I definitely think the witnesses are fudging their numbers. Figures don’t lie, but liars figure. They would have zero growth in the US, without baptizing children.

Dip, if they are still counting members as everyone who is not DF’d or DA’d as a member, they are still counting me. I haven’t attended a meeting in nearly 40 years, and haven’t identified as a dub in as many years. That’s ridiculous to count me. If that’s what they are doing, their numbers are fake.

I would have been a teacher or a lawyer. Problem was, you had to go to college, and you know how that is. Stupid cult!

It’s hard to believe that there are any Jehovah’s Witnesses left in Australia. Between the vocal apostates at conventions, programs like this one, and the Royal Commission. Thank you for sharing this, Vanderhoven7!

Watchtower Disparages the Bible
by Vanderhoven7 ini'm looking for wts quotations that contrast with ii timothy 3:15-16 whereby they downplay scripture.. here is one from way back..
"...people cannot see the divine plan in studying the bible by itself...if he then lays them [scripture studies] aside and ignores them and goes to the bible alone, though he has understood his bible for ten years, our experience shows that within two years he goes into darkness.
on the other hand, if he had merely read the scripture studies with their references, and had not read a page of the bible, as such, he would be in the light at the end of the two years, because he would have the light of the scriptures," (watchtower, sept. 15, 1910, p. 298).

Can’t give you the exact quote, but a 1981 WT, possibly December, said, “Come to Jehovah’s organization for salvation!”
