Use pre written article and use a script to substitute 1-7 in place of whatever word they used last time.

Don't underestimate the abilities of the writers/researchers. Barbara Anderson researched articles and wrote some for the Awake, and she is a very intelligent, capable writer and may some day have a book to add to the publications by ex-JWs.

They let a WOMAN write the magazines???? Dont they know their own rules??

So person without a penis can write it, but a person without a penis cant then read same stuff from the platform facing the audience? Am I missing some formidable piece of logic here?

(I must look up this lady)

Blond,

I think back when Barbra was in,, things were a lot different, and it has been all down hill in the last 10 or 15 years.

I'm thinking also since 1980 and the big shake up, they have probably don't want writters doing much bible research, after what happened to most of the researchers for the Aid book.

Barbara was writing articles long after 1980.

I know of one or two who have been invited to write articles for the Awake. The general way it works is that you write your article, it goes of to Bethel it gets returned with suggestions, deletions, comments, etc. The article gets re-worked and it goes through the same loop may be 3 or 4 times more. At the end of the day, it is nothing like the original, Brooklyn may have written it themselves.

If they have some good programmers they do not need any.

It is really possible to generate all the articles with some templates, selected www information for the awake, and info on older wt publications. It is just repeating, the same theme always. Very uniform. You know what the next sentence or paragraph is gong to say...

frankiespeaking,

I am curious about what happened to the writers/researchers at the time of the Aid book and the 1980's shake-up. I left the JW's in 1966, so have missed a lot since then. Shake-up? What shake-up?

Blond,

I know. But what I'm saying is the GB has been dumbing down since the big shake up gradually, and probably even more since Barbra left. That may explain the cut and paste in so much that has been written lately. I'm sure the GB keeps everyone nervous in the writting department, which might also explain the dumbing down as everyone is afraid of being labeled an apostate which I imagine can happen very easily these days with an overly paranoid GB.

Rod,

I think R. Franz, E.Dunlap and somebody else with a last name that begins with R. were major contributor in the Aid books compalation and have since had thier eyes open and left. I may be wrong I'm sure Blondie can fill in the details she's more up on the info than I am.
