It’s funny how his numbers are stable for weeks when he’s absent but as soon as he shows his face some of his patrons drop off. It’s almost as if there’s something about his presence that reminds people they have been wasting their money sending it to him. His best strategy going forward would seem to be to make himself scarce, yet whenever he does surface from time to time people will be reminded to cancel their subscriptions. What a dilemma to be in.

by Vanderhoven7 inbecome a jw only if you can't cope with the real world.

This paper examines the ways in which the Witnesses conceptualise the modern world and how they resist the secular forces that threaten their religious identity. Close analysis of the testimonies of current members reveals that the movement’s millenarian weltanschauung is a reaction to a world that is perceived as hostile and ambiguous. The paper concludes that the Witnesses’ allegiance to this quasi-totalitarian movement signifies an escape from a modern age that hedonistically celebrates individual freedom.

There’s no way he’s outrunning in that policeman. Give it up already LE, you fugitive. You can hide but you cannot run.

I use the term “fugitive” much as LE himself uses the term “criminal defendant”: not necessarily having any relation to reality as such. Although in this case it probably has a better chance if we are honest. I think east European countries are fed up with western schmucks coming to their country breaking their laws, mistreating women, and generally making a mockery of their system. Witness Andrew Tate.

Steve Lett doesn’t look well
by Teddnzo inas soon as you see steve letts talk at the agm you think to yourself “oh my, what’s happened to him?.
his hand has plasters and his skin doesn’t look healthy, like he has inflammation or something serious going on.. he had put on weight and is all bloated and puffy .
his skin really doesn’t look good, the kind of inflammation many people notice after the experimental covid vaccines.. there have been very high numbers of people reported inflammation after the experimental covid vaccines.

I wonder if I’ll be able to grow a full beard in the time it takes his Lordship to get off his ass and make a token video about the Watchtower change of policy. 🤔
Don’t bother yourself LE, I just checked and there are already half a dozen Youtube videos on the topic, others have got this already, you can go back relax, or whatever it is you do.

Predictions for the next decade?
by jehovaxx inas it’s nearly the new year my prediction over the next decade or so will see the sense of urgency dwindle.
then some huge huge changes.
for example by 2034 in a decades time, they will have address the 1914 issue and will come out and say we can’t be dogmatic.

Or to put it a little less “dramatically” than that: there are internal and external factors involved in the growth or decline of religious movements. For the past 80 years or so calm external conditions have meant that internal factors (such as 1975, generation teaching, preaching, policies and so on) have tended to dictate the growth and decline of JWs. In the coming years external factors may not be as quiescent and may become more important in determining the growth or decline of JWs.
