  What % of current JWs sincerely believe Armageddon will come within the next 30 years?

  by jj123jj123 in

  2. experiences

  just to give you a little background about myself, i was a born-in, i'm in my late 20's now, i faded away a few years ago after researching the history of the wtbs on the internet.

  my fade was aided by moving away with my job(i definately feel lucky about that).

  eventually, i had discussions with a couple of my closer jw friends about why i no longer believed in the wtbs.

  It all depends at what stage of indoctination one is. I know of a few very new witnesses that think that the end will come within the year....then there are those who lived through 1975...well they won't say it out loud but inside themselves these know that it wont come.

  A Gem From This Week's TMS

  by torn in two son in

  before i get to the gem in this week's tms, let me let any of you newbies here up to date with us jdubs and schooling.

  in the february 22, 2002 watchtower, the wtbts released the article titled "how my dream was fullfilled".

  it was one of many typical jw stories of a good devout jdub "resisting temptation" and accepting the borg as absolute truth.

  Yup.......most educated.......after all hasn't it been said in talks that if you keep up with the watchtower and awake for six months one would get the equivalent of a "COLLEGE" education????

  They are pathetic! and the rank and file goggle it up too.

  I remember being deluded myself and believing this crap too"! Then when the rose-coloured glasses came off I started to pursue a degree, I realized that what is dished out to the rank and file is probably the equivalent of grade 5.

  those bottles are too well placed on the desk. Looks photoshopped to me.

  Makes one wonder about other things on this site. Don Adams is saiid to be the head of governing body. can anyone verify this?

  One more category of JW

  by Giordano in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  the jws need one more category of witness............ a jehovah's bystander!

  they're like the witnesses, only they dont want or have to get involved.

  i know it's an oxymoron but think of all the problems that would solve.. .

  Thats a good one.....I never thought of the "Jehovah's Bystander". There are many of these roaming the congregations. They come regularly, love the friends, but never make a commitment. Smart!!

  By the way, welcome Giordano.

  maybe the effect of this change is bigger than realized?

  in 1995, it was discussed (positively) by everybody, during the week we studied the wt.

  one elder stepped down and was looked down upon.

  this morning i was trying to think of what you used to call that that method of field service were we bounced all over the the territory map hitting calls that were distanced far apart to waste time.

  there was a funny term you called it at the kh but i can't remember.. i'm posting this instead of private message because someone else may know.. .

  2. friends

  i'm admitting to be very pissed off.....and bitter.

  i'm sick of having no job security (i know its relative), but mostly because i did not go to college....... has anyone gone back to school post 40?

  how was the experience?

  I'll chime in too. I also went back to college after forty. It's the best thing I could have done. If you don't want to go to a physical school, there are so many online university and colleges with a variety of programs to choose from.
  Good luck.
