Hans Rosling is an excellent speaker. I'm always envious of people who have this skill as I suck at presenting.
When I was in school, I was pretty good at math. I applied my skills to what the Jehovah's Witnesses were claiming... that they were preaching to all the inhabited Earth.
Now as a kid, we all have a pretty good BS Meter. This claim was setting mine off big time.
It is mathematically impossible for 7 million JWs to preach to over 7 billion people in the world. The math just doesn't add up. Coupled with the fact that JWs aren't in all countries and that some countries have been avoided by the Watchtower shows this isn't happening either.
Indigenous tribes of people continue to be discovered that were previously unknown. For generations these people have been born, lived their lives, and died without ever hearing 'the good news of God's Kingdom' from a JW. They've never heard of Jesus either.
To me, this just illustrates the ridiculous claims from religion.
Hans' stats do the same. Religions fear monger... they try to tell us things are bad so you better sign up with God/Jesus to be saved. And give us your money.
No. Sign up to do something constructive and positive for the world (like Taslima in the video).
