  by ToesUp in

  2. beliefs

  i have been observing a pattern in recent wtbs publications and events.

  is the importance of the preaching activity no longer the number 1 priority?

  are not billions of lives still at stake?.

  @ insidetheKH: The World War II baby boom was between 1946 and 1964. Any growth in the late 60s and early 70s was the result of Armageddon fever.

  insidetheKH:

  "Average anual population growth is now about 1%,.. during the sixties and during the last century it never was higher than about 2%"

  And why was there a 2% increase during the 1960s?

  "In my congregations there are a lot of couples (pioneers en elders) that never got any children just because of that. So the birth rate among JW's is even less than the average birth rate in the world that surrounds them."

  Have you heard of John and Eunice?

  @ Finkelstein:

  "A major part of the way theocracies are maintained and structured is the propagation and utilization of fear."

  Very true. Saudi Arabia which has the death penalty for apostates comes to mind. Fear mongery embedded in their children's education from the moment they learn to talk.

  I myself was told in my disfellowshipping trial that if I were in Israel I would be stoned. That's what the Witnesses would do if they had sovereign territory.

  Nice to have you here tamagotchi.

  I know the feeling of having to suppress your emotions. I used to have anxiety attacks when out on field service. Are you planning to fade?

  Do they know you're out? You might want to post links to apostate websites. That should make them runaway. But if not, it seems that you'll have to take the initiative.
