Correlation decline JW numbers and JW broadcasting?
by Gorbatchov ini read some impressive figures here about the decline of the jw numbers in 2015.. could there be a correlation between this decline and the start of jw broadcasting?.
hence, that there would be an negative impact because the gb is standing so nearby, you can experience the idiot reasoning of their doctrines sitting in your own living room?.
the lett effect?

a clear embarrassment to them Morris and especially Lett, both shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the broadcasting section and they have rightly lessened their airtime, to think these 2 chumps may have single handedly been responsible for quite a few leaving and many not joining, they couldn't have planned it better! -

its an impressive stat, it cant be denied, but they never publish stats of how many unread mags there are out there, they clearly must know because when we as jw's would return to houses where they had taken them and asked " did you get the chance to read the mags we left last time?"
how many times would the answer be NO? yet we'd say " well perhaps you would like to read these new ones?"
and the usual stupid pattern would emerge of the RV! pointless, wasteful and lazy, typical of life as a jw.

a few in London have merged and disbanded in recent years, old traditional congs that have been around since the Russell era, of course they are the fastest and biggest growing religious group on the planet though -

Jehovah's witnesses are the fastest growing religion.

at the same time they are undergoing a worldwide billion dollar construction project that will see 30 Tabernacles/Temples constructed, the sure sign of a group in massive decline. -

not by the 2014/15 report, a clear embarrassment for them, after their decades of boasting , the celestial chariot moving at speed! maybe the CoLDS have a more accurate, realistic and honest approach in the way they report their world wide growth, and dont put a pathetic spin on everything like the WTS does, wonder what the 15/16 report will be like? they have they fall out of the ARC to deal with. -

2015 Worldwide Memorial Attendance: Another Sign of Decline
by steve2 injw memorial attendance last year - 2014 - was about 50,000 shy of 20 million.
some posters on this forum had confidently predicted before the 2014 memorial that attendance would hit more than 20 milion.
they were wrong.. now, in 2015, and the memorial falling on a weekend night (where attendance is historically much higher), attendance has not only failed to top 20 milion but has declined by more than 87,000 in attendance over 2014:.

steve2 , I see Mormons in my area in the high street and in the D2D every week, sometimes more than that, there seems to be a bit of a Mormon stronghold around these parts, the Tabernacle a few miles away is packed out every week, it causes traffic chaos, the local KH sees a small handful of cars parked outside it. -

I remember a time when they used to have a special month in the FS distributing tracts for the up coming memorial, I remember the vast amount of "folding" of the tracts we had to do as kids to get them ready to be left on the D2D, probably another waste of time , cant have done it for years. -

I never ever see jw's on the D2D work around here, a big suburb of London, just never happens at all, and I'm talking about a good almost 4 years since I moved here, I moved to the borough in 2004 and can say I've never seen them at all in D2D, just the usual lazy sitting around the carts gossiping and playing with their phones. -
