About 2 months ago I wrote a letter to the WTS regarding the UN affair (part of Mrs. Kwin's exiting request). 2 months and still no response. I explained in the letter that I had fallen into inactivity because of the information I found and am searching for an explaination how it could have happened. I still haven't heard anything.
Does anyone know how long it generally takes for them to BS up an answer?

Are you really waiting for an answer? LOL.
Probably no direct answer to you ever. They might possibly try and find out which congregation you were associated with and send a copy to the Elders for them to call on you, and get rid of you if they think you got the info from some apostate source.
So, don't hold your breath!

It took them 6 months or so to respond to a complaint I had like 4 years ago. I'm sure they sent a copy to the body of elders of my congregation, because shortly after some local talks addressing the same issue were given. Coinsidence? I think not!

Most likely they'll forward it to the elders in your local congregation, who will try to come by and have a meeting with you. That's what bethel always did when I sent them a letter for some reason.

That is exactly ALL the the WTS does! They do not reply to you, they just forward it to the local elders.
I can verify the other posters in this----YOU won't get a reply---but as they said---the Elders will. God's humble spokesmen, who are here on the earth to dispense truth and bible comfort to the sheep, cannot be bothered to reply to peons. Sorry.
Maybe they passed your letter on to Ciro Aulicino to answer. --VM44

Oh well. I won't keep my fingers crossed then. Mind you I don't let things go to easily. Maybe since I'm off work the next week I'll harass them on the phone for an answer.

When the WTS doesn't like your question then they stonewall you. Several years ago (after I had already been divorced for a number of years) I reasoned that an affair (unknown to my wife) I had prior to becoming a JW freed both of us to marry. Research into the Societies publications (particularly "Questions From Readers") left no doubt that my conclusions were 100% in line with what the WTS had themselves stated in writing. The local Elders refused to accept my conclusions so I wrote the Society. I never have received an answer to my letter although I have since married again without any official sanctions for doing so.
