Its like its not even fair anymore, JW.org is using a 67 Volkswagen Bug trying to keep up with the modern day Ferrari that is the internet.
That said, it really shows the absolute lack of brainpower up there. Who is calling the shots on this one? They have a mole, trying to put the toothpaste back into the tube isn't going to work in a million years.
Idiots.
Remember the leak that COs were going to be a thing of the past? (Fool me once.....)
Actually the leak was correct. The GB was looking into getting rid of DO's and CO's and discussing this with foreign Branches for input. They'd talked about using brothers from the specific circuit to visit local congregations as in a City Overseer arrangement. Part-time circuit overseers would report to the local Branches, help process appointments, give special talks, etc. all from his own home base and using his own transportation as visiting speakers do now.
The DO's have been let go but the CO's remain although the CO visits have been shortened and they've been given more responsibility for appointments.
The leak was just too soon during the process as they muddled their way through the "changes" that the JW's would need to go along with although not seeming logical from a "human" point of view. So... These changes were in the works, discussed with foreign Branch rep's but too raw when the leak went out.
BOE mentioning Oct 4th letter
We used to offer the public 128 pages of Watchtower and Awake! wisdom every month but from next January that's down to a slim 16 pages.
Really? Have I got that right?!
Am I missing something?
They are just making some changes to the service meeting format as far as I can make out through all the noise.
It's not like they are declaring the "second coming of Christ", setting a new end-time date, changing their stance on blood, disfellowshipping or just admitting they made everything up and are packing up shop.
There is a time and a place for going nuts over things but I don't think this is really "it".
The story is that the letter leaked, not so much what is in the letter ... right?

Yep, that's it. An 87.5% reduction in content.
