The extra good news is that every day that goes by increases the debt. The bigger it is the more JWs will hopefully wake up.

Contempt of court, case in San Diego county really disgusts me!
by Crazyguy inthis case has to be talked about by ever awake jw every apostate everyone.
this case because they refuse to hand over documents the court already knows they have because they handed them over before but heavily redacted, is the icing on the cake!
this case shows thier evil plain and simple.

Am i reading this right...? The preaching work is done??
by Nobodyspecial inim sorry if this has been addressed, i have not seen any topics on this yet.. the wt for today seems to state, quiet plainly, that preaching work is done.
para 14,15 the question asks:.
"what proves that jehovahs witnesses have fulfilled jesus' prophecy with regard to the scope of the work?".

Study article: "Go, and Make Disciples.." is a hot mess
by Sanchy inso i hooked into meeting via phone this week to listen in and was shocked at the absurdities mentioned in the study article (2016 may watchtower: "go,..and make disciples of people of all the nations").
the answer is obvious—only jehovah’s witnesses.
the answer the missionary priest gave in no way proves that jws are the only ones "preaching the good news".

According to Ray Franz when the society were sending missionaries out, they were told to go to the 'Christians' first before they went to any people of other religions.
In other words they already knew about Jesus and the bible, long before the Watchtower missionaries got there.

How baptism rate at conventions relates to yearbook growth rate (Discussion)
by bohm inwe had a number of posters report on the baptism rate at conventions which is usually less than 1% and rates lower than 0.5% is by no means uncommon.
despite this there is still a positive growth rate in the us (0.71% according to the yearbook) and i wonder how these numbers relate.
i wonder if anyone can help me out if these assumptions are true:.

Baptisms, peak publishers and average publishers are all in the Yearbook. The ratio of attendees to baptism candidates at the regional assembly can only give us a rough idea what the years baptisms will be. And these days it is normally well below 1% at the regional assemblies.

Well done Freddo. Its always good to hear the reasons that people begin their exit from the org.
I think there will be many like yourself who have been shocked by the ARC and the stupidity of the generation teaching.

BREXIT - Lets provoke some comments please
by ZAPPA-ESQUE inthis is wunder-food for dubs [my dub family are already having apocalyptic orgasms about this ]" its 'bad" this is the "trigger" .... "you should come back now " .
so in reality what will it bring for you and i - the regular pawns of society ?

No question JWs love things like this. They will be telling vulnerable people that this shows how man cannot get on together and rule themselves. They will be saying that the only answer is for God's heavenly kingdom, which will be taking over very soon.

Clarification about two witness rule please .
by jhine ini was talking to a witness the other day , she was explaining about false religion, and the subject of paedophiles came up .
of course she was adamant that the watchtower deals swiftly and decisively with offenders .
i was about to ask if she was aware of the two witness rule and how that is a let off for child molesters when l remembered reading on here that now they accept two different accusations from two different victims .

Yes that is what they say now. They have had to change their view on this because they realized how stupid their original policy was. However the fact remains that if there is an accusation against a witness of sexual abuse and there are no witnesses, nothing is done They say leave it in Jehovah's hands.
