What would that leave them that sets them apart from any other Protestant evangelical church?

You forgot about the whole Paradise Earth thing, they need that to be unique.

We need to bombard headquarters with this list. It's simple, concise and reassuring; give us what we want and we'll go away.

No, they listen to "honest hearted ones", once you disagree with them about something major you are no longer considered "honest hearted"

I think most of these are potentially possible by degrees except

4b

and 7

1 and 2 are already happening in some areas but quietly.

3 is being forced on them - they will have no choice.

The Catholic church has stopped opposing evolution. Although they don't publicize their stance it is in the foreword of a Catholic Bible. It basically says that Genesis is an allegory and God created man through evolution. That is a stance I think many religions will start taking as evolution becomes more accepted.

Great thread...I agree with rogues original list and finkelsteins additons...

Possibly I'm duplicating but:

drop all titles and pressure to 'do more'

no more star chamber judicial proceedings

admit you have been 'presumptuous' and that you are not the one true channel, your just trying like all the other Christians in the earth....

stop being masters of our faith in all manner of minutiae

oh and BTW, quite a few Protestant religions believe in paradise earth 'in the end', in the recreation and reconciliation to God...was a shocker to me too.

Interesting. Thank you for sharing that. JW_Rogue.

There is no such thing as an acceptable religion. So the WTBTS doesn't need to do anything. LOL

....... and of course the biggest change would be to stop being arrogant assholes who think their version of Christianity is above all others.

Its not, it was founded upon ignorance and corruption involving a publishing house by disingenuous

self indulgent men.

Then rebrand themselves as "Church of England".

What they need to do is find a way to push out the people on the fence. Then phase out the religion to keep the totally hard core JWs from jumping off bridges.
