My mind is crystal clear on what I see. But Jesus said MOST would not. Are you in that group?

I am positive and optimistic about the state of the world. You don't see me quoting political talk radio and YouTube clips in order to communicate my world view.

Out of those millions, how many hundreds of people - in your 10 years as JW - have you personally converted and drawn into your organisation and helped to overcome problems such as the ones you often mention like drug addictions, prostitution and ethnic strife?

Well maybe you should be listening. It's your world speaking, not mine.

Lol. I'm only 10? Try 56 and have been a JW since I was 6. And what I have done in the teaching work is not really any of your concern. Are you my spiritual judge now too?

robbie alluded to "all the millions of people we have helped overcome all kinds of problems". Out of these "millions of people", how many hundreds or (perhaps?) thousands have you converted during your 40 years?

There is perhaps no one on this forum who sets himself up as a "spiritual judge" as ostentatiously as you do, galveston75. You make claims about the morality of your actions and you poor scorn on the moral choices of others. I am questioning your claims that your "Christian neutrality" is morally superior to the actions and principles of those who differ from you. Others will "judge" the validity of what you say.

I only comment on ones answers. I am no judge of any human and their relationship with God.

Others will be the judge of whether this claim of yours matches your posting record.

In 40 years, have you converted two hundred people? One hundred people? Fifty? Less than fifty? robbie has made a claim about "millions of people" - and the claim is apparently made in order to suggest it's a superior approach to problems than political approaches - so what has been your contribution to the "millions of people" thing robbie mentioned? It's a fair question.

I guess robbie must be the only one converting anyone to the JWs if his count alone is in the millions. Or perhaps I misunderstand.
