GB approves entertainment auditioning for international delegates.

I don't know if this was mentioned but I spoke with a JW from Atlanta, Georgia that informed me that the great GB has approved JW auditions.

Yes, you read that right! Now the JW's will have their own JW idol, JW voice, and Dancing with JW stars, lol.

They are using an assembly hall in Atlanta and JW's from all over are auditioning from 8am till 6pm.

Supposedly the idea is to have live entertainment for the delegates traveling from overseas for the international conventions.

He said they have had JW's who can play all the hits from the Beatles, play merengue, salsa, sing, dance, etc.

The GB is trying hard to make their cult look normal.

Some of the questions this rises are,
Will it work? Are they planning to change big doctrines? How far will they go with their changes and soften the WT's image?

All I can say is that the current WT is no where close to what it used to be but big changes are coming.

I have also heard about this from a friend. You have shared far more details than I have heard though.

According to the information I got, some of the delegates are traveling 2 weeks prior to the big convention and are staying for 3 weeks total. I have two family members traveling from Ecuador to Atlanta and I will be asking them later for more inside info.

Maybe they should get the dancing virgin companions from the watchtower on sunday.

This is probably a local thing. The Seattle area has a "Hospitality Committee" for the International Convention, and that committee appointed one elder per congregation to serve as the Hospitality Overseer for that congregation. So, if there's auditions there in Atlanta, it's likely directed from that committee. I can tell you that the whole thing is blown so far out of proportion... in the Seattle area, they want dancers, singers, etc. to provide entertainment. Haven't heard of any "auditioning", so I'm guessing that's local for the Atlanta convention.

One interesting idea is if they did American dancing through the years.

Traditional Square dancing.

Swing.

Bebop through the 1940's and '50's.

Then you get Elvis Presley time with Rock and Roll...

Next was American Bandstand, dancing and music...

With The Twist and Chubby Checkers...

Who the Watchtower villanized , calling it and the Watosi, African fertility rites,

And after that, those fun dances (twist & watosi ) were banned from all JW gatherings.

Texas Two-step should be safe.

Merengue, Cha-cha, Salsa, would be fantastic,

but what I would really like to see is the GB and COBE's doin ' the Chicken dance,

all in the name of them, entertaining, their guests. lol

I can't imagine it really. A group that has consistently managed to take the entertainment value out of everything, that makes the meetings and conventions as dry and boring as a insurance convention, they are going to have entertainment? The people behind Sparlock and the deaf masturbation video? Scary.

On second thought, scratch that, it's insulting to the insurance industry.
