How Will The Governing Body Decide Which Kingdom Hall Properties To Sell First When They Need Cash To Pay Child Molestation Lawsuits?
by frankiespeakin inwell i think it is safe to say that when push comes to shove and they need money the governing body will start selling these buildings.
now maybe this new pledgeing money on a regular monthly basis and robbing the congregation's of their bank accounts that are higher than three month running cost might forestall the sale of kingdom halls in the immediate future probably or most likely.. but when the going get tuff they will be selling them right out from under the publishers who paid for them.
this will be tramatic to many when this occures, any way word will spread no matter how much they try to stop it.

@frankiespeakin there were and are no losses. Look for example at the amount they spend on in
caring for special pioneers, missionaries, and traveling overseers in their field service
assignments each year. In 2013 alone it was 200 Million dollars and every year this amount is increasing.Each year the number of publishers is growing, the number of congregations is growing, the number of biblestudents is growing , the number of languages in which they print stuff is growing. Thats a lot of growing. This new arrangement to fund the building of Kingdom and Assembly halls around the world is a guarentee for future growth. They never made more money in their entire existence then they do now and will do from now on.

Whatever happened to the "Fall of Babylon the Great" and the "drying up of the churches?
by villagegirl ini am from the era of the babylon book, and all the wt predictions that the churches of christendom would "dry up".
the book babylone the great has fallen god's kingdom rules, said people would leave the churches of christendom, in droves and the ministers would have no more people in their churches while "god's organization" would see a tremendous increase, a huge overflowing great crowd, all streaming into the watchtower and coming to the "faithful and discreet slave" for instructions.
thirty years ago there were six million jw's , today after the "great increase", and " great crowd" is now ?

in Western Europe its drying up rapidly. In my own country there are for example 1593 catholic churches which are still active and open. The archbishop declared that within the next 10 years more than 1000 of them will be closed and demolished or sold. The catholic church overhere officially has 4 milliion members overhere but only 200,000 of them are churchgoers and most of them are aged above 65 yrs old. Every year about 20,000 less people go to the catholic church. That means that within 10 years virtually none of them are left. In the 70's more than 2 million catholics went to church every weekend overhere!
The picture is the same for the protestant churches overhere. So yes its drying up at record speed in Western Europe.

Why do Christian nations think they can assimilate Muslims into their communities , does Islam attempt to assimilate Christians in their communities ?
by smiddy inislam /muslims today are what christianity was centuries ago , the two beleif systems are like oil and water , not to be mixed .
christians are not tolerated spreading their infectious disease amongst muslims, in islamic countrys , and harsh penalties apply for them doing so in muslim countries , including the death penalty.
stonings , whippings etc.. on the other hand christian nations are very tolerant of muslim extremists who incite hatred and violence on their own territory , and they get a slap on the wrist and say dont do it again .
