2012 report analysis - growth of JWs according to local internet availability
by cedars inhi everyone.
i did a similar chart to the one below last year, but this year i thought i'd make it slightly more meaningful by giving the statistics across three years rather than just one.. hopefully it's fairly self explanatory.. i'm making the data i've used available in a separate pdf download for those who are interested.. .

Report 2012. How many "real" Biblestudies are they in Jehovah's Witnesses??
by Dold Agenda inbiblestudies in the report, is the numbers they show us correct?.
i've been thinking of this, and as i am from sweden i use my own country as an example.. to notice is that sweden is high penetrated of internet.
the young ones here is often really good in english.. and i suppose that hardly one third of the jw kids finaly get baptised.. at most positive.. .

What they consider a "biblestudy" really isnt one. The CO told us we dont have to only count formal studys. Any discussion about the bible that is progressing, is a bible study. You dont even have to use the bible or a teach book. You could just bug the crap out of your co workers and count it as a study. Jehover works in mysterious ways to advance his kingdom message

tea scented? excuse me sir, do you smell tea or is just me? No sir, Its me that smells like tea!
I got a new wallet, a tiny change purse with money, scarf and gloves set from maCYS, $200, coffee mug filled with chocolate, and more but I cant remember what.
Heres something funny. We have these gifts stashed in my car, but we have to secretly bring them in. Otherwise my mother in law will call me pagan and get me df'd.

When there is a disaster in the JW community, I plan to go to their doors and help comfort them. Not with what, maybe some apostate lit or take the bible and tell them their loved one will be in heaven. And when they disagree, feign ignorance like they do.

An interesting YouTube experiment, JWs straying onto an "apostate" channel
by cedars insome time ago i uploaded a video to youtube that was a medley of different young ones singing "listen obey and be blessed.
" as you can imagine, it's rather creepy.. here it is.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ou802omcnvq.
my intention in making the video was twofold.

Im sure there is, so if it is obvious to those not a witness, why hasnt the government stepped in to help people like the Russian government. Maybe they dont perceive them as a threat like the Russians do. In the USA, we enjoy freedoms that alot of people in other countrys dont. Dubs seem to take that for granted. They forget if it wasnt for "wordly" people and wars (rev. war, civil war) There would be no Watch Tower Society, AT ALL! They want the same freedoms that everyone has, but without the sacrifice or the devotion. Dubs dont want to earn things, they want it handed to them, they want to their rights respected. But on the other hand, the society doesnt want them to exercise their personal rights. There have been numerous parts lately about how because things may be legal, it doesnt mean it is right. Is the government informed on these teachings. Oh but wait, theres a loophole.. "its a conscience decision" Which translates into "We cant take away your personal rights, but we can guilt you into freely giving them up"
Ok so sorry for the rant. These topic of rights is a huge hang-up for me. I consider myself a humanatarian. It really bothers me that they bow down in submission to this society when our ancestors fought so hard to give us something they never had... Libertys and Freedom

The Best of Both Worlds
by donny inno, i am not quoting the title of van halens greatest hits cd.. it is a statement of how successful the society has been in molding their "faithful and discreet slave" concept of total trustworthiness.. on one hand they deny that the faithful and discreet slave are infallible when it comes to revealing the words and commandments of god.
they have no position of "ex cathedra" as the pope claims to possess.
therefore they can "sometimes" be overzealous or have a misunderstanding on a matter.. however on the other hand they claim that these occasional missteps are very few and far between therefore we should award them the honor of trusting them to be the sole channel of gods communiques.. this came to mind because of a jw that i work with made this comment.

Isnt it funny how the turn whatever attention they can onto themselves when a horrible tragedy occurs. I am curious on who in their right mind would think that their peddling their lit is a comforting thing? If they came to my door, knowing what I now know, and told me they came to comfort me, I would tell them that if they really wanted to comfort those "suffering" they need to be respectful and leave people alone. The Sandy Hook Masacre has shocked the whole world, but there are some larger issues at hand here. Gun control, mental illness... these people dont know jack shit about this, and these are the issues people WANT to talk about. How can we prevent this from happening again, they dont want to talk about how this was fortold in the bible, so you better become a jw otherwise you will die too. These people irratate me to no end with their self righteous arrogant presumptious attitudes. btw, I wonder if the pope of rome called to do a head count?
