  I agree that they would go into a great steep decline and lose many JW`s that have been serving them for years ,however they have millions if not billions of dollars from their sales of real estate that would tide them over for many years yet ,and they would gradually build it back up into a viable televangelistic religion that so many have done to this day and are thriving.

  Dont write the JW religion off just yet ,they can re-write their history yet again.Their lawyers have been tuned in to do this for many decades ,who else do you think is running this show ,the GB are just the figureheads now ,the show ponies ,puppets ,giving the impression its a religious organization.

  Jehovah Banned in Singapore

  by EverApostate in

  2. beliefs

  singapore is a tiny, beautiful and economically powerful country in se asia.

  all religions are allowed there except the jehaovah's witnesses and another christian denomination.

  jws are banned because they don’t serve the military and all singapore citizens are required to serve in the military for a while.. the jws are banned in singapore since 1972. .

  Jehovah`s Witnesses say they have preached in the entire earth which is a blatant lie.As you say they are banned in Singapore ,North Korea ,Saudi Arabia ,and are severely restricted if not banned outright in many other Muslim Countries and certainly cannot do any D2D preaching.I dont believe they have the freedom to go D2D in mainland China either which has a huge population ,nor Pakistan or Bangladesh .

  These countries must amount to about a third of the earths population at least ,so its a lie to say they have covered the earth with their witnessing.

  This man is an expert in defending cults ? and the WT/GB/JW`s hire him to defend them ?

  What does that say about Jehovah`s Witnesses ?

  2019 Annual Meeting: more F.O.G.

  by neat blue dog in

  after the new construction project is announced, anthony morris the turd gives a talk where he arrogantly tells the audience to 'get over it' and get to work.

  he says relaxing is fine and 'im not trying to put a guilt trip on you' but you all need to get busy.

  no graciousness at all for the endless volunteer labor they demand for whatever new projects they dream up.

  Yes I too would like a link to this talk to see / hear and judge for myself though I don`t doubt your both assesments of the talks.

  However it is good to see for oneself.

  " whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven " Matt.16:19 So JW`s critisize the Catholic Church for applying this scripture to themselves and then they go around and apply it to themselves ?

  Or have I misunderstood what you are implying ? waton ?

  The little one becomes a thousand. Isa.60;22

  I think the god of the Bible is referring to all of the Ex JW`s who are coming out of the woodwork now with all of these different ex Jw sites coming up and all of the people who are joining ,eveyday their are newbies joining .

  Its very encouraging and even exciting to see so many new ones.

  The Watchtower and Awake magazines are not the most read magzines in the world they are the most distributed / printable magazines in the world ,and thats a big difference .

  And in a lot of countries nowadays they are either free or on a contribution basis for obtaining one.Otherwise they would be taxed by the governments.

  8.5 Million volunteers distributing these magazines all around the world its not surprising they are the most distributed but even thats debatable because many JW`s dont even place the magazines they have and end up putting them in the recyclable bin.

  It is probably more accurate to say they are the most printable magazines by a publishing house today.

  Many of these mags are just left in places with a high traffic of pedestrians with the hope they will be picked up and read. Many are just left at houses where people are not at home hoping they will be read.

  So this article stating the WT and Awake are the most read magazines are wrong and the journalists obviousl;y havent done their homework to make such a statement .

  I noticed that was in the WT in 1963 ,so thats probably out of date now and nu-lite has been shining on them since then .

  I`m thinking of people who identify themselves as JW`s who excel in sports or are celebritys of one kind or another , who can make a considerable size donation more than the average R&F JW .

  We have one or two in our neck of the woods.

  And the GB /WT keep their mouths shut about counselling these guys ..... I wonder why ?
