I remember two yeasr ago, a Self-righteous elder's son told me that one of my friends (who was inactive for about 6 months) dissasociated himself by default because he was inactive. That statement made me very angry but it conveys the general views of most people.

They arent counted in the report, but I think if the slow down in converts continues the society might find a way to justify them being in the count.
The new 15 minute publishers were a transparent attempt to boost the numbers artificially. I think inactive people are next.

"In the past we felt that inactive publishers of the Good News should not be counted in the world wide report. Further reflection on the scripture at (insert scripture here) shows that even ones who do not regularly report time should be counted as publishers of the Good News? Surely this loving arrangement from the Faithful and Discreet Slave will spur many of our brothers who have slipped into inactivity to action in these Last Days.Our next article will further discuss how Elders and others in the congregation can continue to help those who are less active in our midst."
