  What`s your take on the subject ?

  with the built of new jw.org media studio's we can predict the future of the jw religion.. because we are living in an age of digital media, what will be the effect of this all?.

  will the religion generate a new population?

  we know video media is a strong marketing tool.. like to hear your thoughts.. gorby .

  I think Vidiot got it right on another post Gorby.

  Ten bucks says that if they follow through on it, it gets sold to a mainstream movie or TV studio (for a profit) within a decade. You gotta admit, it's a step up from flipping Kingdom Halls.

  Degree of Effectiveness of JW Letter Writing Form of Witnessing

  by Disillusioned JW in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  a newspaper article quotes a jw as saying "every (letter) i put in the mailbox, i feel, 'ah, this could reach somebody.

  '" the article also quotes her as saying "we are accomplishing even more now than we were door-to-door because this way everybody in the house gets a chance to pick up that letter and respond to it.

  it just feels good.

  Just a thought ? Could the virus be spread by letter writing ? Your handling of the paper your writing on , maybe you need to lick the stamp to post the letter or maybe even licking the envelope to seal it ?

  Just maybe it could be another way to spread the virus to a whole household .

  I wonder ?

  With a whimper, not a bang

  the thread about old timers got me thinking about trends i see with the watchtower.

  i've changed my opinion about where the organization stands.

  when i joined the religion in 1973 it was dynamic, even the small congregation i attended sent out three or four pioneers.

  The big problem with the JW`s religion is their pushing the GT ,and the big A ,as being imminent ,soon ,any day now ,and the last of the last ,last days.

  When none of this ever happens and doesn`t even look like happening even the most die-hard JW`s are going to call it BS.

  They cant keep stringing this line on forever.

  I`m surprised they haven`t come up with the last hours / minutes of the last day before this, just to string it along a bit further .

  And if they do; they got it from here.
