    Yay!! the US has been teetering on the brink of a million pubs for a long long time now. It takes a special effort to get it up above a mi. (part of the decrease for those months class)

    I don't pay any attention to their statistics. For all we know the numbers could be fudged, and probably are. I go by what I saw with my own eyes:

    1. Smaller congregations.
    2. Declining attendence even among active publishers™.
    3. Frequent restructuring of circuits. They always said it was due to expansion, but attendence at assemblies was down.
    4. Fewer baptisms at assemblies and conventions.
    5. Lower attendence at district conventions.
    6. Fewer "interested ones" coming to meetings.
    7. I rarely see JWs in service now™. I used to see them all the time.
    8. Even the number visiting Tim Hortons seems to be declining on Saturday mornings.

    The organization is dying a slow but certain death.

    These figures only prove that Jerhover is closing the door of the Ark. The angels are weeding out the unfaithful and slackers in his service. Any time now and the end will be upon us.......

    How artificial can they get?

    Resorting to "worldly" eays of fudging their statistics, eh? Anything to show an increase, no matter how small.
