The numbers are bullshit so what if a couple of African countries are growing fast the rest of the world people are leaving in mass and with about 70% of the born ins leaving there’s no way they have any real growth. Oh and let’s not forget the 1000s of Kingdom Halls up for sale.

Generally Speaking Do You Support The Police?
by minimus ini know bad cops exist in many cities.
i know some cops who aren’t “bad” but do have an attitude.

No it’s been my experience there just crooks with the authority given to them by government to carry a gun and a badge. To many innocent people killed by cops including children to many people arrested detained and having their rights violated etc. to many people having their property and money stolen from them too.
The system is broken and needs to be fixed badly.

Who cares which translation of the Bible is more accurate it’s still full of contradictions, unfulfilled prophecies, mathematical and scientific errors not to mention it states the earth is flat in over 65 verses.

There’s a little cult church near my moms house that’s growing like gang busters. The jws on the other hand are selling off all their Kingdom Halls it’s funny.

Canadians and Europeans, what do you think of your national health care ?
by RubaDub inwe have been in a battle over health care for so long here in the us regarding public, private, gov't subsidized, obama care, medicare for all, and just about every permutation of the above.. we hear the horror stories here that people wait 20 years for a check-up (ok, bit of an exaggeration), but you get the point.
one side tells us that canadians flock across the border when they are sick and need to see a doctor.
the other side says that is simply not the case.. so tell us, if you live under one of the government systems would you replace it?

The Evolution Of The Watchtower Cult
by pale.emperor insince waking up from the cult i've been curious about where the cult is going and how will it end up?
will it fizzle out or become a little fringe "religion" like plymouth bretheren or the shakers?.
we've already seen the cult evolve from:.

They continue to evolve and change to be more and more a social thing. It’s amazing what one can do now gamble, tattoos etc.. They sealed to be stuck in their same doctrines but are moving to make it a feel good religion. This I think will keep many around but at the same time many are just leaving , I’m surprised at how many no longer go or do go but not very often.

I watched a YouTube interview with about 4 so called math geniuses that Also say it mathematically impossible to go from one species to another. Yet science has shown that it has happened . Look at the chicken that when scientist turned on a dormant gene it grew a tooth in side it’s beak. How is that possible if not for a species jump?

by AndersonsInfo inhttps://www.latimes.com/california/story/2019-10-20/california-child-sex-assault-lawsuits-new-law.
san diego — matt smyth’s secret was revealed in his senior year of high school with a knock on the front door of his family’s fallbrook, calif., home.. two plainclothes sheriff’s detectives were investigating reports that smyth’s former assistant scoutmaster — the one who’d driven kids to boy scout meetings, chaperoned camp-outs and hosted fishing outings on his bucolic property — had molested several boys.. to the shock of his parents, smyth shared that he’d been a victim, too.
but the bombshell stayed close to home for decades.

“You know how I know that they're finished out there? The carts.”
by Athanasius inthe watchtower's many legal problems and the jws' use of carts in their preaching work, reminded me of a scene and dialog from the film patton.. in a scene where patton is viewing a battle site the morning after, he says to an aide about the nazis: “you know how i know that they're finished out there?
in my dreams i saw the carts.
they kept buzzing around in my head and i couldn't figure out why.

The jws are so used to people giving them no mind that standing in front of a cart for hours will not persuade many to realize their wasting their time away. But yes it is true the religion is just a dead man walking and in away they know it since they use old publications on those carts.
People are leaving in mass and the growth ended when they finally had to change the “this generation will not pass away” BS.
Example I have friend that his wife got dfd for adultery, he stopped after the friends weren’t so friendly when he was missing a lot of meetings do to issues with his wife and of course I helped to wake him up. All his kids in their 30-40s of age had already stopped going years before all but two younger ones.
Well after he woke up both of them stopped and one of them is married and the spouse stopped too. My friends siblings he has three and two have stopped not because they are awake but just got sick of going and being told to live a pathetic life.
So to recap my friend raised 6 kids in the cult and their all out. He’s out his exwife is dfd and isn’t going back and two out of three of his siblings are inactive. Only one sibling and his mother are pimi his dad recently died. That’s a lot of people that were once counted as being active publishers some baptized that no longer go, and this is going on all over the world.
