  From reddit

  They posted a 12-minute of the W5 team on FB.

  More than 54,000 views in less than 24 hours.

  The episode should have a decent sized audience.

  Comment on:

  http://www.jwstruggle.com/2011/06/changes-on-treatment-of-disfellowshipped-ones/

  Anyway, I believe that “marking” and disfellowshipping are to be treated the same. 2 Thessalonians 3:14-15 says: “But if anyone is not obedient to our word through this letter, keep this one marked, stop associating with him, that he may become ashamed. 15 And yet do not be considering him as an enemy, but continue admonishing him as a brother”. The Greek word which the NWT translates “stop associating with” in 2 Thessalonians 3:14 is the same word used in 1 Corinthians 5:11 for “quit mixing in company with”. Both texts in the Greek language are speaking of someone who is unruly or immoral. Also, notice that 2 Thessalonians 3:15 tells us to, “not be considering him as an enemy, but continue admonishing him as a brother.” A question I have asked many JW’s over the years is, how can we admonish one as a brother if we cut him off as the organization says we should?

  Biblically drunk.

  So ridiculous.

  Another arbitrary WT law.

  An elder's pioneer wife lost her license for DUI ( over .08). She was pulled as a RP during the six months, but no public reproof or anything else. Put back on the list as soon as the suspension was over.

  this months broadcast is presented by losche and he discusses the need for trust in the fds.

  the following is transcribed from the 12.30 mark.. satan also has the scheme to spread rumors about our brothers including the faithful slave.

  the method of spreading rumors is not new.

  Soon, just before Armageddon, the remaining members of the Slave will be taken to heaven.

  Sounds like prepping for a scam.

  "Where's the money?"

  - It's gone.

  "Where's the GB?"

  - Must be in heaven.
