Movies about JWs
by HowTheBibleWasCreated ini have seen many movies or shows that make a passing reference to jehovah's witnesses but very few dwell on jws.
some like a deadly devotion episode i saw once tells a true story but the portal of jws is all wrong.
by movies i am not talking of documentaries.

by HowTheBibleWasCreated inseeing on another post here about former jws throwing away literature.
i am curious as to the various opinions on there value.. for me i have been inactive for 3 years almost 4. i still have alot of books and of course all their bibles ever produced (except a few from the 1800s.).
in my opinion i think there are four books the jws produced that are useful:.

Just to use one of many of their own illustrations, If any truth has only 1% of false information, then the whole of the truth is 100% false. Like putting a drop of poison in a bucket of water, it pollutes all of it. You can get new light out of some magazines, by just throwing them in the fireplace.

What's my prediction? I think it is just getting started and will mutate to something like the black plague of 1344. There won't be enough vaccines to reach all, so it will kill millions more. Just like the plague it will never go away and the only survivors will be a few astronauts off the planet . Even today there are 1000 to 3000 cases of the black plague each year and no vaccine for it. since maybe 3000 years ago the black plague has been with us, and only in 1344 did it rear its ugly head, and every few decades does it reemerge. But hey, Im just another pee -on with an imagination that almost joined a cult, so my opinion is just that, another a---hole,s opinion.

When will the JW Org count for nothing on the World Scene ?
by Phizzy ini was wondering if any of you experts on statistics and trends etc could answer the question above ?.
if you know how to do it, if you can extrapolate a true figure for the falling membership in areas that are internet connected, then we can say " by the year **** they will be so small in the internet regions that they will be on the brink".. i have put this topic in " scandals and cover ups" because it seems to me they are trying to hide how many are leaving, and how few are joining in the areas mentioned.
the non internet places will not contribute much in the way of $$$, so however the figures change for them, up, or down, makes little difference.

I know of one senior JW in his 80,s, who cant or won't use zoom and hasn't been to a meeting since February. He still considers himself as one of the great crowd, but cant find anyone to talk to. Im sure he is not the only one, who has given up in a way to stay connected. As they continue to use zoom, more and more are starting to fade and hopefully waking up.

Many Jw’s Love to Speculate About the New System
by Davros ina comment on another thread cracked me up where the poster related what some elder said on the platform that: .
in the new system, we likely will not have genitals.” lol.

If Biden wins
by mickbobcat inif biden wins i hope trump starts the trump news network and hires out from fox the good casters.
the people who made fox what it is are starting to get sick of how its turning to the left or dark side.
this would give trump a voice and keep alive real journalism.

Since you have just recently finished college, why not try to use their job placement to find a good paying job in your field of study. Just a thought and go from there. Take baby steps, by investigating how much an apartment costs, learn to cook simple meals
