wonder just exactly how many have left the WTS over the last 100 years? certainly would have thought there was a hint of disappointment in the millions that have done so, the WTS churns over millions and has the very worst retention rate of any man made cult. Disappointment with a capital "D"

Dontcha just love it when they make a statement like that from a place where you can't dispute it? Like a convention platform or in the literature?
It reminds me of the Wizard of Oz being behind "just" a man behind a curtain when all of Oz thought the man they saw in the bubble was the wizard.
Cowards! (Cowards are listed as ones who will not inherit the kingdom, aren't they?)

OMG! What! Are they serious????
Sad but true ...and the Watchtower CROOKPORATION knows it .... It is not a lie if you believe it .... LOL!
When they say "never dissapointed US" by "US" they mean the Board of Directors not regular JWs ... no matter what happens they are secure in their penthouses with maid and chauffer services. 'I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.' (book of Revelation)

When the WT expands it's proof of Jehovah's blessing.
When the WT contracts it's proof of Jehovah's organizational direction.
And either one is proof that Armageddon is just around the corner...

Yeah, I'm sure the GB has never been disappointed with Tha Org. It's never failed to provide for them.

unshackled, OUCH. Is there a thread that discusses that issue of AWAKE!? Were blood fractions really an issue in those cases?
Franklin...that Awake was from 1994, and yes those kids on the cover had died refusing blood transfusions (what a shining example of a complete waste of life.) From what I know it was sometime after 2000 they made the adjustment to the blood doctrine, where it was then up to one's conscience to receive blood fractions.
Did a quick search and here's a couple threads that came up. I'm sure there's more though...
