  NYC cart people

  i recently started working on a project in manhattan- in a very nice neighborhood.

  just want to share a few observations on the cart witnesses in this area.. this is an area flush with dinero.

  so every respectable non profit is out there hustling for donations.

  Kids continue to leave in droves - so what is the organization's grand plan? This

  jws have one of the worst, if not the worst, retention rates among their kids.

  i've seen numbers from 65% to 88% who leave, never to return.. you'd think this would be a priority amongst the leadership, right?

  where do tomorrow's leaders come from, if the vast majority of kids leave the organization?

  jwleaks, Thanks for the quote: "Good. I hate going to the meetings. Does this mean I can join the..."

  Great story. You could end this sentence with practically anything. However the story ends it is a happy ending.

  There are in a difficult situation. I agree with your assessment that the young ones are leaving. However, they have angered many older ones with their move to iPads and other high tech forms of communication.

  Kevinly Class Activism - Brilliant!

  this is great.

  i'd love to see this at brighton in a couple of weeks.... "i'm of the kevinly class" or "praise kevin" would be a great way of letting any activist know there are those awake that know what they are doing.

  Everything is done for a reason. I cannot believe that the Watchtower would develop a video like this without an awareness of how it will be received.

  This is an extension of their very hard-line approach to everything - the same hard line approach that excluded Kevin from the bunker. The watchtower is not interested in new recruits. They are interested in solidifying their role with the extremely faithful.

  well i just got back from 3 days in hell, and geez was this convention strange or what?

  im sure someone's probably made a topic about this already but i can't believe that there weren't any new releases besides the movies.

  has that ever happened before?

  Were there quite conversations about how this was probably our last convention? That used to be the topic after every convention I ever attended.

  I can see these bunker videos really stirring up the emotions of those let that 100% stable. Which, defines most of the R&F.

  They are clearly designing these with an end goal - which is to sell. I am not sure that they will be successful in this strategy, but at least it is a strategy.
