estimates range from 4 million to 15 million children die from starvation each year on this planet.
that's between 500 and 1700 children a day, depending on what numbers you accept.
still, no matter which numbers you use, doesn't this make you arrive at one of the following conclusions?.
Maybe off topic
I find it odd that a person would say he can have an intimite relationship with someone (god) that he can't see or hear.Call him his freind.He can have a REAL conversation with this person.In his mind this person(god) is real,has a personality and such attributes as:love.kindness,merciful,forgiving,etc.
Is this any different from a schizophrenic who has hallucinations and hears voices(God) that are real an tell him to decapitate a man on a canadian bus.
Also religion is famous for::::::Ostracizing,shunning,breaking up families,conflects(war)

AK-Asks"If you were God"
If I was God(Powerrful all knowing etc.)
I would repair the Earth.No more earthquakes,floods,hurricanes,droughts,tornadoes,Winter stroms.
Temperatures 65-80,rain when required.(No A/C or Heating required).
No weeds or nasty insects,(No chemicals or pesticides required).
There is more but you get the picture.
Just these few things and you can see man would not be ruining the earth.

The J.W. will make fun of Campings' wrong end of the world date.However, they will fail to see how many times the GB/FDS/WBTS were wrong in their dates as you so wonderfully brought out.They are such two faced B#@%%%$.
Remember all those articles about,how J.W. sold thier homes before 1975, to go and preach because the end was near.So why do they make fun of those who preached Camping message.They can't see the forest for the trees.Or I should say when they look in the mirror they don't recongize themselves.

You say branches are being merged and consolidated to allow the many bethlites to focus on the preaching work.My question to you.Are you not defeating your purpose by having your members working for years and years on your new large facilities instead of focusing on the preaching work.
When the real estate market was hot,you jumped on the bandwagon and started to sell off your vast Brooklyn real estate properties.When the market went south your Brooklyn properties were taken off the market.My last question.Are you not being materialistic.

Mickey mouse:What do you mean some.I say all should be put in an Asylum.
The Governing Body(of the USA only) does not need or maintain a world wide list of anointed ones those don't count.
I always thought this Watchtower religion was a USA ONLY religion.

on the news the other day they showed a young man after graduating from high school went out and got drunk and had a bad car accident.
he was paralyze from the waist down.
instead of going into deep depression of what he did to himself he started his life over and went to college and was involved in inventing a exoskeleton for disable people.
For those who are apologists:What about Memnonites,Amish,Hutterites,Born again,Seven Day Adventists and others.The world would be better under them then JW'S

And how about killing Er then giving Ta'mar to O'nan only to have him killed because he (coitus interuptus).Just think of the suffering of the widow.
