  Few JW leader have children

  by slimboyfat in

  2. beliefs

  it’s been discussed before that few jw leaders, past and present, have had children.

  this is in contrast with other groups, such as the mormons, whose leaders have had a lot of children.

  i wonder if this has impacted jw growth.

  The Coming Global Salvation - (Not Universalism)

  by Sea Breeze in

  2. beliefs

  the overwhelming majority of the early church leaders (fathers) were premillennial and believed in a literal 1000 yr. kingdom.

  today, 2/3 of christians are amillennial.

  i do not want to imply that amilennialists, are not christian.

  Predictions for the next decade?

  by jehovaxx in

  2. beliefs

  as it’s nearly the new year my prediction over the next decade or so will see the sense of urgency dwindle.

  then some huge huge changes.

  for example by 2034 in a decades time, they will have address the 1914 issue and will come out and say we can’t be dogmatic.

  Prediction for the next decade…

  …Warners and Disney will merge.

  And we’ll finally get the Justice League / Avengers crossover nobody’s been asking for.

  “israel” has gone to war with iran.. who is fooled?.

  this is uncle sam, same as in ukraine.. daniel layed out clearly the events of “d day” june 6, 1944 as the “ships of kittim” would sail against the king of the north.

  “…we just had the courage to think for ourselves…”

  By the WTS’s internal logic, that’s “apostasy”.

  1/2 of the Jehovah’s witnesses have gone

  by hoser in

  2. friends

  there are 1/2 of the jehovah’s witnesses that there were 30 years ago in my area.

  some have left but i think that many have died and none of their kids stayed being jehovah’s witnesses.

  7 congregations have been dissolved over the years.

  Journeyman - “…However, for various reasons - ranging from burnout, to distractions from everyday life, to a lack of a personal sense of urgency - they don't act as the ‘old school’ JWs of the pre-2000s did…

  Ten bucks says that there’s also a significant number who are embarassed to (publicly) identify as JWs, considering all the shit that’s been going on.

  Barb Anderson did some digging a while back, and put it together.

  Unsurprising, really…

  …Russel was a businessman, and activities like that had less chance of a return on the investment.
