There is a serious lack of accountability evident in their discussions. No can can openly criticize poor business decions that have to be approved by the GB. If you’re an accountant for the Pennsylvania Corporstion, you won’t last long unless you’re a yes man.

Song: The Life Of A Pioneer
by pale.emperor init struck me today how the lyrics to kingdom song 81 "the life of a pioneer" sound almost like a slave song from a plantation or something.
what's also sad is, if you read, you'll notice that they sound not only like slaves, but slaves that are admittedly tired and worn out yet grateful to serve their governing body overseers master to prove their devotion to him.. very sad indeed..
at the start of the day, with the sun yet to rise,.

This looks like a more depressing version of the old song "From House to House" But the new song is especially for those "privileged" to be pioneers and urges them to stay close to their carts.

My impressions of the cart witnessing
by Sour Grapes ini have watched tons of youtube videos of our exjdub friends approaching and talking to the jdub manikins at their carts as they give a great witness to the world by sipping their hot lattes, updating their social media, chit chatting to each other, and the most important thing of getting their time in, counting their hours.. when the jw's see someone approach with a camera they do several things, they will turn their backs on the person, or look at the person with a frown and act like the person isn't even there.
the witlesses refuse to answer simple, clear, and precise questions.
when i was an elder i loved to get into discussions and debates with trinitarians, priest, clergymen and those who were born again.

I would think that they if they knew they had life saving truths and that they want to help people by teaching in public, they would welcome people who are asking questions and would be glad they are broadcasting the message. YouTube could offer them free advertizing, without the costs of JWTV.

I would be find if they established a program to better track their known pedophiles. But the only example detailed in the videos is that of an 85 year old faithful pioneer sister who would not be required to log in to enter her own data. They would have some one else do that for her. Of course they want to track her so they can make sure they inherit any wealth she might have. When they see her date of birth, they will want to make sure she has her personal copy of donation brochure.

Wakanda, it's interesting to see that published. That's not the kind of thing wt would publish. It's too truthful. I suspect far more halls than 20 were sold in the US last year. The video shown last week was called the "third progress report on LDC activities". But rather than being a balanced report it was mainly bragging.

Atlantis, I wish I could get the video, but I don't have access to the source and I lack the skills. I just watched it at the meeting.
Jp, the wt definition of an overcrowded auditorium is one that has 5,6 or more congregations assigned to it. So if a hall has four Spanish congregations and an English congregation, the four Spanish can be combined into three larger congregations, leaving only four congregations total, and then that hall is no longer considered overcrowded. But the effect is that seating is more crowded with larger congregations. The same number of people, maybe more, still use the kh.

This sounds like the video that was just shown at the CLAM this past week in the US to replace the April local needs talk.
In that video they showed that there had been 55 overcrowded K Halls with5 or more congregations in the Los Angeles area. This was greatly reduced by combining congregations, which means they eliminated each 4th congregation and sent the orphans to neighboring congregations. The video also said that 20 k holes were built by LDCs in the entire US in 2017.

Memorial Attendance ???
by Phizzy inhi all, anybody any anecdotal or actual idea of how attendance numbers went this year ?.
there are hints that it is well down, but is it ?

Here in my area of the US it was 128 in 2017 and 124 in 2018. The speaker was hoping that there would be more since it was on a Saturday night. He didn’t explain his logic.
He also said he thought this would be offset by the huge increases in Africa. For example, Zambia saw an increase from 700,000 in 2016 to 800,000 in 2017. That increase of 100,000 was greater than the increase for the entire world attendance of only 90,000. So all the other countries besides Zambia, if combined, saw a drop of about 10,000 in 2017. The GB might be praying that Zambia came through for them again in 2018.

I feel sad for the father who is being shunned and whose wife took their 10 kids on vacation to a cult compound thousands of miles away, where people consider them all fatherless boys, even if some of them are girls.

You have already proven your courage by taking that first big step. I hope you get the justice you deserve and that all the guilty parties get the punishment they deserve.
