WTS reaching out to 3rd world countries will not sustain their numbers. In those areas,
the real truth will get out there soon enough and then the growth will stop. The kids will
hate the religion faster than they do in highly Christian areas.
I personally feel that growth will stop in just a few years. I also feel that it's highly
inflated with 15 min. per month publishers, fake-time-reporting publishers, and child-publishers
who won't stay on. Their actual productive recruiting is coming from NOWHERE.
Will they ever reach 8 million? Perhaps, but their real numbers are already plummeting and
they will never reach 10 million even in their fantasy numbers. I could be wrong if there is some
major war or nuclear incident, but new JW's would get educated or just plain tired after awhile
and leave.
I like the thought that they will reach 7,777,777 and then the end will come. FOR THEM.
