What a waste. If I had 173 million toilet papers to throw away on such crap, I could just pack up and move wherever I want--as an investor. I would be able to buy my way to New Zealand, buy a nice place, and have plenty of money to start my business at my leisure--as an investor, I only need to invest $10 million to get in. And the expenses of moving, the paperwork, and trying to figure out how best to get there and how to do what I need would be quite easy to afford. That is the biggest obstacle--and the money they waste helping missionaries, hounder-hounders, and special pious-sneers would be enough to shatter that barrier into a billion pieces.

Average family size in the world has approx three children, of course, some of those children are baptized, but assuming all JW parents are two-parent families and have an average of three children, that would be a memorial attendance of approx 28 million. I guess 20 million isn't that great after all.

Interesting idea, Wanna Be Free...

Of course, they might have padded the numbers just a wee bit...?
