Barb Anderson did some digging a while back, and put it together.
Unsurprising, really…
…Russel was a businessman, and activities like that had less chance of a return on the investment.

The preaching work in general was never truly about converting new members.
It was about having a demonstrable activity and paper trail for federal revenue agencies to qualify for charity status.
Soup kitchens, clothing drives and the like never interested them… an attitude dating back to Russel, in fact.
If it were really about converting people, there’ve always been way more effective methods of doing that, and the WT leadership certainly had the resources.

by hoser inthere are 1/2 of the jehovah’s witnesses that there were 30 years ago in my area.
some have left but i think that many have died and none of their kids stayed being jehovah’s witnesses.
7 congregations have been dissolved over the years.

In many ways, elders are more likely to become PIMO, at the very least…
…they see behind the curtain far more than the rank-and-file.
It’s often harder for them to leave, though…
…because the higher they climb the Watchtower ladder, the more cost they’ve sunk into the fallacy.

Stan - “…the watchtower thieves have really shot themselves in the foot grabbing the kingdom halls and flogging them for a quick buck…”
Not to mention that if they’re charity status is ever revoked, they’re suddenly on the hook for hundreds of millions in property taxes for the ones they haven’t sold off.

The Governing Body is Restructuring the Org.and encouranging young ones to REACH OUT!
by liam inthe governing body just doesn't let up on encouraging the young children to reach out to do free labor for the organization.
so another generation of young people with ruined lives.
another generation of young people that will get old and wake up in their 50s to realize they were in a religious doomsday cult.. and they are getting rid of some old workers that ran the branches of the organization, and giving them different assignments or maybe they are just sending them home, who knows.

Remember using the term BORG to refer to the WTS
by blondie init's interesting that when watchtower is referred to as the borg, it immediately brings to mind the scenes where individuals such as captain piccard are held prisoner within a vast collective hive type prison and unable to leave.
they are then turned into drones.
in fact here is how wikipedia explains it.. the borg are a fictional alien group that appear as recurring antagonists in the star trek franchise.

babylon the great is not just a city—it is the system that governs the world economy.
this was god's first judgment against economic babylon, but it would not be his last.. the three parts of babylon's economy.
