hour quotas timeline.
back in the old days long before 1952.
“after staying in our ‘home’ for two days we decided that if we were going to meet our quota of 140 hours for the month.
I remember well the huge chart dragged out onto an easel every month on the platform during the 60s. Average hours. Bible studies. Subscriptions. Mags. Books. RV/backcalls. Stern warnings for slackers who could be guilty of bloodguilt!
100 hrs a month for pioneers. Timed coffee breaks.
One CO (Andy Laguna) told me in the 90s he wouldn't even consider appointing new servants who didn't average 15 hrs per month with at least one study.
1914 1918 1925 1940s 1975 1914 generation what did i miss?.
Keeping track of Watchtowers' failed "Armageddon" prophecies is way too taxing!
It is easier to remember that broken clocks are correct twice every day, but Watchtower has never been right. :)
JWfacts.com covers the subject as well as anyone,
in my opinion. https://jwfacts.com/watchtower/1800s.php
the end of the times of the gentiles and the restoration of the kingdom.
the final stage of god’s plan on earth.
the fulfillment of prophecy: the end of the gentile age.
if you have been seeing the world news, you probably aware that zelensky launch a drown attack on putin and almost killed him.
putin lost it and hit ukraine with the largest drone and missile attack of war so far, killing not only soldiers by many civilians.
even trump has said putin has changed.
I googled the subject.
It looks like Putin and Zelinsky have each made multiple assassination attempts on each other during the war.
Nothing much this week from reputable sources. Guys repeating Hindustan Times or the Sun from mom's basement, don't worry me.
Too bad. Just think of how much misery could have been prevented with an early assassination of Hitler.
sorry for the posting error below.. my wife is reading crisis of conscience now.
this is good news because i know i will have someone to talk to when im caught and dfd.
but in her reading she is recognizing most of the names ( we were there at bethel during the 70s as a married couple) and asked what happened to reinhard lengtat?
If you Google his name there are pages about him. Sounds like a really nice sincere person. I wish I had known him.
ever wonder about the story of cain and abel?
why did jehovah like abel's sacrifice more than cain's?
maybe there's a subtle reason why jehovah likes animal sacrifices.
When you accept that the Bible is the written record of hardscrabble Bronze Age goatherders (carnivores) and not the creator of the universe, everything makes more sense.
Their life was hard, so they believed god must be an angry sociopath who desired blood sacrifice for appeasement.
back when the dinosaur soft tissue story was broken in 2005, i predicted that that many more soft tissues would be found and that it wouldn't matter if it was supposedly "65 million" years old or "165 million" years old.
the prediction has proven true and dinosaur soft tissue is routinely now found regardless of supposed age.
this is easy to predict using a literal reading of genesis and accepting it as history.... .
Who is the source of this YouTube site?
Not an accredited "Dr." of geology, biology, or Paleontology.
It is folly to leave Watchtower and its fake "experts," like Fred Franz, to grab onto new fakes.
i have just become aware of the 2020 us religion census, pdf available for free download:.
https://www.usreligioncensus.org/node/1638.
it's a lengthy read, but there's quite a lot about jws.
I noticed higher concentrations of JWs in poorer counties with high Hispanic % populations.
I saw some similar stats with other surveys regarding JW Spanish congregations.

Thanks! Great resource and very useful post.
The changing demographics help explain Watchtower's survival.
it seems like the organization is hunting down pimos.
maybe the mark o donnell lawsuit is just the beginning.. this leaked survey in canada is asking some very weird questions from select publishers.
all i can say is that this will help wake up some pimi straddling the fence.
Great deal if from PEW, a University, or another reputable source.
From Watchtower HQ...? I wouldn't be surprised if each had a unique number or code in UV or invisible ink to root out the heretics!
