Hey kid,
It's almost done! Now it's time to find a way to celebrate making it through another con-vention. Hope you are doing o.k. and didn't raise any red flags.

hall crash
by intrigue169 ini live in the des moines iowa area , i would be interested in doing a kingdom hall crash after watching some on youtube, i would love to do that with a group of people.
i haven't meet any other ex jw around here.
i was never baptized, i always knew i could never live up to jehovah's standard so i never did even consider baptizing.

The message they got was apostates are mentally diseased. Some were blocking their faces. Do what you think you must, but you were warned by many here that it does not help.

There is a woman from Canada, I think, that answered at the meeting thinking she would be thrown out. She was not. Also, another woman thanked her for her answer after the meeting! Apologies for not having a link; I am PIMO and have a hard time keeping track of stuff because I do not save it.
Check out Telltale Atheist's video on hall crashing. It's great.

Accounts report at Circuit Assemblies to go away
by LevelThePlayingField ini was at the regional convention and asked an elder why is that at the assemblies their is an accounts report but not at the conventions?
he said, well actually they got a letter and in it said that in a little while they will do away with the accounts report stating how much the assembly costs for the weekend and just go to donation basis like at the conventions.. my first thought was, "they will donate even less now.".
anybody else hear about such a thing?.

Well, there's no accounts report on the recorded assemblies they put out for shut-ins (the ones that get "leaked").
They must remain united!

Time to remind JWs of this famous quote from CT Russell!
by stuckinarut2 inwith the ever present issue of the society seeming to run out of money, and constantly asking the flock for more donations, maybe it is time to revive this quote!.
the leaked financial dept videos that have done the rounds, clearly show the society is in desperate trouble financially.. so, where is the "almighty's hand"?
where is his ability to provide funds?

I remember that AveJoe too. Then again they do that type of thing all the time, it's jus that time it was money. Nice to know people notice. My hall would not show any emotion at that time.
I've seen a man from Africa shake his head in disgust during the accounts report at an assembly. But, he otherwise appears to be a loyal jdub. :(

Reg Pioneers went down around 50,000 ?
by Wakanda inyesterday's wt study (june 17) said: .
records show that in the last five years, the average number of regular pioneers has grown to over 1,100,000 and more than a quarter of a million worldwide have been added to the ranks of full-time preachers.. well, in 2013 they had an average of 950,022 pioneers, and in 2017 they had 1,249,946. looks like they lost some!.
also, the quarter million was a lot of turnover, which... wait for it... any thinking person would know!.

1,100,000 "full time" pioneers is about 13% of all jw's worldwide. There are 140 in my wife's congo and 15 pioneers. I don't see 13% pioneers in any of the congregations I know of. How about you?
Right! I was thinking about that too. 1.1 out of 8.whatever million. It seems more like 6.whatever million anyway!
?? So if last year according to Yearly Report there were 1,249,946 (regular?) pioneers and 'now' they claim "the average number of regular pioneers has 'grown to' over 1,100,000." This would be a 'decrease' since last year of 149,946 or about 12%! I am not understanding!
Apostate cognitive dissonance? ;) Well, I was being generous just in case wt's number was 1,199,999, and someone got picky with me. They said over 1,100,000 so they did not give the real wt number.
I wonder if we will see other 'growth' in baptisms or such. I think they are prepping their minds for the next statistics that replace the yearbook.
