Checking Up On Disfellowshipped Ones
by Boredposter inif my memory serves me right in the 80's there was an effort to call on those who were disfellowshipped.
elders would seek them out (or we're supposed to) to see if there was anything they could do to help them come back.
it seemed like a good idea at the time to me.

Maybe attendance was so low at their Kingdom Hall they decided to kidnap a few people and take them to their Hall for a meeting.
A new level of "flirty-fishing."

STRANGE BEDFELLOWS
by lastmanstanding inchristian legal fellowship (clf) seems to have a new member.
the jehovah’s witnesses aka the watchtower.the membership list does not seem to be public, but i am sure that with enough inquiries from the public -that clog the arteries of their email server- we can get at the truth.just like the watchtower affiliation with the un, it seems now the watchtower has affiliated with trinitarians.the clf brings legal action on behalf of the tower.. .

I recognize what both posters are saying.
John Davis is correct, and the OP does have a point in his own way.
For me, the bigger question has not been asked:
"Why is God's neutral organization involving itself in something that is PURELY a political matter.?" It would have been no different for Jesus to have joined in with the Jews protesting against Roman taxation.

There is a high-ish plateau throughout 2013 - anything to do with the hoopla about the new 2013 revised bible and beamed in meetings from HQ?
Then a drop followed by an all time peak at August 2014 - the big hoopla 100 years conventions - so might the traffic be to do with these?As well as this beauty: https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/269218/will-this-memorial-our-last

Anyone from Germany here? I am curious if it just might be that they closed down a lot of foreign language congregations? They did that in the Netherlands before.
The redditor is German, and speaks of resistance inside Bethel (love the terminology). He indicates the opposite - i.e. that foreign group numbers are being used to prop up the number of total congregations, while the reality is a decrease in regular congregations.
