- DannyHaszard, on 02/16/2008, -2/+1The Watchtower has recently inflated their membership count to include inactive members (members who don't go door to door).
There actually are now twice as many former Jehovah's Witnesses as there are active ones with thousands leaving every month.
Baptisms at assemblies is often mostly family member children who have grown up JW. Jehovah's Witnesses are LOSING members and are on the decline.Japan has lost over 600 congregations.
Witnesses are shrinking in number in many Western countries as of the last few years, as the Internet facilitates the spread of information (much of it critical of the Witnesses). Jehovah's Witnesses members are cautioned against creating JW-related websites, largely to prevent their members from discovering the history and dirty laundry of this organization on other websites. There are literally hundreds of former members pages in many languages
Jehovah's Witnesses beliefs: A) They are at your door to recruit you for enslavement to their watchtower corporation,they will say that "we are just here to share a message from the Bible" this is deception right off. B) The 'message' is their false Gospel that Jesus had his second coming in 1914. C) Their anti-blood transfusion ban has killed hundreds if not thousands D) once they recruit you they will "love bomb" you in cult fashion to also recruit your family & friends or cut them off.
There are many more dangers,Jehovah's Witnesses got a bad rap for good and valid reasons. 99% of the world has rejected the teachings of the Watchtower Jehovah's Witnesses, the darker truth is they are a destructive and oppressive organization.
-- Danny Haszard Jehovah's Witness X 33 years http://www.freeminds.org - lulu75, on 02/20/2008, -2/+1I believe that all things happen for a reason...I was a JW for 29yrs and left 2 yrs. ago never to return, but that is another story. I still
keep in touch with some life long friends that are inactive or disfellowshipped or some that are still in the cult and talk to me. I received this email last night about the org. being the fastest growing faith and knew right away that it was a bunch of lies that they made up as they do to keep members in the cult. I say cult because that is what it is. They destroy families and lives. More people
should start speaking out so that the news media or Oprah do a show about this cult. Something that will make the whole world see.
