There was mention about consolidating Hawaii/Alaska branches together, actually I think they already did... The winner was Hawaii, because I have personal ties to the islands... and I know for a fact it's still up and running.

WTBTS Elder & Ministerial Servant Problems
by JW GoneBad ini attended a recent ministerial servant k m school on the east coast and the main school instructor mentioned among other things (part entitled: 'objective of the km school course') that the total number of ministerial servants is seriously less than it should be.
in times past the ratio of m ss to elders was much more than it is today.. in the u.s. apparently the total number of elders is 88,500+ as opposed to m ss 65,000. the numbers show & numbers don't lie: the society is running out of spiritual men.
the instructor stated that this is a new downward trend that has (in so many words) the society worried.. the next speaker (part entitled: 'why we must be spiritual men') added that in his years as a traveling servant the pool of m ss has always been much, much larger than it is today.

This is very enlightening. Why can't more of you elders and ministerial servants that attended share with us nice tidbits of information like this?!
This is as we thought though, we all knew that the numbers weren't adding up and that the pool of 'spiritual men' is drying up, but to actually get some factual information or at least firsthand hearsay, this is great news.
This will force the WTS to drastic changes if this continues. Drastic times lead to drastic measures. One can only hope the drastic measures is enough to piss more off and leave!
Thank you for sharing your insights JW GoneBad.

Attention Lurkers- Consider the effectiveness of your lifesaving work
by stuckinamovement inhypothetical scenario.
you are a city manager in a major metropolitan city with a population of 3,000,000.. .
if the governing body was truly convinced themselves of the impending disaster and the fact that the end is imminent would they not focus their efforts in spreading the message through effective means such as telephone, television, internet, social networks etc?

SIAM! Amazing, I love it and I want to copy and paste it for future use. I'd love to send this off to every JW on my email list as well as printing off a few for the elders in my congregation. This was well done. It's not too angst riddled, in fact, I can't say it is at all, bu you just know that the mind controlled mentality will step up as soon as a dub see's this...
Thanks SIAM!

WT articles that make you go, "WTF?"
by undercover inmarch 1, 2011 wt kool aid edition.... the article: does the bible condemn gambling.
notice the highlighted boxes.... first the indication that the catholic church does not consider gambling itself a sin... and then challenges that because no scriptural passages are given in proof of their assertion.. the very next column though, the wts admits that the bible does not directly mention gambling.
so, um, how do you expect the catholics to come up with scriptures if there are none?.

Is the WTS getting set to take the money and run ?
Oh man, I sure hope they do! That would be a scandal to blow up in their face. If there was one thing that could destroy this cult is this, I mean they would have to know that something like this would destroy them, but it would be a quick death, something we could all hope for.

I'd hold on to those little goodies. Thy Kingdom Come and the Aid book are two that the WTS wishes they could eradicate every copy in existence. One day there will be a museum of extinct cults and you could donate those books towards the cause of awareness.

Sounds like they roll through that resolution annually. I've heard it in the states frequently (as in at least once a year). It's just a money funnel to support the WTS since its 'donation' arrangement isn't working as they thought.
