I do agree with that. Pictures from select locations showing “full” or “empty” halls and assemblies have holes in them so large that you can drive a monster truck through.

District Assemblies now being held at Circuit Assembly locations?
by ShirleyW ini haven't been to a kh in decades, so i get the google alerts for jws and i got one featuring a local news channel in brooklyn covering the assembly being held in flatbush, brooklyn.
i'm sure that venue is where the circuit assemblies are usually held, keeping in mind it's summer and that's when the district assemblies are being held.
why are they acting like they're so strapped for cash and now holding district assemblies in circuit assemblies locations ?.

by Ray Frankz inhi guys, long time without paying a visit to this site.
today i returned to check a 'gossip' that is running around in brazilian exjw forums.. they are stating that is almost certain they will make a big change in their doctrine maybe this year yet in the annual meeting.
they say people in warwick were commenting on this.

The “big changes” and “huge announcement” hype was exposed here over a decade ago. I guess people never learn:

I said “nearly 80 percent” not 80 percent, which means you read what you wanted to read.
Seriously?

You left all those caveats out until your assertion was disproven, meaning you were being deceptive.

DarkKnight,
I was at that 2014 convention. There are 65,000 seats at ford Field, and jws used 45,000 of them. That’s nearly 80 percent of the total capacity:

That was on Friday.

Tiki,
You apparently missed the point of my question. I’m arguing it costs MORE to host months of coventions than it does to ONE large convention in a rented facility.
JWs would also have to pay more for maintenance and upgrades due to increased usage. Rented facility owners would have to cover that.
Besides, it’s just more practical to use your own facilities than it does to rely on people who can tell you “no” if they don’t like you.

Put your thinking caps on: what costs more:
Holding ONE large DC/RC in a rented building like the old days, or hosting months of smaller RC’s from late May to September, which means more smaller buildings will need to be built, upgraded, or maintained?
Could it be that they want to give people a greater opportunity to attend a RC if they have to miss for any reason, or that they would rather be as less dependent on third parties as possible?
Its not necessarily a cost savings issue. If I could provide venues independently, I would as much as possible.

Why aren't the JDubs receiving more bad publicity concerning the abuse cover-ups?
by Sour Grapes ini know that the jdubs think that they are the center of the universe and in actuality, no one except ex-jdubs gives a rats ass about these religious crazies.
my question is i read that as a percentage of pedophiles per members, that the percentage is larger in the watchtower company than in the catholic church.
i would think that would catch someones attention in the media and make a good story.. what really pisses me off is the watchtower cult is gloating about all of the negative press the catholics are receiving concerning pedophiles not even knowing that the jdubs have thousands of sexual abuse cases that have been covered over.

Of course, the ARC was clever in their wording. They are apparently saying WTBTS of Australia didn’t report. Well, they (WTBTS) are third parties getting second hand information. They can’t help the police if they did report, like the people with direct knowledge of the situation can.
Did anyone locally report (local elders or the victim(s) and/or their families) is the question.
