  I recently stated to an elder that each day "Jehovah" withholds armeggedon, 350,000 people are born and 13 people become JWs.

  How does it make sense that by his delay each day millions of babies are destined to die in only one month.

  they're tired... sooooo soooo tired.

  they know it's all wrong but they keep telling themselves how wonderful it is.

  almost as if they are trying to convince themselves.

  I am full blown apostate vocal about WT abuse policies yet the die hards still alive that watched me grow up and their children still communicate with me about all things organization. I agree with the OP. They are fatigued. Disillusioned. Apathetic. Seeking answers but locked in to the cult catch net. When they can't envision another life, it is easiest for them to play their roles grow older in routine and await death.

  Donations to the "WWW" are essentially donations to the pedophile defense fund.

  Welcome Demokan. Excellent advice has been given to you already and I hope your journey is a smooth one. If you are using an iPod, download the Mercury App. It's a full browser that works well with this forum. ;)

  i have not been to meeting, or been visited by an elder from my congregation in years.

  i thought they where suppose to account for everyone in congregation to coe, when he visits.

  could they be possibly be hiding my card, or even destroyed it, so coe wont get mad at them.. any former elder know how this is handled?.

  The WBTS official stance is that inactive ones on file should be contacted and encouraged to become active with special instructions on uncovering wrongdoing and mapping out forgiveness if warranted. It is contained in a BOE letter from 2009 which can be found by searching this forum.

  Reality is, many BOE conveniently "lose" those record cards from their file so as not to have to deal with the probing questions and ridicule of the traveling overseer when he reviews the file.

  Its not "official", but most of the inactive publisher cards end up in the "dead" file otherwise known as the trash can.
