Can the average JW name their Governing Body?

    I don't think I met one JW who can name the Governing Body ... which is strange since they basically surrender their conscience to them.

    Could you (without cheating) name each member of the Governing Body?

    My bet is 90% of JWs would throw out the names of GB members that are rotting in the grave.

    Shouldn't they be in Heaven as Kings and Priests for Jesus?

    I remember in the 90's when WTS president Freddie Franz died. (I was an active JW, and attended all the meetings then.)

    I only learned about his death through a "worldly" newspaper, and had no idea who his successor was. Somebody at my hall later told me it was Henschel. I didn't hear of it through the organization till about 4 months later in the Watchtower rag.
