I figure about 3% attend the Memorial annually. With D/F's and faders there would have to be another 2% and say 10% who know something vague about JW's such as work mates, clergy, doctors and the like. Perhaps another 20% who have heard of JW's and that's about it.
Now confine that to 30 or so developed countries.
The worlds birth and death rate far outstrips the ability of dubs to get anywhere near all the earths people.
I'd leave it to Jehovahs stones to cry out.

What % of the world's population knows about the JW's?
by JH ini'd say about 5 percent know about the jw's and their message.. i'm not talking about how many countries they are preaching in, but really, how many people out of the 6 or 7 billion on earth, ever heard about them and saw them at their door preaching..

australia on brink of ashes sweep.
6:19 pm january 4. england was left facing the prospect of a 5-0 ashes whitewash after limping to 5 for 114 at stumps, leading australia by just 12 runs, on the third day of the final ashes test at the sydney cricket ground.. kevin pietersen (29 not out) and nightwatchman monty panesar (0) were left with a near-impossible task to stave off defeat after australia ripped through the england batting after tea.. the nadir came in the penultimate over of the day when captain andrew flintoff was stumped for 7 after being judged out of his ground by the slenderest of margins as he played forward to shane warne.. but alastair cook (4); andrew strauss (24); ian bell (28), and paul collingwood (17) had all failed to fire as australia closed in on what will be the first five-test ashes series whitewash since 1920/21.. the australians were buoyed by a bravura batting performance from warne, who earlier top-scored with 71 as australia piled up 393 all out just before tea to take a first-innings lead of 102 runs.. brett lee (2-34) and stuart clark (2-29) then combined to keep australia in the driver's seat.. lee started the rout in just the third over of the innings when he had cook caught behind.. clark trapped strauss, before lee and wicket-keeper adam gilchrist combined again to remove bell.. collingwood and pietersen added 34 runs for the fourth wicket before collingwood edged a catch to a diving matthew hayden in the gully to make it 4 for 98.australian innings .

Why animals die?
by EzroJP ini know why human beings die, but why animals die?.
did they commit anything wrong according to the laws of god, so they have to die?.
-
-
bigmouth
No, no, no. The animals have to die so they filter down through the sediment and make oil so we can run machines. This was part of Jehovahs grand plan from antiquity.

My Kingdom Hall is near extinction!!
by RULES & REGULATIONS inour kingdom hall was started in 1973 with only 3 families totaling 13 people.it grew to 85 members in the early 90's and that's because many were related to these 3 families.with older members dying,the young leaving when they reach 18, 5 divorces and many disfellowshipped,the congregation is down to 26 members.talk about low morale.
where is jehovah's blessing now?

Under believer, exactly right.
My cong., when I joined, had about 45 pubs and about 7 on the servant body. Now, about 15 publishers and NO servants. An elder from the nearest cong. an hour away is rostered to travel each week. -

Sorry to hear that Zerbagain, it's a shame we can't choose our parents.
Welcome!
In my case it was to please my mother and to make homelife more tolerable. I failed miserably. It got worse. -

The Society Isn't about Money. The Governing Body isn't the Illuminati.
by under_believer inno, it's not a vast conspiracy for the governing body to get rich.
it's about power and control, but not personal power and control.
the watchtower society is a living, nigh-sentient entity unto itself.

"I remember hearing the same story about 30 years ago except it was a little girl."
Yep! Identical story told here at a DC about '84.
Remember when members of your cong. got up at the assembly and told you stories that made your jaw drop and then you found the exact same 'experience' was told by a dozen others in various places!?
