Demographics within WTS
by Dune ini asked an elder when i was younger if the society had a census on who was in the organization.
things such as race, gender, age and wealth (kind of hard to find for the last) he told me no.
he said that the only thing that the only thing that was reported to brooklyn was who was baptized and if someone was disfellowshipped.. do you think theres a reason they dont tell us the women to men ratio or am i just looking to deep into this?
