From what was posted on this thread: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/12/140004/1.ashx I would say they are definitely headed in that direction.

Sorry, I meant spiritually dead.
Bethel is spiritually dead. They no longer care for the hurting and injured sheep. They have abandoned Jehovah's sheep and have replaced following Jesus with following the Organization which in reality is only men.
Men rule the Organization not Jesus!

Yes, it's the latest rumor. The Society is on auto-pilot and everyone at Bethel has died.
Why did you think that we would take this sentence in any way but literally?
We already know that they are ''spiritually dead''.
That's like anouncing to the world that it is round.
Will you remember next time to be more specific? Please?
thanks

Eclipse,
I can tell I'll take me some time to get to know most here. Surely Bethel being on "autopilot" could not be that the presses are running and the computers are writing all on their own!
There is a disconnect here that is disconcerting. Did you really think I meant the men running Bethel are physically dead and that the machines at Bethel are somehow running on automatic? Metaphor was at play here.
I'm sorry if you feel I said something everyone knows. I'm under the impression that many things said here are already known.
But if somehow I've stepped on some toes I apologize.

I did not take it as metaphor, they could of been on auto-pilot if everyone commited suicide and decided to let everything run on auto-pilot, that is the image your words put into my mind at any rate.
My stupidity.
You did not step on my toes. I was just annoyed because I got worried, and because you just dropped a bomb shell and then did not provide any answers!
Yes things are posted here that get repeated, but Brooklyn being spiritually dead? That gets discussed in so many threads. Just read!
Spend at least 2 hours reading past threads. That's what I did. You will learn so much.

I think some would consider the post title to be alarmist, like walking into a theater and yelling "fire".
