The Baha'i Studies Listserv I'm interested to know whether what we've found over here is true all over the place. It's been very difficult getting decent numbers to cluster meetings for quite a few years. There was a discussion about the subject at a recent meeting where a couple people expressed aversion to the idea of door knocking as the reason. I hadn't thought about this before but it sounds right. One person in our community has a monthly deepening on a particular week of the month, and chose to hold it on the same morning as the expansion phase as a competing event.
I heard a report from a recent pilgrim about them shutting down the new pilgrim house and going back to the old because donations are down. I hope this has no connection with the door knocking, as I would be less likely to want to join a religion if I knew they wanted me involved in door knocking.
