The JTrottigy posting on here was not the same Trot from JWTalk. He was impersonating him to troll the board.

What happened to jtrottigy?
by Freedom rocks injust curious if he's still lurking and making idle threats.
you can't find all of us who are on jwtalk!
hopefully what you've read on this site has made you start to think and see the truth about the organisation though that "it's not the truth!

District Assemblies now being held at Circuit Assembly locations?
by ShirleyW ini haven't been to a kh in decades, so i get the google alerts for jws and i got one featuring a local news channel in brooklyn covering the assembly being held in flatbush, brooklyn.
i'm sure that venue is where the circuit assemblies are usually held, keeping in mind it's summer and that's when the district assemblies are being held.
why are they acting like they're so strapped for cash and now holding district assemblies in circuit assemblies locations ?.

My citing the concerns I saw while in was only to show that one's perception on whether the level of apathy is increasing/decreasing depends on where one looks.
Also, apathy is not limited to "PIMO" individuals, as your own "not reaching out" experience reveals.

I remember when i was in and serving as elder a few years back, one of the biggest concerns I would hear discussed by top brass was regarding the ever shrinking pool of young brothers reaching out for assignments. From my conversations with others in similar positions and in areas far from mine, it became apparent that such concern was not just limited to my locale.

The 8+ million figure refers to active publishers, including non-baptised ones.

Only time will tell. I agree that it is foolish to expect that one event would single handedly bring down the religion.
Who's to say though, that those events you mentioned, collectively, haven't had an effect in maintaining the very downward trend we've been talking about?
Also, your perception of level of apathy, or lack thereof, can be contrasted by many that would beg to differ.

BTW, the 8.5 million figure refers not only to baptized JWs, but to unbaptized publishers as well. -

Indeed. Be that as it may, growth trends have been trending down. Unless the trend reverses, the org is set for eventual stagnation and perhaps contraction. It is already happening in a few countries.

Indeed the religion is still technically growing. When analyzing the data though, it is important to analyze trends as well as the raw figures. It helps paint a picture of what the future might hold.
The growth levels overall have been trending down for decades. Of particular interest is the slow to non-existent growth in developed countries that were once flourishing, such as Japan, and other European countries.

I kThe article was obviously wrong. The religion declined for only a few years after 1975 after which a renewed focus on the "1914 generation not passing" helped many forget about the '75 fiasco.
Having said that, it seems the glory days of the religion growing at 4, 5 and even 6% are over. Now a days 1 to 2% is the norm.

by Ray Frankz inhi guys, long time without paying a visit to this site.
today i returned to check a 'gossip' that is running around in brazilian exjw forums.. they are stating that is almost certain they will make a big change in their doctrine maybe this year yet in the annual meeting.
they say people in warwick were commenting on this.

I'm sure there is added pressure for the GB to revise the 144k doctrine in light of the fact that the number of partakers has increased dramatically in the last few years.
I mean, they can only milk the "mental and emotional problems" excuse for so long.
