this is the standard accusation placed on those that were stumbled by the countless failed date settings of the society.

it happened right after 1914, after 1925, after 1975 and is gradually happening since 1995 after the 1914 generation failed.

since 1995, every year now on average, there are close to 200,000 that are leaving the society.

i studied with the jws for a number of years and i found that on your doorstep they were the friendliest people in the world, but the firsrt time i stepped into the kh, with the exception of a few they didn't want to know!!!!!!!!!

i sat on a chair alone for the whole of most meetings, sometimes i even had a whole row to myself.. i then began to realise that i was only a statistic on a monthly report card.

in other words if someone was pioneering or it was raining they only had to come and see me to make their hours up.. question the blood issue and they will walk past your house with their heads down and push your magazines through the letter box when they know you are out to avoid seeing you.. i love my family, but according to the jws my lovely husband, my children and my grandaughter who i love more than life itself have no chance in the new system.

Society's control over people's lives

by Mollie in

i've been reading all the posts here and other websites, and i have been trying to figure out why the society/elders want control of people's lives.

they don't ask for contributions at the kingdom hall, and as a general rule, jw's aren't wealthy people, so what do you all think is the motivating factor behind the control issue?
