  For now. As this develops each pubilisher will be assigned one as well This will make it much easier to manage accounting. When everyone has their number assigned, they will each be issues a publisher card with their number, if they are baptised, baptism date, status in org, publisher status, etc.... Ultimately the cards will be replaced with microchips with the same information; in the hand for regular publishers and in the forehead for pioneers, elders, ms, overseers, etc....

  I doubt it, the GB don't even know who, along with themselves, make up the body of Christ and are their own brothers and sisters in the truest spiritual sense. They just amount to a total and even that is questioned by them.

  Er... correct me if I'm wrong, but hasn't there been Pioneer Identfication Numbers for years? Pioneers used to get a card the size of a business card with their number on it. I remember having one of these back in the 80s.

  I seem to remember having some sort of card as a pioneer, but don't recall if it had a number on it. Maybe

  Amazing. I never would have imagined that. Nothing would surprise me anymore.
