I would bet there are many.
In fact... that gives me a GREAT idea. There's this supervisor at work..............
i stayed home sick from work the other day and noticed a car group pull up to my neighbor's house.
she's a stay-at-home mom.
i decided it was time to retrieve something from my truck to see if i could recognize the visiting sisters.

it's not difficult to see the paradox.
jehovahs blessing for the fast release.
of the silver sword, the fast building of the jw broadcasting studio.
I was thinking about this yesterday when I read a post here about how it would take 20 man years to compile the documents requested by a San Diego Judge for a pedophile hearing. But then I remember how the very first JW.tv clip was boasting about how fast they remodeled an entire floor or wing of a building to get the studio put together - in just two weeks.
"That couldn't have happened without God's holy spirit. Just goes to show how fast things can happen when God wants it done."

UPDATE
I was walking out to the street to retrieve my mail and spotted my neighbor in the yard. We have a friendly enough rapport with each other so I just came right out and asked, "So... when are you getting baptized?"
She knew what I was talking about.
The look on her face was priceless. She rolled her eyes and became so animated: "HOW DO YOU MAKE THEM GO AWAY???" She told how she has asked them three times to stop coming over but they keep coming. I told her she made the mistake of accepting a piece of their literature. "Once you do that, you’re in the database. Remember that song Hotel California?"
Again... the look on her face was priceless.
I asked her to continue being respectful to them as she already told me she was. I explained how most of them are good people, just out doing what any good drone will do. But you have to put your foot down and be firm.

All that was a few days ago. My neighbor since found out and told me that it was a friend of hers that put the JWs up to calling on her as a joke. Friend of a friend works with a JW and gave them a lead

If only the Watchtower lawyers had explained to the judge that only the governing body is qualified to determine who is and who is not a predator.
Case dismissed.
I regret to inform I still have the same bad haircut I had when I exited.
And the suits and ties.
But no Watchtowers!
LOL You win a free Watchtower!
Guess what I'm dressing up as this year?

yup, sorry brothers.
the world is getting better, not worse.
While not trying to play the role of a JW here, even I can see through the irrelevance of those graphs.
The war deaths graph only goes back to 1945 while the poverty and life expectancy graphs go back to 1820 and 1541(early 1800's for some countries) respectively. Right off the top it looks like they're trying to paint a picture with graphs that unbalanced.
Better food production and distribution alone can account for much of the poverty and life expectancy improvements.
sexual exploitation and abuse of six young children leads to lawsuit in dallas county.
dallas, oct. 23, 2014 /news.gnom.es/ six young adults, from north texas, all sexually abused as children, filed suit today in dallas, texas state court against three north texas jehovahs witnesses congregations (dallas, plano, and greenville), the watchtower bible and tract society of new york, and an elder.. sexually abused when they were ages 4 through 14, the plaintiffs were children of members of the dallas, plano, and greenville jehovahs witnesses congregations.
the suit states that they were repeatedly sexually abused and molested by an elder and an unknown regional circuit overseer, and that they and their families were threatened with discipline and harm if they disclosed the abuse to anyone.
Good Lord, here we go again.
I was going to read the legal documents but with the comments that have already been made about them I probably don't have the stomach for it.
seriously, endured a torturous conversation with an active jdub yesterday.
and he was frothing at the mouth about how "muslims are doing the right thing with .
executing the....." he then went on to list everyone from drugdealers to thieves to fornicators.. he said "countries where this sort of thing is happening have got it right!
