    Ask any of them who will run the nuclear power plants safely to avoid meltdowns the day after the big A or who will run the hospitals that will treat injured or sick ones? What science will they use to sanitize the earth and prevent epidemics with billions of bodies rotting everywhere?

    In 1993, researchers published the result of a massive survey of trends within major religious groups. Barry A. Kosmin and Seymour P. Lachman conducted a National Survey of Religious Identification. The survey had a sample size of 113,000 people. Of the thirty religious groups included in the survey, Jehovah's Witnesses had the lowest percentage of their members graduate from college. (Kosmin BA, Lachman SP. "One Nation Under God," p. 258)

    The Kingdom Ministry (06/69, p. 3) said this: "In view of the short time left, a decision to pursue a career in this system of things is not only unwise but extremely dangerous . . . Many young brothers and sisters were offered scholarship or employment that promised fine pay. However, they turned them down and put spiritual interests first."

    Jehovah's Witnesses are the most educated people in the world? Are you for real?

    Ask a JW to compose a paragraph.

    I would never hire a JW proofreader.

    (I guess they don't really need to know how to write... only how to read and repeat what it says in the paragraph).
