  “Ten-Year Plan” does roll off the tongue a lot easier than “Potential Reforms We May See Implemented in the Next Decade or So”.

  “It’s all true! Every word!”

  “Even the bullshit?”

  “Especially the bullshit!”

  Prediction: no more changes for a long while

  by slimboyfat in

  i’ve noticed a pattern where things don’t go the way i expect them to go and/or whenever i realise there is a trend and, i mentally adjust for the idea that the trend will continue, the trend stops in its tracks.

  so on that basis, and given many people, including myself, and active jws, have been asking ‘what changes will the governing body make next?’ perhaps the (disappointing) answer is: ‘nothing much for a while to come’.

  maybe they’ve made the changes they want for now, and will wait a while and see how it’s received.

  It would go a long way towards explaining why so many young people leave, though…

  …more recent generations (actual ones, not overlapping ones) grew up in the modern world.

  They’re not scared of it.

  Hmph.

  Swapping out “living in fear of a modern world full of uncertainty” for “living in fear of breaking the rules and being cast out into a modern world full of uncertainty”…

  …some trade-off. 🤨

  Sooner or later, people get tired of living in fear…

  …even when they weren’t originally aware that they were living in fear.

  And you know you’ve crossed a threshold when you no longer fear your leadership.

  How many different "rules" do Jehovah's Witnesses have to obey? Can you count them?

  by Balaamsass2 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  all the big changes for jws since this last fall brought me back to this site, and got me and the wife talking.

  just how many things were we not allowed to do growing up as jehovah's witnesses?

  we were so used to all the rules, customs, and traditions, that we became used to them.. one site i found claims there are 141 unique rules!!

  no-zombie - “…even now, most believers are already acting as PIMOs…”

  Or maybe they simply are PIMOs.

  Covid and Zoom suggested that there are a lot more than we or the WT leadership ever suspected.

  How the Society can change anything they want

  it's been a long time since i last posted here.

  however in light of recent changes i have thought a bit about things and have come to the conclusion that the society might.

  .. use the "evil slave" argument.

  “My guess is, if they really are expecting the CSA scandals to sink the Org sooner rather than later, this is just to try and put off scuttling the ship for as long as possible.“

  The deeper issue (and one no doubt deliberately unspoken amongst the higher-ups)…

  …is that if the Org can be sunk, it can’t very well be “God’s Exclusive Earthly Organization”, now, can it?

  enoughisenough - “They are obstructing justice and being penalized for it, paying out a lot in sanctions for destroying evidence, but it seems less expensive than providing the evidence that comfirms they protect pedophiles.”

  And if they’d rather break the law repeatedly than fess up and face the music, it’s gotta be bad.
