Birth Control to be banned?
by stuckinarut2 inok, so the title is just an idea the society / gb could adopt.. clearly there is very little growth from outsiders coming into the organization.
the only real growth is coming from children being born into the faith.. the broadcasts, and the stuff on the official website for children gives proof of the manipulative techniques the gb is using by way of propaganda on these born in young ones.. so, it is not a huge leap to suggest that if the society wants to maintain growth, then they have to encourage witness couples to keep popping out offspring!.
no birth control perhaps?

Trump. Why all the banter?
by punkofnice inthere is a lot of talk about the usa's new president, mr trump.
he seems to be like what they say about marmite, people either love him or hate him.
is there any middle ground?.

On your first question: He just seems to be plain stupid! I'm afraid how his policies will work out for the climate and international relationships. Just happy i'm not living in the States and have a good health insurance in my country.

Just curious!

by redpilltwice in23 days ago, zeb posted this familiar but ever intriguing thread regarding 1914, the mother of all topics.. put youir [sic] thinking caps on.zeb 23 days ago this was sent to me from doug shields blog.
for those who like stats and numbers may find this of interest.1914 – recognizing the ”the elephant in the room”.
the problem with the date ”1914 ad” lays with the two calendars that are involved – jewish and gregorian.

A Jewish year had 12 months of 30 days, however sometimes an 13th month (Ve-adar) was added to make up for the difference with the solar year. So in the end it was almost the same year as we have now.

If the RNWT is revised again...................
by The Searcher in..................then proverbs 3:5 could read thus: "trust in the governing body with all your heart, and do not rely on your own understanding.
" .
's have already reached this point!.

They already introduced the idea of a "governing body" in the outline of the Book of Acts (how clever!)

2017 Yearbook released
by bohm ini saw this on reddit:.
https://www.reddit.com/r/exjw/comments/5mlgsm/2017_yearbook_of_jehovahs_witnesses/.
overall the numbers are better than last year (1.8% growth compared to 1.5% last year -- as i predicted ;-) ) with an increase in all major figures including 1300 more congregations (i assume this is not physical kingdom halls?).

“I feel as if Jehovah were talking to me right in my room when I listen to members of the Governing Body and their helpers,” says Agatha, a circuit overseer’s wife in Ghana. “Without this tool, how could a poor girl like me in a small corner of the earth have such a great privilege? It has really brought us much closer to our dear brothers and sisters around the world.”
Wow, just wow!
Like slimboyfat said, they print it with a straight face.

If anybody tells you that the end is so close
by pepperheart inask them why the gb has spent millions of people hours buiding the new bethels in new york and london rather than them working door to door or on the trolleys.

I always remember them that the Biblestudents before 1914 were very sure about living in the last days. And that 1914 was supposed to be the end of the last days. If they allow me I mention the talk of brother Rutherford: "Millions now living will never die" (1920). Then I just smile.
