How many here believe the WTS really has has 8.5 million followers / 8.5. million members

by Hotpepper in

i think it's closer to 5 million with all the selling of kingdom hells and branch bethel's all over the world.

it's even hard to get a hard copy of the lastest craptower or afake mag now in new york city..

Wakanda

I swear I read somewhere here, or reddit, that they count the groups as congregations. It was supposed to be from bethel. Anyone else come across that?

Sounds like something they would do. Seems like groups are popping up everywhere, and sometimes they only have a meeting quarterly.

Watchtower is Messing With That "Dracula" Dude Again!

by Atlantis in

jw
friends

well, here we go with "dracula" again!

( massimo introvigne).. .

breaking: jehovah's witnesses have hired known cult apologist massimo introvigne to write a 21-page "expert opinion" defending the witnesses for their child abuse mishandling.

Wakanda

When I put his name into Duck Duck Go, the 4th result is a video on jw.borg. Good ole Massimo is talking about the Russian ban and defending JWs. His eyes dart a lot, maybe it's a vampire thing.

Pete Zahut, that is hilarious. Thank you!

Bro. Geoff in September 2018 Broadcast vs Serena Williams

by NeedToKnow in

the september broadcast opens up with a story of 80 yr old brother geoff who gave up been in a band all them years ago.

fast forward to 2018 and we have a world renown tennis player and jw as far as we’re told.. so where some are encouraged to leave the world and it’s futile pursuits of fame and fortune, others are not.

or even punished for their behaviour on court or for been photographed with their country’s flag where others have been executed for refusing to salute flags.

Wakanda

JWs know either through the rumor mill that she is not baptized, or they think she is not a 'good' JW (like Prince).

I love JWfacts, and he is not spreading rumors.

I said people either know she is not baptized or they think she is a bad witness. The rumor that she is not baptized is true.

I can not say who I know, but I do know she was not baptized as of 2012.

Putting words in someone's mouth is a sort of logical fallacy, is it not?

Exactly Carla! JWs know either through the rumor mill that she is not baptized, or they think she is not a 'good' JW (like Prince). Wt loves the publicity and loves the world thinking that she is a faithful witness. Those cowards don't have the balls to come out and tell the truth about her. I do not mean her harm, but she IS harming women by pseudo endorsing a harmful cult that she does not have to obey.

Why are they announcing 2019 conventions so early?

by Richard_I in

jw
friends

i was just told there will be international conventions in canada in 2019. .

so i looked at jw.org and i see that there's a whole bunch of conventions now listed on the site for 2019.. isn't this odd?

normally we were told the location of conventions during the first week of january.. did they realize there was less in attendance in the 2018 conventions, and want to give ppl more time to make travel arrangements??

Wakanda

They must make a lot of $ in cities like St. Louis MO (2019) and Detroit (2014). St. Louis, btw, is looking as bad/dangerous as Detroit. Can't trust 'em, but especially for convention destinations. Hopefully the poor JWs look up St. Louis and see what they are in for. My info comes from two people who have traveled to both places recently.

Edit to say: Also, they did not just announce the ICs, they announced every convention, that is new.
