3/4 of my hall will be dead and the younger ones didn't have any children. It will keep becoming more and more liberal to try and recruit people but will still keep the disfellowshipping the worshipping of the governing body.

Ten reasons Jehovah’s Witnesses have the true religion (plus a bonus one)
by slimboyfat inthinking back when i was a true believer these are probably the top ten reasons why i believed jws are the true religion.
1. they show love among themselves by not going to war.
not killing your fellow believers in any circumstances, including war, would seem to be a very basic requirement for true christianity.

In the 1960s, the Israeli government came to the conclusion that the Arab Muslim population of Israel had a much higher birth rate than the Jewish population of Israel. To combat this problem that is Israeli government started to pay orthodox Jews to study the Torah and have as many children as possible. The hope was these huge orthodox Jewish families that a number of children would leave the faith and become secular Jews.
So fast-forward 50 odd years these orthodox Jews know make up about 20% of the population of Israel. They don’t work or pay taxes or serve in the Armed Forces.. they have also become a formidable voting block in Israeli elections, supporting these horrible right wing candidates and parties. They also choose to be deliberately provocative to the Palestinian population and choose to settle in the occupied territories and having the Israeli army, protect them.. it is a horrible problem for the nation of Israel.
I often see parallels in this problem when Jehovah’s Witnesses make these very boisterous claims not seeing if they weren’t such a small percentage of the population society would be in trouble.

Are you glad you got the Covid Vaccine? Did it help?
by liam ini didn’t get the covid vaccine, but i admit, i was scared as shit i made the wrong decision because there was so much confusion out there.
practically all my family and most of my friends took the vaccine because everyone was depending on those in charge to speak the truth.
now a lot of them are sick, and they can't figure out why.

I guess if you’re gonna have evidence, it’s better just to have anecdotal evidence. My car didn’t start this morning. Stupid vaccine..

North Korea Troops flying in to help Russia?
by liam inabout a month ago, some unknown poster who looked like one of those guys with a tin foil hat posted on a youtube video that north korea soldiers were landing on russia, during the night, armed to the teeth.
he was making these crazy comments that north korea had committed to help russia fight against nato and that they were getting ready to use nukes against nato countries if nato started using them first.
in less the an hour the video was taken down.

Ukraine didn't join NATO.
Russia already has NATO on its border in the Baltic States and now Finland.
US Nuclear submarines in the Arctic Ocean can hit any target in Russia in a matter of minutes.

Attended JW funeral today
by usualusername1 innever miss a marketing opportunity—even at a funeral.
funerals aren’t the first place you’d expect marketing.
but jehovah’s witnesses know how to turn every moment into an opportunity to share their message.. during funerals, they weave in their teachings of hope and resurrection, offering comfort and, at the same time, presenting their beliefs to attendees who may not be part of the faith.

About 10 years ago in the hall I was attending , there was a car accident in field service that killed two women ( I hate to use the term sisters ). It was in the middle of winter and it was a horribly cold January. No one made it out into service that month till the last week and with the C.O visit coming , everyone had to get in there hours. It was still way to icy and cold to really be out there.
The C.O gave the funeral talk or sales pitch. I was filled with rage. No only was it not about the person who just passed away, these women died trying to get fill in a time card and impress you. He never said anything like " Hey, don't endanger yourself to get hours in or make it to a meeting ". That was really the worst part.
I was so mad I just walked out.

I am a little skeptical of people who claim we must end the funding of the Ukrainians to try and save them. It seems a little like Russian propaganda.

I am not really sure what the alt-right angle will be on this one.
" Only if those pesky Ukrainians didn't fight back , Putin wouldn't have been forced to enlist the help of the most evil regime on the planet. It is all the fault of Biden and Harris ".
I am sure there will be banners of Trump, Joe Rogan and Tucker Carlson in Pyongyang before the end of the week.

I bet it was actually just Tony Morris just part of his greater persecution complex plan. Too bad the case was actually cracked by a man in a van with a talking dog..

Proof of two destinies for believers in the Bible, heavenly and earthly
by slimboyfat inthe jw idea that believers are destined either for heavenly life or for endless life on earth comes in for significant criticism by critics of various kinds.
even some groups, such as the christadelphians, who share belief in a future paradise earth, don’t share the view that some christians are destined for life in heaven.
yet there is surprisingly quite a lot of evidence in the bible for the existence of two distinct groups of believers.

I think you lost the plot when you said " Proof " and " Book of Revelation ".
The book is more likely just a hated filled revenge letter against the Roman Empire that doesn't have an audience beyond first century Jewish Christians.
