What will 1914 (DROPPED) mean for you (EX-JW)
by John Aquila inlet's pretend this might happen.
im not asking what it will mean for the jdubs or for the organization, but what will it mean for you---- if one day you wake up and the watchtower drops the 1914 doctrine.. (you know at some point they have to, but probably not our lifetime).
if you are disfellowshipped or disassociated and have been shunned by your parents, by your children, by you spouse or ex-husband/wife, for years or even less, will you call your relatives and ask/tell them;.

What about Bill "Pudding Pop" Cosby? He never did those things 40 years ago, that was a "fact" for most people. It was "fact" a few months ago, but THEN..... THE INFORMATION AGE balanced the scales!!!! Now everyone KNOWS.
DD I totally agree with you. The information age has finally caught up with the Watchtower’s secrets. Just two years ago when I woke up-----
I had no idea how large the child sexual abuse was. That was just two years ago. I had no idea of the U.N. deal with the WT, no idea of Malawi/Mexico; actually I had no idea of anything.
2 years and one month ago I was auxiliary pioneering.
In two years the internet has exposed “To Me” all the smut the WT has been involved in. It took about a year to assimilate the information and leave the Watchtower
Now if that happened to me, a dedicated JWs for 40 years and it changed my mind to the point of leaving regardless, I wonder how many JWs right now are going through the same thing I went through, a rude awaking.

If they drop 1914, any mention we make of '1914' we will be labeled as 'apostate.'LOL, that is hilarious! -

Have you seen the move Predestination with Ethan Hawke? It's worth the 99c at Redbox.

Doc, I did after being 40 years in. I think we underestimate what is happening as far as exposing the WT as being a cult and the effect it is having on JWs worldwide. The amount of people waking up compared to say the 80s is mind-boggling.Older ones have no where else to go. They see that the only "End" that is near, is their own. But it would not be wise for them to risk all their friends and any family they have still "in".

It is possible they drop 1914 anytime from now ,if I look back to the time I first studied their teachings in 1974-75 ,and then look forward from then, I could never imagine the religion and it's teachings now that we see.
That's what I see wozza, these guys are so crazy and presumptuous that anything is possible. When I came in I saw quite a few die because they wouldn't accept blood. Then out of the blue, blood fractions are ok. Everyone would say; "We will never accept blood, if we do, we are NOT the true religion"
But what happend? It changed overnight.

That suggests that he was actually with them in the first place, originally.
It ain't much of a stretch to go from "they had it once but lost it" to "they probably never had it", though.
Vidiot, that's a good one, I'm gonna try to use that when appropriate. -

I understand many jw will still not wake up, but would the news of dropping 1914 impel an ex-jw to approach his jw relatives and point out that the basis for believing in the last days is over. Would it give you an incentive to go tell them, "It's over, you were following false prophets, it's time to reexamine your religion"
Or would you just leave your relatives alone.
I personally would give it a shot and try to help them see that it's over. The last days starting in 1914 was a scam.

Let's pretend this might happen.
I’m not asking what it will mean for the JDUBs or for the organization, but what will it mean FOR YOU---- if one day you wake up and the Watchtower drops the 1914 doctrine.
(You know at some point they have to, but probably not our lifetime)
If you are disfellowshipped or disassociated and have been shunned by your parents, by your children, by you spouse or ex-husband/wife, for years or even less, will you call your relatives and ask/tell them;
“Are you going to talk to me now?”
“I guess Jesus didn’t start to rule in 1914!”
“Are you going to keep following the Watchtower?”
“Are you going to keep on preaching?”
“I told you so”
Would it make a big impact on your life? Would you be pissed of at your relatives for all the time lost? Would you want them back in your life after all the years of shunning?
