the wife got back from the convention, and mentioned one point from the co talk.. he gave the statistic that on average, there are about 780 people baptized every day in the world!
everyone was amazed.. i broke it to her that there used to be a lot more.
i recall giving a talk and at that time there were around 1200/day.
780 people a day out of 8 Billion+ people ? And 8 Million J.W`s.? who lets say average 10 hrs. a month ,that`s 80 Million hours a month witnessing/preaching.
It doesn`t sound like a good investment to me.
And what they don`t say is what % of those baptized are family members and what % are cold converts from the public.
My bet is the majority of those baptized are family members ,children and teens.

Now we should move on from this topic as there’s are numerous other omissions and hypocrisies going on than the UN saga. I mentioned some and love to hear learn of more
Thank you NeedToKnow.
I think this post did get bogged down a bit feeding the troll ,however it did serve its purpose in exposing him and his/her love of the Cult and its hypocricy.
we all know the big movie villains get a lot of credit and appear in multiple movies - the shark in jaws, darth vader, and before them dracula, wolfman, frankenstein's monster, etc.. but there must be plenty of villains that get forgotten.. i thought clarence boddicker (played by kurtwood smith) was fantastic in robocop (1987) - a real psychopath.. another character who springs to mind is vilos cohaagen (ronny cox) in total recall (1990), i thought he was very good too.. obviously these and other movie villains do get some critical acclaim but they don't get their own franchise and they rarely get universal praise.. maybe 'unsung movie villains' is the wrong phrase but hopefully you get what i'm trying to say!

I give up
it was shocking.. all these years later, i found myself crying for the dead for the first time..
My son rang me up about 11pm that night and said turn on your TV ,I said which channel he said it doesn`t matter just turn on your TV.
I looked and was in shock.
I rang my 2nd son and told him ,he worked at that time for an "Elder" brother and went in a bit late the next morning and was questioned why he was late and all he said was "the Twin Towers" and apparently that was not a valid excuse
does anyone else see the similarities between the wizard of oz and the gb?.
it's kind of like when the curtain is removed and you find out it's all smoke and mirrors.

Let`s not forget George Orwell`s book "1984" or even StarTreks The Borg .Movie.
one i was thinking of is if a gay jw fell in love with a gay mormon and both got shunned at the same time each in there respective religions 'cough' cults.
both with no more family and no friends.
both with deep conscience issues ripping at the very fabric of their love.
How about a movie about a couple who denied their child a blood transfusion many years ago and now having woken up to TTATT go about suing the religion because Blood fractions were not an option back then which would /could have saved their child`s life.
A similar scenario could be about Vaccinations /organ Transplants that the J.W. religion / G.B. were dead set against in their very own publications which they can`t deny truthfully.
not only does the organization confiscate the hall the congregation owns.
but then the former congregants are told to continue to pay for utilities and they are still responsible for upkeep and maintenance.
so they still have to cut the grass etc.
Too funny LMS

That may be true for normal people ,however J.W`s are not normal people .
I`ve lost count how many times I was fooled and the last time was 25 years ago and its still going on today .
SHEEEESSSSHHHH
