I am sure they are putting positive spin on all that is going on, but you do not have to be a Leolaia* to see that they are moribund and fighting a rearguard action.
The mind-controlled Witnoids will not see it though, to them ,whatever happens is proof we are near the Big A.
* To say "a Leolaia" is the JWN equivalent of saying "a Steven Hawkins" or similar.

Yes, a young witness woman who lives locally had triplets. Apparently the excited congregation is now confident of an increase in meeting attendance - although they will have to wait a few months before the 3 new arrivals burble their well-rehearsed lines to thankless householders.

STILLTHINKING - look up the questions from readers on vasectomy/ tube-tying on the cd rom. They already are the catholic church!

...say it isn't so!!!!!
Clearly they haven't been promoting that enough then....geesh.
I suppose it is a hard choice though...recruit......shag........what to do?...what to do? Can't really be seen putting pressure on people to shag.

Very soon, a lot more trees will be saved from the WT axe, due to a 50% reduction of public magazine pages!!

Mag resize "Less is more, right?"
Also regarding news, there is a special talk this Sunday with the title "Is it later than you think?" and you can follow the outline of the talk as it was an Awake article from 1968, not sure of the month but written some 44 years ago!!!

Given that the 1968 article was a regurgitation of an Awake article from the 1950s, shouldn't the title of the special talk be:
"This time around, is it later than you think?"
...Actually, given that Chuck Russell was wetting his pants in the 1860s and 70s about the extreme nearness of the end, I don't think they give a monkey's about once again crying wolf.....
