Nevermind that she put secrets at risk (which people are in prison for) but she also destroyed evidence (which people are in prison for).
Well that's awful. Fortunately, HRC will not be handling classified material anymore.
But general Flynn will. Did you know he “inappropriately shared United States classified information with various foreign military officers and/or officials in Afghanistan.” according to an official report on the matter?

Plus, the complete absence of so many emails shows she is untrustworthy.
I don't get this statement. You are saying we can only trust a political candidate who publishes all his or her email communication?
That's not something I think ANY candidate has EVER done.
Plus, despite 3 months of huff and puffing I have yet to see any seriously troubling emails. Someone passing her questions isn't exactly watergate...
I have said it many times but I think there has been established an expectation of a double standard: If Hillary does not reveal all her emails communication we are supposed to faint. If Trump shit all over the minimal disclosure expected of all presidents (tax records) that's just how that is.

The BBC produces some of the best programming in the world. Of course the news has a bias - every news source does.
Is the bias in this case pro or anti-English?
I can understand why many would find that kind of bias upsetting, especially in a tax-financed news organization.
what other cut backs do you think will be coming or might be coming these next few years for the borg ?.
I am thinking an additional cut in the number of printed pages is on the cards. Perhaps merging awake/public WT or making one of them "online-only".

overall the numbers are better than last year (1.8% growth compared to 1.5% last year -- as i predicted ;-) ) with an increase in all major figures including 1300 more congregations (i assume this is not physical kingdom halls?).
berrygerry: There are a few issues with your table. Check out the Japan figures as an example.

SBF: I think you have me convinced on the number of congregations, but it is still a pity it does not accurately reflect how many physical kingdom halls there are as this is the really interesting number.

SBF: I agree with the DRC numbers being odd. I don't think you can have natural growth of 22% in such a large country so I am assuming it is some kind of migration event or a change in legal standings of the WTS.
Regarding "congregations", isn't it a problem that this number includes(?) language congregations and isn't counting the number of buildings?

Two interesting numbers:
During the 2016 service year, Jehovah’s Witnesses spent over $213 million in caring for special pioneers, missionaries, and circuit overseers in their field service assignments. Worldwide, a total of 19,818 ordained ministers staff the branch facilities
During the 2015 service year, Jehovah’s Witnesses spent over $236 million in caring for special pioneers, missionaries, and traveling overseers in their field service assignments. Worldwide, a total of 26,011 ordained ministers staff the branch facilities.

No surprise, but the growth seems to predominantly happen in Africa and South America, with a LOT of zero % growth in Europe and a slight contraction in the US/Canada. Even Mexico is only growing with 1%...
For instance, the largest growth happened in the republic of Congo with almost 38'000 publishers joining the borg in that country alone (Could this be due to migration?)
