Remarkable Statistic - Bible Studies compared to Baptisms
by jwfacts ini am surprised i have not noticed this before, particularly since this is one of the most important statistics, and so have just added the new graphs to watchtower publisher statistics.. the number of bible studies generally trends roughly with the number of publishers on a one to one basis.
however, the number of baptisms has not been rising.
this has resulted in a rapidly falling conversion rate.

That's very interesting. Pity we can't differentiate between real studies and family studies, conversion stats then will be ridiculous.

I saw my MIL last night, she said I'd have enjoyed the meeting as the whole meeting was about the internet. I said 'oh really, i thought the internet was evil' She kept repeating jw.org as if they had to remember the address for fear of stumbling across anything else. I asked if she found it useful, she said she doesnt know how she'll use it, she doesn't have a PC, it took me weeks to show her how to use a cordless phone!

Good Reasons To Hate Every Weak And Ex-Jehovah Witness.
by AuntConnie in1. my husband's time is finite, it's wasted on spouses arguing over money, sex or family mattters with stupid home visits.. .
i hate people's constant open hand for money, it's the weak individuals asking others to pull their weight.
my family worked extra hours instead of begging the strong members for district assembly money, cat food for seven cats or tiny little rag-a-muffins weiner dogs.. .

Welcome AC
It seems to me you have been living by the rules to create yourself a lifestyle, and you have become dissillusioned by it. That is understandable, in the cult you are into, you will only find dissappointment.
I am concerned that you are heading for a breakdown, can i suggest you take a vacation from your JW activities for a couple of weeks and try to see life from a different perspective. I'd also recommend seeing your mum, don't live with regret over not seeing her before it is too late.
The expression, 'cannot see the woods for the trees' comes to mind as I read your posts.
To fellow 'weak and exjws' - remember we can see things a lot more clearly than 'good jws' who have been indoctrinated.

There was a member of the GB who regularly visited friends in Scotland but was always too busy travelling off to somewhere else in the world to visit the KDH
I do remember a few years ago Scotland having a zone visit which turned out to be a member of the GBin England doing a live broadcast to Scotland, the shed used in Edinburgh was not big enough as loads more turned up than were invited, I stood at the back to give my chair to an older person, glad I did as it was a rubbish mediocre talk and i ended up people watching instead

Off topic, sorry, but I couldn't help notice the footnote in Atlantis' scanned image, bringing in the money aspect. Subliminal messaging me thinks

In my experience the more you try the less likely he'll progress! Don't worry, he'll do it in his own time. My youngest was the same, then one day it all changed, went to the bathroom and that was it.
