Thanks sd-7, that part is quoted on the page actually, but this shows that the same mentality runs throughout the last century. No newspaper coverage back then, though..

'Mentally diseased' was nothing new
by The Quiet One in"the watchtower of october 1, 1909, said: all who cut loose from the society and its work, instead of prospering themselves or upbuilding others in the faith and in the graces of the spirit, seemingly do the reverseattempt injury to the cause they once served, and, with more or less noise,gradually sink into oblivion, harming only themselves and others possessed of a similarly contentious spirit.
.they seem inoculated with madness, satanic hydrophobia [rabies].

There are more Jehovah's Witnesses in Portugal than there are Scientologists in the whole world
by cedars init would be nice if this little nougat of information could be more widely known - especially by journalists.. the quoted figures for scientology are taken from tony ortega's 2011 article in the village voice, which quotes former scientology pr executive jeff hawkins as saying.... "i know that event attendance internationally was somewhere in the region of 25,000 to 35,000. the international 'bodies in the shop' (people actually in the orgs that week for service) was 16,000 to 18,000. ias was struggling to get 40,000 members.
based on this and a lot of other information i was privy to, i estimate the actual number of scientologists at a maximum of 40,000. that's on the high side.".
portugal is one of 33 countries with more than 40,000 active jehovah's witnesses - demonstrating the gulf in size between the two faiths.. the following list shows all countries with more than 40,000 jws according to their reported peak publishers for 2013.. .

Ok then, maybe nobody cares, but I found this part amusing.. "They were no mistake, no product of evolution. That they suddenly appear in the fossil record unconnected to any fossil ancestors, and also disappear without leaving connecting fossil links, is evidence against the view that such animals gradually evolved over millions of years of time. Thus, the fossil record does not support the evolution theory. Instead, it harmonizes with the Bible’s view of creative acts of God."

I guess you have nothing to add except for a sarcastic quip or a criticism, judging by what you put on my other thread as well.. How old the article is, or how out of date is irrelevant. If you had bothered to read the thread title, you may have understood my point.

"I do not belong to Jehovah’s Witnesses,” wrote a newsman in the Czech Republic...But watch it—they are not fanatics. They are people who are absorbed in humanity.” ..lol
