whatever we think of it, you have to admit that it's quite "genius".. the door to door ministry as done in western developed countries where the jw quirky religion has probably reached their saturation level was a complete and utter waste of time in terms of the effort expended to recruit people.. at the same time, it was rarely something that anyone enjoyed which led to people being labelled as inactive, being pressured to doing more and maybe ultimately deciding jwism wasn't for them and leaving.. there was also the issue that many jws are actually pretty bad at knowing and articulating their beliefs so were pretty incapable of getting any meaningful message across.. they solved all this with the cart witnessing.

the real point isn't to recruit, it's to make life easier for jws.

now they can stand and chat with their friend, have a coffee, not talk to anyone or make eye contact and still act as a walking billboard for jw.org.

by oppostate in

I have downloaded from their webstie (Christadelphian) the following ebook : "The Devil the Great Deceiver" and then only once I have fully read it, I will tell you what I am thinking about it. It will take some time because English is not really my mother tongue (only French is) But English language is becoming every day more familiar to me. So it shoud not really be a problem, since I know some more Indian complicated language, as tamil for example

Ok I will tell you more about the above book next year. Till now be careful and enjoy real life. ! And take care. Your life is the most precious thing you have in your hands ! All the best for the next coming new and happy year !!!

i never fully realized it until i was just about out.

i adopted the attitude that “if mother says so, mother knows best!”.

it took me a long time to conclude they were actually a cult.

) wonder if he notices who does?.

"can you serve where the need for kingdom publishers is greater?".

https://www.cnn.com/2018/11/22/asia/north-sentinel-island-worlds-isolated-tribes-intl/index.html.

the message of jehovah’s kingdom by christ has already gained grand triumphs throughout the earth because he backs up and blesses the preaching of this “good news” by his witnesses in all the inhabited earth.

Pete Zahut and Searril, thank you for your comments.

I begin to think that I will reconsider my appreciation of the level of safety in the USA, for the simple reason that in fact I may have been influenced by what I heard on the news.
