This thread should get very interesting...
I haven't been to a meeting in about 3 years but my congo breakdown was roughly the following:
- Children: 5%
- Teens: 5%
- 20-40: 15%
- 41-64: 55%
- 65+: 20%
Very telling indeed....
i'm just curious?
since i have become aware that witnesses are getting older and that the youth is leaving (well in western lands anyway), i have started doing counts by age group of the people sitting in the hall.
generally in the hall that i attend i have found that 2/3 are 40 and over while 1/3 is 40 and under.

i searched to see if it had been posted before on jwn but couldn't locate anything.

special assembly day (sad) bethel speaker ( a very good speaker i might add) in his talk " follow your spirit-directed conscience gave example of and elder and his family.
he noticed his wife and daughter spending a lot of time morning noon and night on facebook, it almost seemed like that is all they did, so as a spiritual head decided to see what they were constantly looking at, "let me see what you are spending so much time looking at on facebook said the elder".
the wife explained this is how we keep in contact with the "friends", elder started to look at her page and she was correct, there he found friends in the cong.
You don't have to follow the advice that Jehovah provides you through his only spirit-directed channel.
(Just keep in mind that you'll more than likely be destroyed in Armageddon if you don't.)
my parents used to let us watch this series growing up.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wei5oek53h8&list=plsg87pnp-rju50meptced92tlyyym7wir.

then, it became prohibited.... the only explanation they provided us thereafter was that this cartoon was made by satan and his demons.. .

D&G reminded me of Gumby and Pokey.
Actually the producers of Gumby had so much success with this character that they created Davey and Goliath.
By the way, I remember how Bible-based animations in general were severely criticized by J-Dubs in the 70's because these were allegedly designed to brainwash children... Anyone else had similar experiences? Yet, 45 years after Davey & Goliath, the Watchtower produces an animated DVD with a completely idiotic message about Jehovah hating a plastic toy.

the aawa website jwactivists is down for repairs or whatever, so here is my prediction of what it will be when it comes up:.
* the site will have removed all mention of jwn.
* the site will have revised their own history.. * the site will have a registry that will be contingent on confirmation of identity in relation to the wts, but will also limit the function and communication of naysayers of john cedars' only working organization on earth.. * privacy will not be addressed.
sorry... ship
