  firstly yes we all know most jw bornins leave but a quarter give or take continue.

  im going to argue that this is the only source of any increase.

  those that leave are barely replaced if at all by new recruits in third world countries.

  while your math is sound, im going to make a statement that religious people have more kids than non religious. the more funi the more kids, and im afraid i feel jws have more kids on avg, especially with the internet being banned and plasmas being a luxury. if we dpuble the birthrate my statement almost becomes trith. it is also true that there are a lot more younger than older types in the congs. this bias prolly means more kids.

  does anyone habe any kid out of total cong figures ?

  How the house of cards comes crashing down, in the WTS' own words.

  "rejecting or trivializing the genesis account about adam and eve creates a domino effect that undermines nearly every major teaching in the bible!

  such a way of thinking leads to a host of unanswered questions and a faith with nothing to stand on.".

  footnote: "these include teachings about gods sovereignty, human integrity, good and evil, free will, the condition of the dead, marriage, the promised messiah, a paradise earth, gods kingdom, and many others.".

  im assuming we all realise the gb may be many things but the individuals are not fools.

  given the changes in ideas, formulation of new light and so on, do they buy the fascade they are presenting ?

  if theres anyone in there, surely they as men, know how very man made it has always been.

  so they work their way to the top, eat, breath, watchtower so they get a free burial plot ? my country and im guessing most western countries also give burials to homeless people. seems like a lot of effort for something you can get for free or from any modest job. perhaps if they got a masoleum like the pyramids and you had an ego i could understand, but from i can see the benefits seem pretty small. the only outstanding thing i can agree upon is it must be satisfying for them to control millions on a whim.

  ah the song of solomon, or should it be called the erotic adventures of solomon and his sister, because thats what its about. then we have esther the hebrew form of ishtar the pagan goddess. why its included when it never even mentions god jehovah, who knows.

  so explain why god helps you with a bit of money but has ignore billions of poor who starve, slave away, get killed. many of those prayed aswell. simple you cant, prayer is nonsense or at best a cruel joke. stop being so self centered thinking god answers you before those other poor barstards.

  is biblical morality situational, based upon the arbitrary whims of yahweh?

  murder is wrong... if god orders it however, then murder is right, and failing to murder is a sin.. .

  actually the ot particularly tells us there are two sets of rules. the ordinary person must always follow these rules and provide for the establishment. the establishment can do whatever they wish, they are special cases we must not question. sounds pretty similar to the establishment of wts. everyone must obey those above. there is no honesty, truth or law, only obedience.

  what retirement fund? they work until they die almost always providing they are not senile.

  it seems they put in a lot of time so the shareholders cash in. if they had even half that commitment in an ordinary business they woyld benefit personally a lot more. at the very least they could retire and go fishing.
