there have been posts and topics about the wtbs imploding and feuding factions in bethel etc.
some have said that the end is near for the wtbs.
is this just wishful thinking...or do you really think that this is a reality?
A lot would depend on the question if China would open its doors to the Society in the near future. There's a huge potential membership to be found there.
quite a while ago an older sister stopped by my door, and stupid me, i let her know my life story in a nutshell.
faded for 7 years, former ministerial servant, blah blah blah.
i think the reason i did it is that she reminded me of my mom and she caught me at a weak moment.
What did you expect the elder to say? Something like 'You're right, son. The org sucks' ?
i thought i would start a weekly column of wts inanity, inanity serious enough to have affected peoples perceptions and negatively changed their lives.. .
one famous wts myth that i have heard uttered more times a minimus question is that ?women feel while men think?, did you ever wonder where the wts dug that thought up from?

Richard if you can get the funding, I'll get the 1,000 subjects, no problem
Pork chop, if you have 100 subjects (active JWs), that's more than satisfactory for comparative research. As for funding, I assume there are some US foundations on (mental) health care who might consider to provide a grant to a clinical psychologist or psychiatrist who is willing to do a PhD on this topic. So the first step is to find someone who is interested to do the job.

I think getting 1000 JW to voluntarily cooperate with this research project is a much bigger problem.
