2013 Publisher Statistics now available from 2014 Yearbook.

by jwfacts in

the 2014 yearbook is out, and i have scanned the publisher figures into a more readable format at 2013 service year report.

i have updated some of the graphs at http://www.jwfacts.com/watchtower/statistics.php and will do the rest tonight.

there are no real surprises, with very similar results as during the last couple of years.

...'Similarly for why conversions are taking so many hours is that the preaching work is such a joke now, with people sitting in a park or mall for a few hours next to a literature stand ignoring everyone.'

This is part of what makes me so frustrated. Its like they live in the now! Yet they preach about stuff written thousands of years ago and say its so relevant to now! They don't know the past carpetbagging technics. I walk past a stall ignored by the believers behind it every thursday of the week!

Thank you JWFacts for the information. It's great to have feelings backed up with stat's that reassures one's mind set is in the right place.

it doesn't allow anyone to register.

are they to scared of the feedback from those who know ' the truth about the truth'.

it seems to me they should not even have a contact us function (especially if your main form of contact is email, which is the norm for 2013) who designed this thing................. are the elders and the privileged jw's sent their logon details... i would love to know the secret squirrel shite.

Has anyone got any answers on 'why this is so'

Is anyone here registered and if so what kind of information do they send you?

Dangerous Persuasions

by sherrie11 in

saw an episode of this series based on a ex member of the cult scientology.

it was on the crime channel (ci) on pay tv known as foxtel here in australia.. i feel that this show could be a way to expose the shunning and mind control tactics of the wtbs.

has anyone seen this series ?.

What blew my mind was the frankness of the woman who was involved in this cult. The unshackled way she expressed in naming the cult and their practices..... lets face it scientology is pretty well known.

Anyone willing to go there???

What would you expose????

A mole within the FDS!

by braincleaned in

it has been now verified that there was a traitor within the gb!.

an insider had the courage and audacity to verify this, taking the risk of being kicked out of bethel, with a cross carved on his forehead.. it became apparent that all the men of the gb where naturally bald, even when some tried to hide it with a clever and stylistic comb-over.

but there was some suspicion that pierce and losch were not true bald men.

Use Of Electronic Tablets At Meetings

by Brother Mike in

i do.. what does the soceity actually say about them?

(i know some the members of the gb use them) .

what do you think about using them at meetings?

sherrie11

From what I have seen from stallholders on the streets in NSW Australia they always have tablets or iphones with them and always looking at them as opposed to the person passing by that may be looking for ' truth'

head down and mobile in hand they look up because a bystander interrupted them. " why are you looking at your fone all the time" they exclaim' the app helped an angel find someone looking for truuf.. (someone looking for truth.)

and in the meantime they are counting false hours.

There is a differance between reality and spirituality, its up to you 'stand for pure worship'

Why are you here if not looking for answers to your own questions.

What level of IQ does one have, to beleive " TRUTH " changes. ? or old "Light " old truths " New Light " new truths " ?

by smiddy in

okay, i never went to university , or had a college education, though i`m damn sure that "truth" is "truth" and it never changes.. if you" beleived "something was the truth in the past and now found out it was not correct , you cant say it was an" old " truth ,it must have been wrong/false reasoning in the first place......so it was never really the truth.. sure you can be aware of a "new" truth something you never knew beforehand , though whether you knew it or not ,it has always been a truth.

example:the earth was the centre of the universe ,beleived as a truth.........that beleif was false , it was not an old truth.. if their was something you beleived before as true and you now find it wasnt true , then it was false / untrue .. their is no such thing as an "old truth " and a "new truth" that is apparently accepted by jehovahs witnesses .. if jehovahs witnesses were as honest as they profess , then they would acknowledge when they make adjustments to their beleifs/doctrines that they were wrong in their initial understanding of said scriptures instead of passing it off as old truths or new light.. i was a witness for 33 years before it became obvious something was just not right with this religion and it took another 10-12 years before i found this site , that set me free.

so i ask , is it an iq level ?

sherrie11

Considering the time the St James' version of the bible came out it was only those rich enough to learn to read and decipher latin or greek or german....whatever language it came in at that time. (not ordinary mens language)

and just as we do today copy and paste without thinking.... so do our earlier ancestors , just copying and not thinking. no intelligence required.

there is nothing new under the sun blah blah etc.....

Apognophos

I am privately hoping this isnt his wife, look at him....

Where could we search to find out if it is his actual wife instead of an anonymous woman photobombing herself into his pic

the pic came from a reliable source(as they say in main street media)

A Top Mormon Leader says mistakes were made....

i wonder when the gb will do this.....

David Splaine mentioned briefly in regard to earlier translations in the historic AGM presentation

"The original NWT is a masterful, wonderful translation. We should use it for reference. For our meetings, service and study, we should use the revised."

"The brothers who used the wrong application of these scriptures did not get their ideas out of thin air. Sometimes even in our publications we've made mistakes. The new revision will help everyone, even those who prepare spiritual food."

he slipped that in very quitely
