  A radical direction for the WTS - speculation thread.

  what might the wts do to counteract growth stagnation and attrition?.

  of course they could ditch certain teachings and practices such as blood, shunning and homophobia.. how about if they closed the kingdom hall network (all proceeds back to mothership) and built out more regional mega-churches?

  <assembly halls>.

  I think there will come donation buttons on the apps and the digital magazines in order to get money in. I also think they will cram more people in the same halls and will shorten the meetings. They might even get the bookstudies back.

  JW morale reaching new low

  by kneehighmiah in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  many friends i've spoken with are becoming discouraged.

  because of this it's becoming tempting to privately share my views with friends, but i know this is still too dangerous.

  most witnesses in my circle are intelligent free thinkers.

  LOL... what is mostly satisfying is this...

  - a folk creates the piramids...

  - the poor buggers are getting their asses drowned

  - after the fall of babylon they return to egypt and create a complete new Dynasty... hooraaahhhh

  if you look at the first page of the kingdom ministry for december (link here), read the talk entitled: "the theocratic ministry school for 2014".

  here is a copy of what it says (bold & red mine).

  talk by the school overseer.

  It was one of the reasons I started to doubt by the bucket load... one of the worst parts was the "Revelation Book" that got some sidenote papers in the KM with all the paragraphs that changed... Boy that looked stupid!

  Dear Kate... why would you still play their game? All these stupid meetings are not for helping you but to let them feel powerful. As long as you acknowledge them as "shepherds" over you or your faith they will keep bullying you. They have shown they are actually not really interested in the truth I guess... so why bother?

  Choose for happiness... you are officially out... going back in would not change a thing I guess other then putting yourself in the hornetsnest again.

  Dear Julia, It takes a lot of courage to do it... I haven't done it because of the family ties. If I didn't have these I would DA myself straight away.

  I also understand the feeling of "fear". I once had a situation that someone was on a witchhunt on a forum and tried to find out who I am. If it would happen NOW I would not care really. For some reason I am ready to be "discovered" and to have the chance to say NO to a JC. They can fuck off :P

  Please remember that you owe NOONE an apoligy... you are NOT their slave and NOT their property. The feeling you have is understandable but it is a false feeling. x
