    Is the growth of the organization that slow that now we have to go out and invite people to come to the district conventions?

    or is it that just not enough JW's are attending?

    Yes it is and the growth should turn into shrinkage around 2010.

    I did a chart on this a few months ago... I will post it tonight when I get home.

    "...the growth should turn into shrinkage around 2010..."

    IF they don't pull a 'Jonestown massacre' like Jim Jones did back in... '78(?) before then.

    This is the thing that really bothers me... many folks still attend the 'memorial' each year - even though they are ex-JWs and never go to any other meetings.

    I see this as being the 'kool-aid' meeting... when they say that everyone will partake... whilst having 'attendants' posted at the exits. No windows... no escape.

    The next years' numbers on 'partakers' would be quite impressive... if they got published.

    Yeah, and if the numbers are honest when they get published. Don't hold your breath. Remember, "All's fair in love and [theocratic] war."
