In 2010, these reports indicated a total of more than 1.6 billion hours of preaching, resulting in an increase of approximately 300,000 baptized members.
Right, 1.6 Billion hours of preaching for a total new 300,000 members. Or about 5,300 preachhours per new publisher. Or about 30 years of continuous waste of time to gain just one soul.
This is where you look at growth, brother, not the totals.
I am sure 5 million people can move more freight than a tractor trailer, but a what cost?

France closed -merged with Britain (10 years ago or more)
Hawaii - merged with the US
Ireland - merged with Britain
Alaska - not official yet but will merge with US

WTBTS is no different than any other business/corporation. They also know how to give out pink slips!
At least a secular business/corporation has the decency of admitting the real reasons (bad economy, hard times, business is slow). Whereas WTBTS puts some stupid, nonsense 'spiritual' spin on it to avoid 'egg in their face.'
LOL @ Mary!
Maze, while the WTBT$ has gained a couple of million (in third world countries), world population has increased a couple of BILLION. If jehoover is prolonging the days waiting for people to repent, he now has to slaughter a couple of billion more than he would have had to if he had just brought Armageddon when he was supposed to....according to his earthly channel, that is......
R & F Guy.... love that avatar
I'm excited that they are closing branches. Hope they close a few more.

Don't boohoo for the octogenarians who have been kicked out and need to start living in the real world. Let's hope their wheel chairs are motorized; God knows their brains are. Dementia Central coming to a neighbourhood near you real soon.
If the Governing Body isn't faithful or discreet it's the R&F's fault for not praying hard enough?????????
