Just one sentence (OK, one set of sentences, then), please remember the US is not the world. For those of us not having the good fortune to live in the US, the organizational changes, GB resigning, silentlambs, companies, blood reform, new names, who knows what - has no impact on the daily life as Witnesses at all. Itis business as usual. The elders are there, the congregations, the COs, the DOs, the branch, the branch committee - nothing has changed, except that on page 2 of the Watchtower it says Larson in stead of Henschel, but the typing is so small it is hard to see.
US make up some 1 / 6 of the world's Witnesses - not the vast majority. 1 % up or down in Canada or in the US - who cares? But if you begin getting 3-4-5 % down in Mexico, Brasil, Nigeria, Philippines, Poland, Cuba, Russia, Ukraina - then it's a noticeable thing.
