The people who are leaving the organization via the internet are not the usual people who quit in the past.

There have always been those who have left because of a desire for sexual adventure, alcoholism, drugs. The zealous leader types usually left over power struggles ie. not getting a position they wanted.

Today, however, a large number of those leaving the organization seem to be those who have one thing in common. CURIOSITY.

You start losing those who have a healthy curiosity and you eventually lose it all. The Watchtower is experiencing a "brain drain". As an organization they've never been very heavy in the brain department. But they at least had enough brain power to carry the day. Now their best brains, people like Greg Stafford feel the need to defend their beliefs extra-organizationally.

Is it my imagination or has the activity at H20 increased quite a bit lately? As the Watchtower has forced the shutting down of other Witness gathering places it seems many have been drifting over here.

I expect the pressure to close H20 will increase.
