See if this makes sense to you guys. I am tired of hearing the Witnesses crow about the "growth" of the organization. Their figures reflect a growt about that ofthe Worlds populatiom, 3 to 5%
Informally I started thinking about every Witness I ever knew and what their own personal outcome was inregards the Witnesses. Most are no longer Witnesses. I have not yet completed my list, but I thought you guys might feel like participating in the excercise, I will publish the results on my blog, www.isnrblog.com
You need to think of all the baptized Witnesses you have known and where they are now. Include only those who you are certain of their present situation:
Number of Baptized Witnesses I have known ____
Number who died still Witnesses _____
Number who died as non Witnesses (DF'd Inactive)_____
Number still Witnesses, include reinstated____
Number who were disfellowshipped and not reinstated_____

If I am missing some stat here, let me know.
