    Well I'll be darned. Serves 'em right. Man does that put a smile on my face.'

    Here is the link to the Pew statistics: http://religions.pewforum.org/reports/

    Go to the 2nd to last item in the bulleted list at the end.

    I am grinning from ear to ear.

    Yeah, there's more of us (exJWs) than there are of them !

    the witnesses that are still asleep and have not woken up have an i.q. of 80. this includes my wife, who at things other than the witchcraft borg is pretty smart.

    she suffers from congnitive dissonance, but doesn't realize it.

    AGHHHHHHHHHHHH I hate this freaking cult of a religion. the worst mistake i have ever made in my life was getting involved.

    I now see that others have posted this before. But it has been a while so this may surprise a few people.

    Yeah, old news.

    Still nice to be reminded, though.

    Yes I remember when I first researched this, I found it very interesting.

    Helped explain why we seem to focus so much on d2d work but let "weak" ones just slip away into oblivion.

    In fact this info helped me to see that it wasn't me who "failed" them, but it was them who failed me.

    sparrow, you failed yourself. You had the opportunity to establish a person relationship with Jehovah, using the JW's to do it, and you failed.

    @watcher- thanks for your concern, but if I wanted a relationship with God I don't need the JWs as an intermediary. That's what Jesus is supposedly for.

    Very interesting! Wonder if this'll be in the next Kingdom Ministry.
