Proof WBTS is downgrading 1914
by yesidid inmaybe they're keeping the doctrine but they are not writing about it as much in the watchtower.. below are statistics from their 07 cd showing how many times 1914 was mentioned in the watchtower for each year 1950 to 2006 .
i have divided the years 1950 2006 into segments of eight excepting for the last, which is nine.. on the side i have the average for those years.
notice they have gone from 88.87 a year to 24.44. .

What if regular meeting attendance wasn't a requirement?
by R.F. inwe all know how regular meeting attendance is the ultimate way of measuring the "faith" of those among the religion, other than field service reports.
what do you think would happen with the attendance numbers if you were only encouraged to go as a sort of option, if you weren't hounded for not attending regularly?

there are many people on this forum, many have gotten to where they are many different ways.

PRAYERS that you have endured.....
by nomoreguilt inin the course of our wasted time in the org we have all expierenced/ suffered through the ten minute closing prayers at assemblies/conventions.
so many times there have been others that just couldn't escape our attention.
humble wanna be's, pious glorified one's, and just out and out condemnatory oratories to the flock.

The Memorial
by TheDoctor ini saw some mention of this in another post, but i wasn't sure if there was a topic about it.
being raised in the "truth" its always pointed out that even people who haven't been to meetings in years still come to the memorial.
ive noticed that a lot of time that is actually the case.
