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.
particularly since the unbelievably ridiculous Overlapping Generation thing came in, how can anyone not see what nonsense that is ??
I too have wondered about this and have concluded that most (remaining) JWs just haven't even given enough attention to the explanation to understand it -- or realize that there is NO way to understand such BS. They are just blindly following their blind leaders.

so this is from the brand new watchtower study edition of june 2025 which has just been posted on jw.org .under the title: modestly accept what you do not know, a let’s read paragraphs in question 4 &5: “read matthew 24:36. we do not know when the end of this system of things will come.
even jesus, while on earth, did not know the ‘day and hour.’ he later told the apostles that jehovah, who is the great timekeeper, keeps the timing of certain events ‘in his own jurisdiction,’ or authority.
God has said you should follow and obey us.
i received a phone call from a jw inviting me to the "special talk.
" in 25 years out, never happened, don't know them, phone # nowhere near me and it was like she was reading from a script.
i hung up... any one else?.
We actually received a visit at our door from two young JWs (both of whom we know the families quite well) inviting us to the Memorial and giving my wife the tract. My wife actually felt they were canvasing our neighborhood (vs calling specifically on us) so D2D is still alive here, if that is the case.
please please contact us by private messaging us.
we didn't know what to put this under so sorry in advance but this is why we are here.
courtney was a co serving in another country when his father was dying.
We sent him the link to this thread. Thank you everyone -- Newly Enlightened
Let's hope we get an update on this! And hopefully their "revenge" continues.
.
The greatest revenge is living a happy & successful life!

It's about time they admitted it.
But did they really have any option? Hasn't everyone figured out by now that they have no frigging idea?

That 1/2 of JWs are gone does not surprise me.
The fact that 1/2 are still there is what amazes me!
i have worked for over 25 years now in a day habilitation program for persons with physical and mental diabilities.
in recent years this has often involved assisting them in doing community volunteer work, as in our state, persons receiving services are required to have a 'job' of some sort.
as a result, we have worked in catholic and salvation army food pantries, animal shelters, libraries, a nature center, a vietnam war veterans museum and delivered meals on wheels.
Ever hear of paragraphs?
Just saying it would sure make it easier getting through this.
what's with the attack (counsel) on husbands with no corresponding article for wives on the jan 2025 w that is being studied today?.
is there a point to that?.
Blow jobs are still bad.
Not true. Some are just better than others.
simple.... .
watchtower + meme !.
anything is acceptable, but make your meme your own, hand written scrawls on microsoft paint are just as funny so don't worry about quality.
