  On the Yearbook's Report(Again)

  by Alex Bryant in

  hello.

  i have a question about the number of publishers reported on the yearbook.

  i was wondering if this number refers only to the number of publishers baptized or to the overall number of publisher(baptized & not baptized).

  Yes both - thats why its impossible to actually figure out how many witness there are, how many have been DFed. It makes all the stats mirky. A healthy percent of those publishers are young kids.

  Steve2, actually there was an article that talked about it. It mentioned that even though that is increasing, the end is still very soon. I dont remember which one but it was not long ago.

  Yea I heard that --- from JWs - counting dead loved ones. It's not true. Have never read anything like that, or heard it from a credible source.

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mormons

  P.S. other BS from JWs is that Jews have lots of babies because one of them is gonna be the Messiah.
  Can't trust those JW's :)

  Watchtowers policy of shunning our own close relatives

  by Truthexplorer in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  having looked over the february' 2016 wt study article ' learn from jehovah's loyal servants' and meditating on the 'advice' from the fds aka gb regarding the shunning of our own close relatives if they have been disfellowshipped.

  the example in par 7 highlighting how a woman called anne shuns her own mother for 'as she says' cutting herself off from jehovah.

  i can't help but wonder how audacious and wreckless watchtower is in writing this stuff.

  Shep - i think "this guy" MICHIO KAKU may know a bit more than you do:)

  As part of the research program in 1975 and 1977 at the department of physics at The City College of The City University of New York, Kaku worked on research on quantum mechanics. was a Visitor and Member (1973 and 1990) at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton[7] and New York University. He currently holds the Henry Semat Chair and Professorship in theoretical physics at the City College of New York.

  Kaku has had more than 70 articles published in physics journals such as Physical Review, covering topics such as superstring theory, supergravity, supersymmetry, and hadronicphysics. In 1974, Kaku and Prof. Keiji Kikkawa of Osaka University co-authored the first papers describing string theory in a field form.

  Kaku is the author of several textbooks on string theory and quantum field theory.
