That blog posting reminds me of thread we had on here not too long ago.
Growth in wealthier countries has definitely slowed down.
In the poorer countries where people are joining at the highest rates, they can't afford to donate as much.
So it makes sense for Jehovah to tell The Slave to print less literature and close branches etc.

The trend seems to be in favor of continuing decline in countries with more internet penetration (not coincidentally, the wealthier ones).
So should I be as bold as to say that the Watchtower's heyday is long gone?
Mene, mene, tekel, upharsin
