with the statement in the study watchtower this sunday, that stop serving jehovah is a serious sin, the following:.
- can i conclude now, that we, (i, wife and 2 children), since 2008 pomo and no longer active in any religious activity, are serious sinners for jehovahs witnesses?.
writing this in a watchtower, a statement like that, could have big implications.. it makes me so sad.

i am writing to ask if anyone cares to share their experience and/or offer advice for people leaving.
i was raised in the religion, and both my parents died when i was very young.
i recently stopped associating because my conscience no longer allows me to preach or support the organization.
Take step by step.
We left fading without burning exsisting relations with some witness. These days you will be surprised how they remain contact, even social gatherings. Just play the bluf game.
There is no direct answer about how to get a new social network. Don't expect a new jw style netwerk where dozens of people welcome you with a fake smile. You have to work for it., except you choose for s new sect style life.
Real friends are rare. Choose them wise.

a change to their doctrine came from jackson.
this isn't a transcript of his whole speech but i thought i would try and get some of his main speech in writing.. at around 1hr26 minutes he starts talking about some dangerous thinking in feeling there is some wiggle room in regards to the schedule for the gt.
but you see, we need to be careful about what we are thinking about the number of anointed ones left on earth.
The guess work on the board is the same we did in private in the 90's.
My conclusion is that jw.org will do their strategy making for their own purpose to survive on long term.
Professor Richard Singelenberg, Utrecht University, wrote a long time ago that jw.org would transform to an "accepted" religious movement. Many changes in the years ahead gave proof to that.
So, people come and go, the society will survive like they did the 100+ years ahead.

these new appointments are troubling, to say the least, especially considering the factors surrounding their selection.
these appointments raise key concerns about leadership, experience, and what is happening behind the scenes at the organization's headquarters.
In a few years we will read in a wt article "Some witness thought the 144000 were not symbolic".
What I conclude after the AM 2024, is that the old jw.org is dead now. They are made ready for the long run. Young GB members, for the decades to come.
The old rank and file are nearly gone, the time is there to change to a modern and virtual religion.

can i call you friends, i think so after 23 years posting here.
i am dismayed how jwn is being "dominated" or taken over by a few posters, peppering the comments.
in the past, the admin did not approve of this and did remove some posters from jwn.
Amen.
