Watchtower is always following in the footsteps of the Catholic Church for ideas. The below image is the 1970's logo for the Catholic Church's Archdiocesan Youth Commission.

Some more background information on Geoffrey Jackson
by Listener inborn in 1955 jacko was baptized at 13 years of age in 1968.his life story, printed in the august 2015 watchtower doesn't state the year in which he married, it's fairly general when talking about it.
hmmm, i wonder why?i've come across a recording of an interview with jacko at a hall dedication in another part of the us in 2009 which provides some further information.he married his first wife, jenny, in 1974 at the grand old age of 19. no wonder they didn't want to print it in the watchtower.unfortunately his first wife, jenny, was diagnosed with cancer in 1999.in 2003 jacko was sent a letter from the gb stating he was being transferred to hq and his wife would be given appropriate work.
he initially didn't know why they were being called to hq as he felt they were being very productive in their fijian paradise, he states that they brought 75 people into the truth.

Outside JW World They Barely Exist
by Farmer Jim1 inis anyone else staggered by the fact that outside of the organization most of the general public seem to know very little or nothing about jw’s?
when i was in i was led to believe that 99% of the worlds population had been giving sufficient warning, knew what it was all about and were stubbornly sticking to their immoral ways.
the reality seems to be that the entire jw universe is barely noticeable to the masses.

10 million people are born every month. It is mathematically impossible for JWs to preach to the entire world and simply keep up with the birth rate.

The Extremes of The Watchtower Bible and Tract Scoiety
by The_Seeker ini have been reading through the posts over the last few days and something occurred to me, an epiphany, if you will.
people don't leave the jw's, especially those raised in the religion, simply because it is easier for them to continue to believe a lie even when faced with the truth.
the ability to think critically is something that most jws lack, we all know this to be true, but i truly believe many of them are simply too lazy to try anything different.

There's a reason JWs refer to themselves as sheep. Sheep have an IQ less than the biblically unclean pig.

Radio Ministers explain Satan's actions
by days of future passed inas i was driving home last night, i happened onto a radio station that had two "ministers" answering questions from the listeners.. they were just as clever as the wt in twisting explanations.
i had to laugh as well as shake my head over the manipulation of the scriptures.
the last question was, why does satan attack god's holy city after he is let loose at the end of the 1,000 years.

JW Broadcasting: Russian Convention Travel Report w/Mark Sanderson
by pale.emperor inhttps://tv.jw.org/#en/mediaitems/latestvideos/pub-jwb_201709_12_video.
a few things about this video:.
it's very nice that they managed to host a convention for the russian brothers and sisters, and that they all got fed.

Narshole, that's what Sanderson is. "Jigsaw" ought to stick all seven gb members in a room with a silver sword and see which one jehovah saves.

"Deficit" at JW Assembly
by cookiemaster ini've recently been at an assembly here in romania and there was an announced they were running a 10,000 euro deficit and urging all attendees to donate more money besides the already 5k has was donated during that day.
i really don't understand these things.
it's their own assembly hall.

The Governing Body have discovered that in doing the math . . .
($7500 + $5000) x 35 assembly days ÷ (Watch Tower x lawsuits) = Deficit.
Perhaps Governing Body member M. Stephen Lett can explain Watchtower's financial situation in Watchtower simplified, i.e. out of both sides of his mouth.

Where have all the Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons Gone
Herald Sun newspaper
Victoria, AUSTRALIA
21 April 2017
"Where have all the Jehovahs Witnesses gone. They used to knock at our door every other weekend, then they stopped that and set up a stall in the carpark at the supermarket . . ."
http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/opinion/where-have-all-the-jehovahs-witness-and-mormons-gone/news-story/35adc0d46c1b3c1d7cafca6d69dbb900
--------
You know the door-to-door preaching of JWs is in decline when even the media and public notice it. Add to that the JWs are drastically reducing their Watchtower and Awake! magazine printing, conventions, meetings, books, branch offices, headquarters staff, printeries, assembly halls, kingdom halls, etc.
Ftn. The newspaper article mentions a Bunnings store. This is a hardware retail outlet identical to Home Depot.
