I remeber in 1964 when the WTS changed its so called light on the resurrection. Once upon a time Hitler was going to be resurrected another time he wasn't the same with Sodom and Gomorrah. Those who perished at the flood. Lots wife, all kinds of drivel and it keeps changing with this "new Light". Oh how about the "superior authorities, or whose is the Alpha and Omega Jehovah, Jesus, Jehovah ,Jesus, now which one is it"?
Once upon a time is how every line is in the organization begins. Once upon a time there was Adam and then Eve and once upon a time there was a flood, once upon a time all the languages were confused at babel. and on and on and on.
Before the elder arrangement things were okay and then the f***ked it up. Then you couldn't smoke. Or even take drugs as they were an approach to the demons. Heaven help those dear ones who suffered from mental illness such as bi-polar or those who suffered schizophrenia and other disorders of the mind. And what about persons who suffered from hypertension, or you needed morphine after surgery, and the Society in its infinite wisdom said it was wrong for mature christains to use mind altering drugs. What about those who are psycotic and needed medicines for that condition. Don't you think that the brothers in Bethel if they were ill like that didn't take those medications. Anyway in my opinion those geriatric GB members are all taking some meds for some conditon. At one time it was considered a no no for a mature Christian to speak to a psychiatrist or mental therapist as we were encouraged to talk to God about our problems. And now it is okay so long as you don't reproach Jehovah's name. The rules for two witnesses in the case of sexual abuse and rape etc.
its okay now to apparently to say the pledge allegiance if the Society belonged to the UN and had to take a pledge allegiance to the charter of the UN. What is good for the goose is good for the gander isn't itl? They are such lying hypocrites its any wonder Jehovh doesn't zap them out of their chairs at Heatquarters.
Remember what Ray Franz said in his book COC that the majority rules when it comes to the making of a decsions in the congregations. a two third agreement, so what about the other who have different feelings about the rules and regulations.,? They are even united in one thought and one spirit.
Well this is all I have to say about matter. And it stinks.

And gee how about getting second hand clothers or furniture, for fear it was demonized and yet today its okay because there is a considerable amount of poverty among God's people . It is even encouraged. And of course the list goes on and on and the energizer bunny can't keep up with the changes.
