Each years the population grows by 1.17 percent. That is approx 79 million.
The numbers of population reaching age 60 or retirement years is approx 900 million. That number will increase by double in 2050.
I know that Armaggedon is still hoped to come, but, what if it doesn't come? What are your fall-out plans?
7 billion, yikes!
Makes me think of what Dwight Schrute said, "there's too many people on this earth, we need a new plague!"
I believe the society once said the earth could easily have 10 billion people on it, providing they were spread out. We need to remember the reason this has happened. It is because the infant mortality rate is now much lower than in previous centuries. Plus because of better health care people, are living much longer. These are good things that now happen. A lady who lived 10 miles away from me died last year age 111.

Interesting statement.......A god directed Armaggedon won't come, but that doesn't discount something else controlling the population.
That's 1 witness for every 1,000 people on earth.
So if every witness preaches just 40 hours per month starting today, the preaching work could be completed in less than two years and Armageddon can finally come!
LOL Alfred!
That's okay, aliens are gonna come and take over the planet and destroy 99% of the worlds population anyway and then make us eat split pea soup.

If Jehovah had brought Armageddon in 1975 like Fred Franz told him to, there'd be 3 billion less humans to slaughter.
The world's population growth alone over the past 50 years is a big problem for a JW-style Armageddon.
Most of it is in China, India, and other South asian contries, where JWs don't bother going to preach. Add to that the closure repurposing of Gilead and its easy to see that the clowns running this show are interested in only holding on to the current members and keeping millions in the bank rather than "spreading their lifesaving message"
