I just checked koolaid.org (jw.org) and they don't have Aug 15th listed...?

That's true. It's Thursday morning, 11 a.m. and it's still not listed on JW.org.

I collected my magazines from the KH at the last meeting. (July public WT & Awake + August 15 Study WT)

"Has the Governing Body changed its mind about the closeness of the great tribulation?" asked Brother Pierce. "Not at all," he answered. "If the great tribulation interrupts our plans, that will be wonderful, absolutely wonderful!"

So little Randy can go off to University for four years and say that "If the great tribulation interrupts my plans, that will be wonderful, absolutely wonderful!"

Didn't they build magic Bethels able to withstand the Big A. That was the sales pitch back in the 60s. God's Organization was laying the foundation for the New World Society!

I'd love to hear this from the platform!

"If the great tribulation interrupts our plans, that will be wonderful, absolutely wonderful!"

The annihilation of 7 billion people? Hundred of millions of babies & little children?

It is remarkable how they can put a positive spin on anything.

"Six central american branch office closures?! Sure it's a shame - but this way we all get to hang out together in the same branch office! How happifying! Jehovah is blessing us by removing national boundaries as with an eraser..."

I actually pity them for being so stupid and detached from reality.

''Because of this merger, the Bethel family in Mexico has become more multicultural and international. The influx of fellow believers from different lands has resulted in an interchange of encouragement''

The truth is probably more along the lines of what happens when any city, country or community becomes 'multicultural'...

suspicion, mistrust, conflict, jealousy, fear, hurt

Hearing that quote again just made me realize - "an interchange of encouragement" is such a cliche. How often do we hear that little nougat of crap rolled out in talks and publications?

We're getting to the stage where Watchtower reasoning on any issue is becoming so predictable, it almost writes itself.
