One more thing.. how many of the 8.5 million are actually there of their own accord? How many of the 8.5 million just stay so that they won't lose families, spouses, children and friends by shunning. How many of the 8.5 million will lose their housing/ jobs if they leave? How many are coerced under fear, obligation and guilt?
How have the numbers been massaged to squeeze out a higher total?
You cannot leave this organization with your dignity in tact.
