It didn't take going to college for me to realize this religion was a big lie.

other religions teach that god helps us to become prosperous.
jehovah does not do that.

Most controversial?
by joe_black ini know that most of what the wbts says and does is viewed by many of us as hogwash, but what do you think was the most controversial thing that happened or was said by the watchtower in 2006?...............i mean something so obviously off the wall or sinister that it would make even the most hardcore jw pause and say, "hey, what the f*ck?!!

My wife who "studied" back in the late 90's with someone who knew the owner of the tour company. She has received brochures periodically from their company offering various packages. I actually know that it is owned by a P.O. of a congregation in the area where the witness that studied with my wife used to live. It has also come to my attention that there are also very rich JW financial backers whom he owes alot of money to. Regarding the brochure, I wonder if all JW's names and even their "studies" are on their mailing list?

Jehovah's Witnesses- Ever Increasing Religion 1,069,530 American Publishers
by Joker10 inthere are 1,069,530 publishers in america.
notice the growth spurt at the beginning of 2006. the last month of the service year shows an increase of 2.3%.
this year and/or next year may very well show jehovah's witnesses as the fastest growing religion in america once again.. .

According to all the reports I have seen, the stats show that Islam is the fastest growing religion in America. As I posted in an earlier topic the Jehovahs Witness numbers are very insignificant compared to the Big religions. So I would suggest to the poster to go toot your horn elsewhere, lol.

2006 SERVICE REPORT - Feb 1, 2007 WT
by Mary ini'm not sure if anyone's posted this yet, but here are the figures for the 2006 service report.
i highlighted the countries that have either a "0" or negative growth in yellow and i highlighted key countries where the you would expect more growth......i tried looking for england's stats, but i couldn't see it.
i looked under "england" and "united kingdom" but i can't see it.

I especially like to see the 0% or negative % in JW strongholds like Germany, Canada, Argentina etc. The ultimate would be to one day see a negative in the United States column.

The "cartoonwitness" that Blondie posted above looks just like an A-hole JW I used to work with, and just like the cartoon he didn't know or couldn't remember anything worthwhile.

JW says the end of religion is beginning to happen!
by awol inwhen talking to my jw friend.... she asked me if i had seen the news about businesses now not putting up xmas deco's etc.
this is so as not to offend people of other religions ie jw's and muslims etc.. she said this is going to lead to (a start of) the banning of all religions worldwide!?.
i said i think it shows more tolerance and respect for other religions.... that is not how she sees it (or any other jw's that have been discussing it).. what are your thoughts on this.

Do Jehovah's Witnesses crave an 'Amish Paradise'?
by Gill infrom as long as i remember the watchtower society has painted an idyllic rural scene for their future existence on the planet earth, free from the non jehovah servers that live now.. my mother regularly talks about her 'little donkey and cart' that she's going to own in the 'new system of things'.. so do the jehovah's witnesses dream of living in an 'amish paradise' minus the amish, of course?.
do they have any idea what kind of nightmare existence that entails, especially adding on top of that five meetings a week, continuing fs, studying etc?.
-

joe_black
I would say that 99.9 percent of JW's couldn't handle the Amish way of life. 2 weeks into their "Amish Paradise" they'll be crying out for the "old system" and all the amenities this wicked world provides,......PS. most wouldn't be able to balance a fruit basket on their head anyways, lol.

Someone from Oregon "ME" - View on this James Kim event
by free2beme ini spent last saturday about 10 miles out of grants pass bring some supplies to a friend who was in the search and rescue for james kim, and talking with people who were looking for him.
being a long time resident of oregon, i can tell you exactly where he was, as i have been down that road many many times.
it is a remote location, at best, and locals mainly use it for hunting a fishing access, or maybe a chance to go motorcycle riding through the mountains.
