  The brothers (FDS & GB) wanted to make sure that the WHOLE brotherhood knows they love us dearly

  
  
  Y' mean they love them so much that they do (NOT) consider thair feeling, concerns, objections, questioning just like "loving" grandfathers would do?
  
  ... From the other direction, those who feel that some kind of "grass roots" expresson will bring about change are quite anaware of the spirit that characterizes Governing Body meetings. Having attended many hundreds of these, I know the disregard, often approaching disdain, with which questioning and objections from the "rank and file" are considered.

  Our CO just came back from two months CO Training.

  Has there been any mention of this training on JWD? If not - where are our spies??? Two months of training is a big deal.

  If is all this CO got out of it was two sentences, he didn't take good notes. Wonder what else was talked about during those two months.

  Don't worry, they go that covered.

  "Soon", in WT-speak, is any period of time from a few seconds to 125+ years (haven't they been predicting the end to come "soon" since 1879?)

  It's...always...just....a...little...bit...further....ahead...

  "Our CO just came back from two months CO Training. He said there were two important things headquarters want the brothers to know:

  (1) The brothers (FDS & GB) wanted to make sure that the WHOLE brotherhood knows they love us dearly! and

  (2) We are so close to the end that the preaching work IS slowing down!!!

  The theme of the service talk was "Do not Give up!" "

  Translation: The JWs finally see the "end" of the preaching work. This "end" is near because most people know they're full of shit, and they're no longer gaining converts. The 2 months of training the CO was on was a basic computer course he enrolled in, because he sees nothing but unemployment in his future. Hopefully, this course will help him find a job when the cult no longer needs him.

  lmao... brainwashing at its finest:

  Good News Everyone!!!! Things are slowing down, our production facilities are making massive cutbacks and we are loosing members faster than we can bring them in! Truly a sign of Jehover's Blessings™!!!

  The preaching work IS slowing down. Why?? It is because no one exerts themselves in it anymore. No one REALLY believes that this is the "end". They prefer to go to coffee shops and ride around in their cars or ring doorbells all the while knowing that no one will answer. The "preaching WORK" is a farce!

  Only the jws could admit that the work is slowing down and make it sound positive. The silly thing is, most of the r & f will swallow this without question. What a pile of bs.
