As far as the numbers go, all I know is that simply hasn't been my observation. Also, there are places that today have 50-100+ regular attendees, complete with a meeting hall and bookroom, where n the 90's there was no LSM church (or previously had only been a few families meeting).
The number of full-time trainings is up to at least 7-8 worldwide.
The FTTA has more trainees now than in the past.
As far as the rehasing goes, well...I guess there's two ways to look at that. On the hand, they're rehashing so, they're kinda dying. On the other hand (two sides to everything, remember), the fact that they're still chuggin' along after 15 years of rehasing...well, what does that tell you?
