I bet 30 to 40 percent would fade out and stop going. Maybe more over time. The shunning is only to keep people in line.

How many would leave the organization right now if the shunning rule was removed?
by HiddenPimo indream scenario: everyone is made aware of all the wrongs, the false prophecies / csa problem / double standards - .
and they would not shun, how many would jump ship?.
my parents are fully aware of the sins of the org.

How have so many been fooled into thinking and believing itβs acceptable for a child to make a vow to serve Jehovah till the day they die?

you need to be 16 to obtain your drivers license.

If you are under 18 YO you can not sign a contract. It will not hold up in court. But the cult wants you to pledge your life at 8yo. Fuck this cult. Bring down the walls.

"ToMo3's liquor purchase video actually PROVES Jehovah's direction!"
by stuckinarut2 inok, so i played the game of putting on my jw apologetic cap for a moment, and thought of how a devout jw could rationalize this whole liquor buying situation.. they could say:.
"this actually proves that jehovah is guiding his organization!!
he was bringing this activity of tomo3 to light, and it would also prove to be a loyalty test for all jws, to see if they would be stumbled right out of the truth!".

That is not rationalizing its being a flat earther.

New Poll : Trump 51% Approval Rating
by minimus inmore than half the country approve of the president.

I don't think Trump is the best ever, but compared to the idiots I mean total asswipes on the left he is the only choice. Just the Green new deal is so stupid it should be grounds to put you into an institution if you think it good. There is not enough money to pay for such a crazy BS thing. Refit every building, cut cow farts, ground planes and get rid of cars and get off fossil fuels.

No one or five examples make a good crap. It comes down to what the elders of a particular congregation will let slide. I have seen congregations in California have just legal buy and have keg parties at the beach. That same thing would get you reproved in other congregations or worse. There is no line in the sand other than blatant drunkenness that is over the line. Being an alcoholic, a real alcoholic is hard to know unless you are close to the individual and even then sometimes hard to know. I know many alcoholics that function very well. Most carpenter and window washer elders would not know a true alcoholic from a Mormon.
Most real alcoholics have a high tolerance for booze. What would put me under the table is just to get them functional. People who are falling down drunk and almost unable to walk are not what many functional alcoholics look like. I highly doubt that Tony tight pants was buying for any other reason than he has a problem and can afford top shelf drugs to feed his habit. I would bet he is most likely a high functioning alcoholic.
Poor people who are alcoholics will use cheap Vodka, it gets the job done and at a cheap price. If they could afford 100 buck a bottle whiskey or other spirit they would buy it.
