4 generations of the royal family.
excuse me, i'm one of jw's, i only see one overlap generation of the royal family.
.
i remember hearing that the anointed that died would start ruling at the start of the thousand year reign.
now it seems they are teaching that these deluded bozos that die get to rule right now in heaven.
when did this teaching change?
i know i have mentioned this on other posts.
as a born-in, i was obsessed with the watchtower.
it was god's organization.
seems as though the number of baptisms even for the young ones is down from what people report here.
at my former hall the young ones are all in totally sheltered even while going to school.
expressing thier desires to pioneer etc.
I don't see a huge exodus of young people. Believe or not the young jw's are having loads of fun. Many are world travellers (under the guise of going where the need is great). Service is a joke. I see pictures of groups of these kids standing with their carts and having a great socialization with each other.
When I was growing up , there was a lot of the young population that left or got disfellowshipped, but I have not seen one young person being disfellowshipped . At least not in my area.
i am just curious who on this board is in the same situation has i am?
a spouse that is fully brain doogled in and you are awake to ttatt.. without going into serious detail and no names are given.
i would like to possible talk with one of you all, it's just so helpful to communicate with someone in the same situation as me.. i am located in the southwest united states..
Hi goingthroughthemotions, I am awake now but it took about 10 years after my husband figured things out. I am sure my hubby would talk to you.
PM me if you like.

i was contacted by my ex sister-in-law yesterday.
she asked me if i wanted to spend some time with my niece, while she went to her sister's baby shower.
it turns out my niece can't go because she's about to be disfellowshipped at the ripe old age of 14. .
i have spent 45 years of my life sacrificing my soul to the watchtower.
twenty-five of those years as a ms/elder.
i gave every moment to them.
