  Absalom prefigured young JWs who fist bump, play video games, and take pictures of themselves with the opposite sex

  by JimmyPage in

  jehovah's witnesses top the list in not being able to hold on to their younger members.

  so what do they do to combat this?

  do they go out of their way to change things to keep the next generation, their only real hope of long run survival?

  any suggestions?

  attending an invite (strange we're invited but hoping to make it worth my while) but i don't want to suffer big consequences as i've already said enough wrong stuff.

  i'm stuck reading hassan's ccmc book (about half way --- just don't have time and not into it).

  I will always be closer to Jehovah than you are- I'm taller than you.

  No, as usual, they double down on crazy and go out of their way to alienate them.

  Cults eat their own.

  That's my impression of the most recent WT study which had an artist's rendition of an ordinary teenager doing ordinary things- fist bumping their friends, playing video games, and taking pictures of themselves with the opposite sex. This poor ordinary guy gets labelled a modern day "Absalom" and the WT conductor says the only answer for others around him is to "cut off all association with him".

  Gee, I wonder why the WT just doesn't seem to appeal to young people anymore?

  JEHOVAH

  does that name produce in you any feelings?.

  when you see that word, "jehovah", does it make you think of god?.

  do you ever use that name- jehovah- in your life at this point?

  Yes the name does conjure up negative emotions in me. Not enough to stone someone, but it is repulsive. http://youtu.be/MIaORknS1Dk

  I was lucky enough to have read the "Flock" book prior to my judicial hearing. I knew what they needed to hear and I played them. I got off with a slap on the wrist.

  AGEING CONGREGTIONS

  by sieborg in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  hi everyone on this forum,this is my first post but i have been lurking around here for about a year.

  i was at the hall this morning and as i was looking round i noticed that, if 20 years down the line i was stood a the back looking around, more than half of those at the hall i attend would be dead due to old age.

  if anyone still goes to a k/h ,are the ones in your k/h ageing.

  This is absolutely true. Where I live there have been large waves of death that have spread through the congregation, one after another dying due to old age and age-related illness. The smaller congregations I've seen consist almost exclusively of elderly ones. And even when it appears that a young person is reaching out for congregation "privileges" it soon becomes apparent they are biding their time and at first chance they jump ship into "the world" and get DF'd.
