For many years now, the number of the remnant of anointed Witnesses has been decreasing, while the number of the great crowd has increased beyond our grandest expectations
"Announcement", The Watchtower, April 15, 1992, page 31
"Organizing for Further Expansion", 1993 Yearbook of Jehovah's Witnesses, ©Watch Tower, pages 253-254
The FACTS show the above statement to be FALSE/misleading/lies. The number of the "anointed" has basically remained the same for over 40 years according to stats in the year books.
GB flunkies, A.K.A. (acronym for Another Kiss Ass?) HELPERS are being groomed to be GB'ers. All they need is for jehober to send the "holy spirit" to anoint them. Once they are "anointed" they too will receive 'nu-lite'. Can't wait!
just saying!

I think I'd like to see Hamburger Helper promoted to the Governing Body. Maybe then they could actaully give food at the proper time. -

Anyone who doesn't think the current GB embers have protégés who they're grooming for future positions is naïve, IMO.
It's the best way to ensure continuity of policy and doctrine.

They tend to be already partaking for some time. The WTS observes appropriate male jws in the field (CO, DO) and brings them into Bethel for some years to observe them directly. I have never heard of a GC brought in and appointed to GB after a few years of partaking. -

GB = gods (everybody bow)
GB Helper = people that are regularly in the presence of gods (bow just in case)
What's strange is they do not allow a regular speaker to be announced as a "pioneer and coordinator in the so-and-so congregation" - but spout off titles of any man from the branch. They always open their talk with "love and greetings from the governing body and the blah blah committee at blah blah branch" - followed of course by obligatory clapping.
Management on a pedestal. Also a reminder that Big Brother is present.

They have it ALL figured out, don't they?? They are going to dig their own grave, IMO..

I happen to know David and unless he started partaking recently, he doesn't claim to be anointed. That could change though I guess. When he was appointed a "helper" I think there was quiet speculation about it. As far as I know nothing has changed. -

I remember back in the 90s when they started the helper arrangement there was a lot of speculation that Armageddon was imminent because the helpers were other sheep and could run things on the earth when the gb went to heaven at the big A.

They are really going to have get inventive soon. What happens after all the old GB die off? What then?
Lets say they are all gone, except Sanderson. Are the sheeple really going to hang around another 40 years to see if he gets raptured? What are the "helpers" going to do when NOTHING ever happens?
They better re-brand into something fun or they are screwed.
