  Depends on what the meaning of the words"Last Days" is

  by enigma1863 in

  do the jws still say "we are in the last of the last days" ?

  i don't even know what that means any more.

  they will say the end is coming soon but according to their god a day isn't a day.

  It is weird that “conventional” fornication, adultery, and homosexuality all seem to engender a much higher level of freakout amongst JW loyalists.

  Hm.

  Maybe less “indifferent” than a state of denial?

  Passive denial could definitely look a lot like indifference.

  I could be wrong.

  I think this keeps getting repeated amongst the rank-and-file by the ones who - deep down - wish they had gone to college…

  …and are trying to make themselves feel better.

  Like the fox and the grapes.

  They’re not “indifferent”.

  They simply cannot imagine it could be such a widespread, institutionalized, and endemic problem in “God’s Exclusive Earthly Organization”…

  …but more importantly…

  …the WT leadership knows that the more the Org’s CSA problem is exposed, litigated against, and confirmed by internal documents, which become a matter of Public Record (especially if such records name actual Governing Body members)…

  …that all-important premise becomes almost impossible to maintain.

  What Will JW's Do If They Find Themselves Still Conscious after Death?

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  we all know that despite many scriptures to the contrary, jw's believe that when they die, their consciousness will cease.

  my question is this: what will be the likely reaction of jw's if they find themselves conscious after death?.

  Cost of living crisis

  during the height of the pandemic all elders had to report to the co anyone who was struggling with bills or who couldn’t pay the rent.

  the co reported it to the branch.. i don’t know what happens next.

  do the branch help at all?

  ThomasMore - “…Over time, it became obvious that WTC did not want us helping those in need…”

  From what Barb Anderson has determined, that tendency goes all the way back to Russel.

  What Percentage of active JW's are on Anti-Depressants?

  by Sea Breeze in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i came across an xjw post on redditt from a rn.

  she states that nearly every jw she ever treated was on anti-depressants or anti-psychotic drugs:.

  https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/f35vaa/just_about_every_jw_i_come_across_is_on/ i once read somewhere that 1 in 5 jw's were on anti-depressants, but i couldn't find any documentation.

  From what I hear, self-medicating goes all the way up the ladder.

  Simon - “…No believing JW is even looking at exJW or ‘apostate’ content, so anyone who does is already doubting and looking for answers…”

  This.

  Reading XJW material on the net doesn’t turn you into an apostate.

  It just helps you realize you already are one.
