this was mentioned at the service meeting.. but, it should be worrying to the society, not as wonderful as it may sound.
the number getting baptized each year is shrinking rapidly.. at one time, they boasted of baptizing 1000 dubs a day which equals to 365,000 dubs.
this was back in 1997.. at the dc this year, it was 5,000 a week.
You know in the days of playing simcity, morarilty of your city was important in order to avoid revolts!
i know the wt has said why knorr and rutherford died but not russell.
this omission seems somewhat strange, being that he was so prominant his followers would naturally be curious as to the cause of death of their beloved leader.
here is a clip from 1916 12/1/1916 wt concerning his death no mention of what caused it.. http://www.ctrussell.us/.
Knowing that he led a celibate life, he probably had prostate cancer
during a recent c.o.
visit, the latest itinerant from the society seemed a bit subdued as he talked about the difficulties.
of his employment.
Many people give them cash in envelopes (they always dress well

The one in my hall says he was a pioneer and then became a C.O.... He canno retire, no social

i plan to call up the branch office and pose as an 'interested one' and ask a bunch of difficult questions i am almost positive no jw witness will be able to ansewr.
1. if the supposed "light is getting brighter" then does that not mean that it is possile that many of the teachings that the society is teaching now may be false such as blood transfusions and the 1914 teaching?
2. since any witness who speaks against the wt and refutes one of their teachings and is therefore disfellowshipped for it, what if the very teaching that they spoke against turned out to be wrong later on?
If we don;t follow the old testament, why are so many rules taken from that?

He died from Aluminum!!!! LOL
the thread about the 6 million bible studies reminded me of some things that always bothered me about going door to door.
1. as mentioned in the other thread, there were times that cos and elders would tell us to not identify ourlselves as jws.
tell them we are "students of the bible" or "concerned neighbors", etc.
I guess that why we now have to do phone service, and learn other languages..... The territory is thinning
Condo's have tight security, and they will not let JW's in
