They believe 100% their own BS.
They are Captives to a Concept...great book by Don Cameron explains it all.
are you sometimes dumbfounded at the direction the governing body takes?.
thousands of documents proving 607 bce is wrong, yet the gb sticks to the date, why?.
the generation that would not die, yet they continue by introducing an overlapping generation.. disfellowshipping at a time when everyone is leaving, not a good idea, yet they continue to disfellowship.. here is a video that addresses these questions.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbgeqhp9o9i.

i’ve noticed a change in family attitude recently, like there is just something extra on their mind.
i even had to call my brother to check if he was dying and too scared to tell me.
anyway, i saw a video last night my saying jws think we only have 12 months left before armageddon so thought maybe this is the reason for changes attitude.
The GB 2.0 and the WT have to watch what they say...they can't be getting hopes up again by saying "the final part of the last hour of the last day of the last days" crap now in 2020 when in 2025 folks will remember this and more will wake up.
If the GB are intending to keep their dubs happy in the long term they need to shut up about any mention of where they think they are in any stream of time because time kills all cults...it kills their beliefs, doctrines and prophecies because they never ever come true.
This to me show the GB 2.0 are all in and all in for the short game...like a game of poker they have come this far and are putting everything in that very soon now the end will come.
In the next ten years you are looking at vast amounts of people posting on here and Reddit waking up trying to make sense that they still believe yet are seeing clearer and clearer something does not add up right.
This is why all cults change their doctrines. The WT has to change their 1914 reliance or time will simply make it obsolete.
Tick tock...
i hope this is in the right area.
i've been studying the 2520 days/years 607/587/586 debacle.
for a while now i have felt 1914 was wrong.
If the WTS heads one day say we were wrong about 607 BCE, he in turn will say the same.
Well they have done so already...it was originally 606 according to the WT.
It's like me saying I'm 21 only to read my birth certificate and see I'm 22 then adjust my date of birth rather than accept I'm 22.
i hope this is in the right area.

This thread perfectly highlights why you cannot discuss objectively facts that show the WT is wrong with mentally in JW's.

Scholar has been arguing for the WT's chronology on this site for years, probably decades. He rarely comments on any other topic.
And still gets it wrong and shows Cognitive Dissonance.
the thread about old timers got me thinking about trends i see with the watchtower.
i've changed my opinion about where the organization stands.
when i joined the religion in 1973 it was dynamic, even the small congregation i attended sent out three or four pioneers.
As with all cults time is their enemy...it proves them wrong....and if they reinvent then just further proof they were wrong in the first place.
hopefully i’m doing this right and it will display for you.
this is an interview with michael yeadon, former vice president and chief science officer of pfizer.
of course he has been attacked, slandered, shunned, ect, and this will never be allowed on social media, but he has taken the time to appear in an unpaid interview.
Notsurewheretogo,
How do you know those very sites you mentioned aren’t the people Michael Yeadon mentions as the ones twisting the facts and lying themselves?
Why don’t you contact him?
DD
Conspiracy theories...gotta love

He is wrong in that video...it is dangerous to be wrong on this subject. Research and facts are important and his video can easily be refuted.

sorry, the article is behind a paywall.
however, here's a copy of it without the photo:.
It is poor journalism, they were never revoked, it was just a possible consequence...the writer hastily wrote the update.
whether they go back to door-to-door or not, what will be different?
do you think there will be a noticeable drop-off in attendance as we have read on here that many have left or faded?
will there be a mass selling of halls?
I expect sales in window stickers or signs along the lines of "No JW's etc due to COVID" given we are going to have the virus for many years like other flus.
