As a matter of fact....the last time my wife and son visited (many years ago) on a factory tour they saw WTF stenciled on a number of carts used to move magazines. We all chuckled.

After 10 years do they give up on you (hoping so)
by Spiral ini think i read somewhere that if you have been inactive for ten years plus, the elders will not try to meet with you and corner you to get you back "in".
is that true?.
i just realized that mr. spiral and i haven't gone to meetings or reported time for over ten years.

They've been coming to my door once or twice a year, always unannounced, always rebuffed.
I've not been to a meeting in what will be ten years this fall. They came by again not long ago prompting me to ask the PO to put me on the do not call list. So far no visits. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Don't you think that some people are just better off within the org?
by paradiseseeker inthis is my first post, i will introduce myself later.
first of all, i must say that english is not my mother tongue (i'm spanish), so excuse me if i make any mistake.. do you think that some people simply can't cope with being outside the jws?
some of them are too worldlyphobic to be around non-jws, too dependent on a fixed set of rules in order to carry on with their lives, too dependent on the hope of paradise and resurrection, too unable to leave their personal comfort zone within the organization.

Smoking is an immense source of comfort for those addicted to nicotine. Smokers describe it as a social blanket that keeps them warm when stressed by the trials of the day.
Just because a practice makes someone "feel better" doesn't mean they are better off continuing the same.

Billions die because fruit was eaten. Please think about this.
by pleaseresearch incounties once at war with one another can forgive and move on.
even horrible murderers who killed the family members of someone can be forgiven for the act that they did.. but god, no no no.
no such thing can happen.

What Made You Decide To Finally Leave The Organization?
by minimus inwas there one certain event or was it more a cumulative thing?.

I remember going over the "questions" in the Lamp Book.at the age of 12. After all, armageddon was nigh.
Later on, I felt bad because I just got dunked, never having gone to JG in prayer and dedicating my life to do his will. Who knows, maybe this is my loophole? At 16 I recall telling my dad, the PO at the time, that I didn't agree with all the wacky teachings, (the UN, the numerology, the shifting dates, the blood doctrine) but thought it was the "best way of living." Oddly enough that didn't even phase him. I think he agreed. Toward the end of his life, although we never spoke of it, I could see his doubts.
In adulthood, I really grappled with the murder of billions so JG could prove himself right. Serving as an elder, I had a front row seat to the backstabbing, self serving, even criminal behavior of fellow elders. I began to see how my kids were being forced to do something they didn't want and that was pretty much the last straw.
In answer to your question, it was definitely cumulative and took decades. Thanks to the internet, now people can find out immediately that their doubts and concerns are valid. Perhaps this will embolden some to leave more quickly.
