    I am not sure if anyone has asked this before but I am curious. Does anyone know approximately how many of us have left the Watchtower Society in the past 20 years.

    It seems to me that it is compounding monthly lately. I know a lot of us have not been DF so there is no record.

    I have no idea what the answer to your question is. I've often wondered if every fading JW got up and left how many R&F would be left. My guess is, not many.

    OOPs I guess I missed a thread about this....I am not very adept at searching for past threads that I missed.

    Can you point me to it someone????

    Sorry I repeated a subject. I try to keep in touch everyday but don't always read everything unfortunately.

    A good question, rephrased "Are there more ex-JWs than current, active JWs"? If so, could we not simply infiltrate and take over? : )

    somehow I doubt there are more ex jws than current jws............but I wish that was the status.

    I was actually thinking that the numbers were only in the thousands maybe 10,000 of exjws compared to the million plus that are still IN.

    no, about 40,000 have been disfellowshipped annually, not all of them got reinstated. I would think we have more ex jw than jws.

    I want to add my thoughts. IMHO, Faders/DF'D/DA'D that are still alive today are much more in numbers than JW that are still alive today.

    I beleive the answer can be found in the wonderful publication "Millions now living will never attend another shitty-ass boasting session"

    Seriously, I have no idea, but imagine that we would be pleasantly surprised by the answer.
