They produced an abundance of literature that is useful to show that they are False Prophets.

What useful piece of literature have the JW produced?
by HowTheBibleWasCreated inseeing on another post here about former jws throwing away literature.
i am curious as to the various opinions on there value.. for me i have been inactive for 3 years almost 4. i still have alot of books and of course all their bibles ever produced (except a few from the 1800s.).
in my opinion i think there are four books the jws produced that are useful:.

While cleaning out the garage we just discovered two huge boxes of Bound Volumes that we thought had been burned long ago. I can't keep them all but which of any have important articles worth saving, such as those that are no longer available or have been changed online? May 22, 1969 Awake! is an example IMO.

Other than living in a circuit apartment or travel trailer, most CO's seemed to live better than we did. (Now they have a full house maintained by the circuit.)

King David's Three Choices
by Jehalapeno ineditor's note: found this on reddit...thought the meat of the post would be a good post for discussion here as well.. consider the three choices god forced upon david for taking a census.
these three choices were forced on king david, not for murdering people, not for raping women, not for lying, stealing, or any crime we can think of in our modern world that is repugnant, but simply for taking a census or in other words, counting people.. for counting people, jehovah forced a decision on david that involved the lives of thousands upon thousands of innocent people.. the choices all dealt with the “way” jehovah would kill thousands of unsuspecting loyal worshipers.. 1 chronicles 21.
“these are the choices the lord has given you.

Just recently heard that friends of our had it go through their entire family. Grandparents in their 50s/60s. Son & DIL in their 30s and their 2yo son.
Surprisingly the 30-something son, who is healthy and in good shape, is who has had the worst complications. Pneumonia and severe respiratory problems lingering on. I thought the older, overweight, diabetic grandma would have been the one at greatest risk.

I don’t think they care what opponents say. They do care if it results in lower donations and lower income. I think that’s what prompted the outburst.~ SlimFatBoy
EXACTLY!
WTS usually refuses to make a comment. They have long held that to do so just gives legitimacy to the "false stories".
The child sexual abuse lawsuits become so prevalent and publicly known that they were forced to finally respond with a "form letter" stating they "abhor" child sexual abuse.
This public attempt at damage control is indicative of their concern and the affect it must be having in donations ("hitting them where it hurts").
I think there are likely MANY active JW's that have closed their wallets since they all feel there are no local expenses that need to be covered at this time since the "lights at the Hall are off". Plus of lower wage earners are who are suffering the most financially with the Covid crisis.

I heard an old kook suggest it was "designed" to kill off those that are a drain on society -- the old, infirm, and sick.
Those will serious illnesses that are expensive to treat (many of them indefinitely needing expensive meds).
Those elderly who would have passed at 70 years of age in the past (as Soc Sec was designed) who are now draining the SS system by living into their 80's and 90's.
These people are "not productive" in society but rather cost society a lot financially in healthcare and entitlements.
Or is it that "kooky"?
