however, i haven't found any evidence to support that belief.. have you?
if so please, show me the evidence that god exists, and i will believe along with you.. criteria:.
(1) you must specify which god you are talking about;.
Here's another done again by the Pew Research group that show 51% of scientists believe in God. So there's that.
This is from the LA Times. Shows the same that 51% belive in a higher power or some sort of God.

it is rather clear that the internet is to put it mildly, wrecking the world of the watchtower bible & tract society.
if not for foreign language i doubt there would be much growth at all.. digital trends and analytics are very real.
i live this analytics world i assure you to some degree you can take it to the bank.
in the u.s., three's company was not allowed.
it was explained to me that it was an immoral show because a man and women lived together and no one was married.
the sister who gave this observation was a family friend and we were newbies to the religion.. at least i somehow managed to watch the benny hill show undetected..

The growth of Islam pretty much can't be denied on any level. It is flat crushing Christianity. Now I don't know exactly what that means necessarily but those are the facts.
My only question would be why does Jehovah's spirit directed organization not enjoy the same growth. This is important due to how often the organization wields it as if to say see we're legit.
Apparently God likes Islam better than?
So this isn't about whether you believe in this faith or that, more about if touting growth as validity of backing then why is this happening?
As to the chart It is just a Trends chart. The thing about these things is they are for real in that MA types (mergers & acquisitions guys) use this sort of data religiously (pun intended) to detect whether there are growth possibilities in a given sector.
In various searches (the org post just on the main words "jehovah's witnesses") it is clear there is a decline among the masses when searching on this topic.
There just isn't the same interest as before. So searches like the above and "what do JW's believe" have all dropped off a bit.
However search terms/keywords related to JW's and child abuse have spiked.
The point to this exercises is that it isn't the end all be all but there is little doubt in my mind that the foothold has slipped due to the amount of information now reaching active witnesses, those studying or those interested.
Bottom line the Tower has buckets of money and they're streamlining. They have staying power from that respect but I can see a time where they're a shell of what they once were much like Scientology has become.
Just my .02 do what you will with it.

Add to the fact that Christianity isn't even enjoying the fastest growth among religions. Islam will soon overtake Christianity as a whole. Meaning JW growth really isn't in the equation.
So much for expansion and growth as makers of the true religion and God's support.

i'm sorry if i'm covering old ground here.
but is the nwt bible a credible translation of the scriptures?
i'm not asking if you believe in the bible or not.
In my waking experience this is something I've delved into quite heavily. That being the original texts from various Codexes and so on.
Certainly no scholar with years and years of study but after roughly 2 years of learning Koine Greek and substantial study I can say unequivocally that the NWT, grossly misrepresents the scriptures when the original text curiously doesn't fit the desired doctrine.
Take 2 Corinthians 5:20. In this text the phrase "substituting for Christ" is added with regards to ambassadors. There is zero basis for this however it is postured in such a way as if to further bolster authority. Or at least that's how I see it. To me that's simply incorrigible.
i have a family member that goes nuts with these little things.
i wouldn't be surprised if they have a drawer full of underwear stamped with the logo.. it is completely out of hand.
now i'm not nitpicking here but what is the difference between printing a cross/wearing a cross than wearing a jw.org pin, tie-tack or whatever other logo'd item?
hello everyone, this info below me is not mine it's from a user in reddit that posted it.
his user name is question_and_answer1 i was hoping he was in this forum too but i don't know if he is.
anyway the credit goes to him for researching this and it's really interesting what he found and i want everyone here to read, and it's proof of how fake the watchtower is and how disgusting the gb really is...it's sickening.
