10 Graphs that show that the Watchtower is in trouble in Mexico
by ILoveTTATT2 inmexico is by far the country where the witnesses have had the most success in the entire world.
almost any statistic except the total amount of witnesses shows that mexico is where the witnesses have had the wildest success in the world.proportional to population, the witnesses in mexico are double, or nearly triple, what they are in the us or brazil.but there is "trouble in paradise".
if mexico falls, pretty much the whole watchtower falls.which is why it is so important to have jwfacts translated to spanish.i made an analysis and things are looking bad in mexico... if trends continue, mexico will become just like the 1st-world countries.here is the first graph:maximum publisher % increase:.

Global Assistance Arrangement
Globally there are 8,340,982 active publishers within the JW religion at the last count.
At the mandatory Watchtower published donation amount of US$14 per active publisher the GAA could raise cash reserves of
US$116,773,748 (approx. $117 million) per year or US$977 per congregation per year.

Prayers ,are they answered ? or is it just self delusion ?
by smiddy3 inafter 33 years as a jw and leaving 25 years ago i think prayer can be summed up with the jews praying at the wailing wall.. all they are doing is talking to a brick wall ,and getting no feed back.
and they expect an answer to their prayers ?!.
christians /other beliefs might find that funny but they are no better off.. prayer is always a one way street you talk either vocally or mentally to god however you never get the same back .. if god " so loved the world that he doesnt want any to be destroyed but have everlasting life " then whats the problem with him audibly answering his servants prayers ?

That site was quite valuable as a teaching aid for those involved in the ARC. The site was used as an example of how supporters and defenders of the Watchtower misunderstand what the JWs actually believe and teach, and often resort to fallacies to defend their faith.
The following is an example of the 'straw man' fallacy often found in typical JW QandA or FAQ. Note the following question and the subject (i.e. JWs) of the question. Note the first paragraph introduces the subject (i.e. JWs) and the allegations made. Note the second paragraph engages in a 'straw man' fallacy by giving an answer that addresses "the Watchtower Society" and not the subject (i.e. JWs).
Have Jehovah’s Witnesses Ever Claimed to be INSPIRED Prophets?
The accusation that Jehovah’s Witnesses have claimed to be inspired prophets or have tried to foretell the future is absolutely false.
The flat-out truth is that the Watchtower Society has NEVER claimed to be inspired, infallible, or to be foretelling the future as Prophets. -

Australia: Caught in Web of Evil (murder of Philip Quayle)
by darkspilver in"caught in web of evil" is the headline spashed over the front page of today's copy of the cairns post newspaper (thursday, september 7, 2017) in queensland, australia.
the online version appears to be the same, apart from the headlineunlikely backgrounds of pair revealed after being sentenced for their part in cairns murder.
the cairns post / herald sun, wednesday, september 6, 2017. she was a top student as a child, he finished as school dux and was studying medicine at university.. how samantha french and alexander hansen became caught up in one of the most chilling recent murders in cairns defies belief.. but yesterday they faced court, charged with their parts in helping jake livingstone cover his tracks after he beat chef philip quayle to death in a cruel, random attack on spence st.. the cairns district court heard how, in the hours after they watched 21-year-old livingstone attack the 27-year-old hospitality worker in february 2015, the trio drove around the city, dumping and burning clothes in white rock, retrieving evidence from a cbd bin and disposing of it in mangroves near the cairns airport.. later that night the horror of what unfolded became too much for french.

Are JWs the most corporate religion?
by cookiemaster ini find it pretty shocking how corporate the jw religion is.
i never saw it this way when i was in but now that i look at it from a different perspective, it seems quite clear.
much of the terminology used by jws is corporate inspired.

The ARC found that in Australia there was approx. one Watchtower controlled corporation / legal entity / charity per every 90 JWs. Over 700 in total.

Today's Text - Justifying The Increase Of Annointed Ones!
by Divergent inthursday, august 31. jehovah knows those who belong to him.—2 tim.
2:19.. in recent years, we have seen an increase in the number of those partaking at the memorial of christ’s death.
that trend contrasts with the decrease in the number of partakers that we saw for many decades.

"Some [Jehovah's Witnesses] have mental or emotional problems that lead them to believe that they will rule with Christ in heaven."
I can think of seven JWs that fit this description.
