  1290 jw congregations have been deleted since 4th dec 2022. i have a full map so you can explore active/deleted congs, and also orphaned halls https://analytics.jws-library.one/viewmap.html.

  many of the deletions in the usa appear to be foreign language groups.

  R&R

  Sounds like plan. I believe Shorewood and Crest Hill congs share it with a Spanish Cong.

  I knew many people in both those English congs years ago. I wonder how many are out now.

  Please keep us posted!

  PS. Sent you a private email on this board.

  I wonder where the people that attend the Crest Hill KH will go; that’s 3 congregations, and I believe this KH was built in 2010.

  The closest KHs are Joliet and Plainfield (unless they decide to sell those).

  The Evolution Of The Watchtower Cult

  by pale.emperor in

  1. watchtower

  since waking up from the cult i've been curious about where the cult is going and how will it end up?

  will it fizzle out or become a little fringe "religion" like plymouth bretheren or the shakers?.

  we've already seen the cult evolve from:.

  Hmmmm...If I had to venture a guess (based on what happened to the Christian Science movement), I believe the org will eventually contract to about 20% of its current size, and level off there. How long that will take, I have no idea...
  

  They will still have people doing more mindless busy work, but as long as they have some membership, they can claim to be a non-profit religious organization, and if they're smart about their money, won't have to worry about getting tons more from the slashed membership -- just manage their total asset portfolio properly.
  

  Just my theory. I'd be interested in hearing others views on this.

  i wrote a letter some time ago and to my surprise and despite the elders manual saying that a letter is sufficient for establishing 'wrongdoing' they would not announce me as no longer a jw until i met with 2 elders to verbally acknowledge that the letter was written by me.. .

  well yesterday i met with them and the meeting lasted 2 minutes.

  "did you write the letter?
