I think there are way too many more opposers than in the 70's to ignore. For example, since I left I have helped quite a few people who were studying to tell their bible teacher to take a hike. If we all help people out who are studying no one will get baptized. the "big list" from Prominent Bethelite helped me with each of these. It was pretty simple to convince these ones that they were dealing with a false prophet just by showing them this list which was not available in the 70's.
Even if there is growth in other countries, these kingdom halls in the U.S. will have to be sold off when their "waters dry up." And who's going to finance the Society when Canada, Europe and U.S. drop out?
I dont think they'll be around another 10 years. And if they are, 2014 is right around the corner to set them up for another disappointment.
That's my two cents.
