At the local level they have had a few new persons baptized and everyone has came from various mental institutions or group homes that are from the area. They are not in them as of late but every one has spent some time intitutionalized. This bothers me they brag about the new members and are so proud of them.

3Bible Study Statistics
by TheListener ini've always thought that a meaningful statistic, that isn't specifically reported by the society is the percentage of bible studies that get baptized.
there is a steady downward trend of those studying getting baptized.. here is the u.s. and world statistics since 1990 for the number studying vs. the number baptized:.
(honestly i can't figure out how to format this stuff very well).

The WTS 's fear of the internet
by greendawn inthey pressured their own followers into not setting up websites to promote the jw religion,they have demonised the internet as if on every webpage there is someone ready to destroy the faith of a jw, and they are monitoring websites that are hostile to them to see if they can find ways to legally close them down.
.
why do they fear the net so much if they have the truth as they like to parrot so often?

Maybe they are just tired of all the pop-up ads and think that the pop-ups originate with the demons
Damn I know it. What should I do the pop ups are going to get me. Here is another, evil demons be gone in the name of Jehovah, be gone you demons.

Good idea.
Scholar thanks for letting me see once again the fertile effort of casing ones tail. I love how many time you went around the issue without ever touching it. Ray Franz said they tried so hard to find proof when there no proof, even Fred Franz know the Society was wrong. You can be like Fred and die knowing the real truth. All of the entire worlds history prove you wrong and yet you chase your tail.

What's your theological worldview?
by LittleToe indidier: .
i know you are going to find this amusing .

You scored as Emergent/Postmodern. You are Emergent/Postmodern in your theology. You feel alienated from older forms of church, you don't think they connect to modern culture very well. No one knows the whole truth about God, and we have much to learn from each other, and so learning takes place in dialogue. Evangelism should take place in relationships rather than through crusades and altar-calls. People are interested in spirituality and want to ask questions, so the church should help them to do this. Modern Liberal 64% Emergent/Postmodern 64% Classical Liberal 50% Evangelical Holiness/Wesleyan 50% Reformed Evangelical 36% Neo orthodox 21% Charismatic/Pentecostal 14% Fundamentalist 14% Roman Catholic 0% -

How much of a Witness are you? Take the quiz!
by AlmostAtheist ini've wasted most of a day putting this quiz together.
it's only 10 questions, please give it a go and see what you get!.
if you think it could make a decent anti-witnessing tool, i might dress it up with links to the quotes site and the watchtower site to prove the accuracy of the points made.. if you see any inaccuracies or misleading comments, please let me know.. url = http://www.thebentinel.com/jw-quiz.php (embedded below).

Scholar you sound like a cat chasing its tail. Seventy years was for all of the country's that fell some fell one year into the campian and other fell many years into the campian. So if you want to chase your tail please do it gives me a mental picture that make me laugh. The kings list the records of the money makers of the day the reocrds that go on and on and on that proves the date of 586/7 are way to many for a dog that is shown water but way to dumb to drink as I mentioned in an earlier post can handle. You remind me of JWBEN and DFEND when it came to them answering my blood letter.

The Blood doctrine - A Medical or Scriptural issue?
by Jourles inif you were to ask any witness whether or not the blood doctrine is scripturally or medically based, you would receive the same answer 100% of the time.
"scripturally, of course.
there is one component in particular which shows the wts uses medically based information to cement its postion on what is and what is not allowed for a witness to accept.
