  Good luck waiting for a vac. Seriously??

  And you have another alternative ?

  One thing to note is there more clinical institutions working on a vaccine for this virus more so than any other time in human history.

  Lets be optimistic on the matter.

  LDS statistics, by extension, may suggest that the JWs could be bigger with a more engaged membership.

  i was just watching this on you tube, about the growth of the lds church.

  i think these numbers may support a number of theories that have been discussed on here.

  (1) the jws are bigger as a religious organisation.. (2) jw membership is more engaged, as well as, more ethnically diverse.. (3) wt is been honest with its counting.

  It could be suggested that they may of done comparatively well.

  For the amount of literature and field work JWs do to lure in new members, you must be joking.

  Lies and corruption have done well for the WTS particularly 1914, 1975 but there was a eventful drop off after 1975.
  

  Can you name a religion that has a documented slow growth rate but proselytizes as much as the JWS do ?

  Wake up and smell the coffee Joe

  It may have to go this way until a vaccination is established and I think many government officials are starting to see that in spite of the possibility of there being a small number of occurring new cases.
  

  The option to reinstall restrictions is there if there is a dramatic outbreak again.

  Unfortunately I think countries are just going to have to get their economies restarted, which is also needed to build up taxes which many governments have been pouring out money to the disadvantaged .

  Its kind of catch 22, dammed if you do and dammed if you dont.

  Carefully and methodologically is way to do this with travel restrictions being the last on the list of things to be lifted.

  How Is The Governing Body Viewed Today By Jehovah’s Witnesses?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  are they revered like the pope is to catholics??

  back in the 1960s , fred franz and n.h knorr were the only men that counted.

  after franz died, the governing body became more of an idolized entity.

  Is the GB still viewed as almost infallible or have today’s Witnesses seen through the charade??

  Most see them as almost infallible, that's why they are faithfully loyal to them as they are .

  They see them live on video now so that builds up more glorifying praise than ever before.
  

  Call it a case of delusional idiots following corrupt delusional idiots.

  So you think JWS are attending more meeting services than Mormons therefore the JWS are equal in numbers to listed Mormons .

  I got a news flash for you Joe .. many JWS do not attend all the meetings every month.

  Sounds like you need to get a life or at least get way from religion all together for the sake of your sanity.

  It would a good assuming guess that since the GB men cant go out in service, they are spending more time swimming, boating and playing tennis at their Warwick Head Quarters.

  The fact is most religions have been going through a decline in the last 40, 50 years or going through a state of slow growth in active participants.
