insidetheKH...if you are going to throw about numbers, the Pew Survey has shown that JW's have the lowest retention rate of any "major" religious denomination. The rate of loss for those raised as JW's is approximately 67%. The typical age of baptism for a JW child is in the early-mid teens. The majority of JW's leave the organization in their late teens and 20's. I can use my own children as an example...baptized at 15, gone by 21. I don't see anything Slidin Fast said as contradictive...maybe you need to watch the next baptism at your annual convention and see the demographics for yourself. Figures don't lie...liars figure! -

No longer to use "house to house record" slips and "please follow up slips"!
by stuckinarut2 ina letter has just been read out indicating that effective immediately, witnesses are no longer to use the s-8 slip known as the "house to house" record slip, as well as the s-43 "please follow up" slip (usually used for foreign language people).. the letter stated that this is because of the changes in privacy laws etc that are becoming common in the world today.. i will try and get a copy of the full letter and post it asap.. .

Wow!...that is incredibly creepy. Lett sounds like a hypnotist putting his audience in a trance. I loved the reminder that considerable money has been spent to bring this loving arrangement to the people (especially the young ones!). I guess it is time to dig deep again to cover all of these loving expenditures.

Hey PS...welcome back!
So, what did your studies tell you about Theology and how has that affected your viewpoint? Are you a Believer or have you let go of Theism?
OOPS...sorry, I posted before I saw your answer earlier...if you can expand a bit with your insight, I'd love to hear it.

Telephone Conversations Today with 2 Elders Re: Shunning - Or Not?
by abbasgreta inmy alcoholic and aged jw mother is now extremely ill and is being cared for in every respect by my non-jw brother.
3 sisters visited him yesterday and were adamant.
that i (disassociated and shunned by her for nearly 3 years) was able to 'visit her any time' and that ' there was nothing to stop me seeing her' as long as i. didn't discuss spiritual things with her.

I am going through this myself...and I do have to say, the double standard is mind blowing! Not one of my JW relatives nor my mother's JW friends or fellow JW's would even acknowledge my presence in the past, but now that Mom needs care, they fall all over themselves to pass the financial and care burden to me. All of a sudden, I am getting phone calls and warm, friendly greetings when I see to her needs, and one of them comes by for a brief visit it's all smiles. I would not shrug my responsibility to my mother, and to her credit, she never shunned me...but I am floored at the abrupt 180 these "friends" do when they see an opportunity to shift any congregational responsibility to a "filthy DF'ed one"...hypocrisy at its finest!

Is this the new "Witness to all of the Inhabited Earth"?
by tenyearsafter ini just saw an email from a family member trumpeting how they met an individual and referred them to jw.org...they then followed up the next day with the individual, stressing to the "interested one" how they could read publications and have questions answered via jw.org.
my family member then went on to write, "i just had my first rv with mr. "x".
i guess this is the new reality of witnessing in the 21st century....
