He is damn good! but c'mon that's called a sport too? At least in golf you walk few kilometers in a game. Oh I forgot, they ride those carts. Snooker is more like a game at which practice is the main ingredient. I take the Michael Jordans, the Peles, The Gretzkys as far more gifted and impressive.

Snooker debate has finally been settled...................
by The Fall Guy in............by the most successful player to date, stephen hendry himself.. while commentating on the uk masters final last night, he said this;.
“if there's anyone in any sport displaying more genius at their sport than ronnie o'sullivan does at snooker, i've yet to see it.
best player i've ever seen!”.

A little critique/commentary on the first of the new Public Watchtowers (No.1 2018) - Corrections and additions welcomed
by doubtfull1799 in“all scripture is inspired of god and beneficial.”—2 timothy 3:16.”.
what/which scripture was paul referring to?
how is it possible to know with any certainty without being speculative or dogmatic?

If the Bible is better than science, then I'd like to see JW's going to a "doctor" that claims to use only the Bible to heal. That'll be the day!
Excellent critique doubtful!

"sure I understand, but if you use the JW-to-population ration from 25 years ago, you still get a figure today of 3,135 JWs in SD."
But that would be missing a glaring point of the article. The JW population is shrinking while the general population is not.

Dark,
You make a good point. However, the greatest JW source in the U.S. is the immigrant population. South Dakota is definitely not a state with a big immigrant population. So the average that you are using is quite likely not representative of South Dakota. The "white" population of South Dakota is far less likely to be a JW than, let's say, the heavily immigrant population of los Angeles.
The Latino population, for example, brings far more publishers to the watchtower than just about any other group. The Latino population in SD is only 3%. I guess SD didn't enjoy the big surge of Latino publishers that I witnessed in recent decades. Therefore it is fair to infer that ratio of JW to population in SD should be lower than the U.S. average

When did "no part of this world" exclude crowdfunding ?
by redundantcartworker inif this family are j.w's, is this not a bit hypocritical ?.

Hypocrites?... maybe. Stupid? certainly not. They know quite well that Satan is far more generous than Jehovah. Good for them. That's a very small step in the right direction

Why "Most high"?
by Doug Mason inif there were only one god, why do we encounter the expression, "most high god"?.
is this not indicative of polytheism, and of levels (or degrees) of god-ness?.

The "most high" is a subtle reference that identifies not the deity, but the worshippers as a group. They are the "most high"

WARWICK
by Phoebe inas it's highly unlikely i'll ever go to warwick, i found lloyd evans latest video fascinating.
i had no idea that the whole 'museum' (if you can call it that) was so big.
notice the credit card machines by the entrance.

Lloyd's ego? making money? who cares. He has hurt the Watchtower far more than those complaining about him. And he has done it at a great deal of cost of his time and resources. Why shouldn't he get some pay and the opportunity to boost his self esteem?

I am with Slim, there's an exJW behind the article. However, the general idea stands; the religion is shrinking. Also the general information about JW's is true. Regarding the details referring to South Dakota's numbers.... who knows about the accuracy.... it's of little relevance anyways.
The part that makes no sense is tearing down the old kingdom hall and building a smaller one. What's the point of that. Just stay in the same old building and save the cost of tearing down and rebuilding.
Agree, 330 is too small, but over 3,000 is too high. My bet is somewhere between 1K and 2K.
