raymond frantz inhttps://youtu.be/-kdbs3lcsx8?si=icfla8tzg0p_wdcz.
the governing body of jehovah’s witnesses (gb) has done it again—another bold prophecy, another epic fail.
during their 2024 annual meeting, they confidently announced that the nations of the world would soon hand over their power to the united nations.

F’real.
The guy spent his twilight years dressed in Herb Tarleck’s hand-me-downs, shuffling around Bethel, muttering to his shoes.

re. TonusOH’s post…
Yup.
Norwegian JWs are still able to believe, practice, and live however the fuck they want (within the constraints of secular law)…
…they simply may no longer do it on the taxpayers’ dime, anymore.
Making this distinction clear is paramount, IMO.

JW loyalists’ counter-argument is that God miraculously compels them to do it…
…i.e. no mundane, real-world, ducks-in-a-row preparatory measures needed.

Multiple elder visits… wrist-slaps for minors… 3-month probationary removal… everybody says hi anyways…
…at this point, WTF is the point?

FFGhost - “…How bad off are they, financially?”
This is almost the exact same question I asked when their charity-status was literally on the chopping block in Australia, and they blinked at the last minute and signed up for the ARC’s redress scheme to keep it…
…and when I first clued in that their financial situation might not be as robust as we’d thought.

It’s one thing to pick fights that aren’t winnable…
…it’s a whole ‘nother thing to pick fights that make you look stupid.

DesirousOfChange - “…While it used to mean removal of any/all privileges, they had to adjust that policy or there would be no elders/MS still serving and definitely no young guys available for Bethel service…”
While this aspect makes me chuckle, there’s a darker parallel.
After the Dateline expose 20-odd years ago, they made a semi-public statement that that no known sex offenders could hold any positions of responsibility in JW congregations.
What some might not know is that a few years later, they quietly (but very specifically) reversed that policy.
I couldn’t get my head around it… YTF would they set themselves up for the kind of blowback that would inevitably come from that?
Eventually, I figured it out…
…coupled with fewer and fewer qualified males “reaching out”, there had to be so many offenders that the Org was running out of guys to keep things functioning.
And that was a very disturbing conclusion.
