I have thought that this might be a great way to reach jDubs. You would have to make a meme. Perhaps the 84 wt "the generation that will never die" with the death dates. I know I've seen that around. If you posted that to an Instagram account with a lot of jdub hashtags A lot of people would see it. You would have to repost it every so often to keep it near the top.

Are there any ex-missionaries here??
by fulano ini have been a missionary in the dominican republic for almost 10 years and i was wondering if there were any ex-missionaries on this forum.. i am back in my country now for 3 years and totally inactive.. what i noticed in those missionary-years was the lack of spiritual interest among the missionaries.. discussions were about rooms, cars and greater responsibilities, the bad territory.
and the local c.o.s and d.os.. was this only in the dr or are there other experiences??.
ere other experiences?

Fulano, I went back and read this entire thread. It is really interesting getting an ex missionaries viewpoint on things. Did you find it hard to integrate yourself into normal non witness human life?

I had heard something where if an elder said he did something in the past that he never came out with at the time but it was more than ten years ago that no action would be taken. He could remain an elder. I could be totally wrong about this though.

Does The Governing Body Have A Plan B For When The End Never Comes?
by frankiespeakin inwhat say all you thinkers out there?.

Change number 1. The first of the overlapping generations could of been born in 1914. Didn't have to be 20 yrs old.
Change number 2. The second of the overlapping generations could be born when the first generation is 80
change number 3. 607 was wrong. Move it up to 587/1934. That adds another 20 years.
With these basic changes that the r&f will joyfully accept as new light the end could be 180 years from 1914. That's way longer than any of us will be alive. No plan b required.

Does anybody have anymore info on this being legit? Every other week or so Tracy posts on fb jwrg3 about his last meeting. just recently he mentioned his last meeting with 40 jw youth. Knowing how the Borg is run makes this seem impossible. I would oh so like to believe his claims but I don't. I don't want to call him out on jwrg3 cause that groups all about love (which I think is great). I'm just not sure what he could be getting out of lying like that unless it's all about the notoriety.

Expect more Crazy as JW.ORG trims the fat and fills the coffers.
by donuthole inwhen rutherford assumed the presidency of the watchtower society he instituted series of sweeping changes to the teachings and practices of the bible students.
some of these changes were at complete odds with what had been taught previously.
a key example was the elevation of the watchtower society as "god's visible organization on earth".

After spending the weekend at the convention it is obvious that the Borg is in rebranding mode. jW.org is everywhere. On the jumbotron. People's buttons. Bags. I never saw a WT symbol. I am confident that in the next short while we will no longer place wt and awake door to door. It will be tracts instead.

LIVE from Ford Field international DO
by darth frosty injust wanted to show the activity in downtown detroit from the convention.
trafic is on jam!.
lots of people .

I have been there both days and this is a little perspective.
1. Boring talks. I know all about TTATT but I can still appreciate a good talk. So far there have been none!
2. this is hard work. People are worn out. The traffic is awful
3. The delegates are weak. Mostly from grrmany. Also from other US stateS. My guess is that not enough people wanted to come to the D so they opened it up to natives. The delegates are wearing their local garb. Not meeting garb but native clothing. The German men are wearing lederhosen.
4. The GB are front and center. Lots of loesh and had a movie in the audio drama staring lett.
5. People are expecting a big announcement. This convention has been built up and people think something big is coming. I think an announcement is coming but it will be at the branch meeting in November. I have no guess as to what it might be.

Why the Clean out of top Management
by Poztate init has been commented here that "soon" the do's will be history.
the co level will be "retired" at age 70 and the latest development was that the cobe can not serve after age 80. it would seem that there is a "cull" of top management.
in secular companys that would signal a radical change of directions ???.

im not much of a conspiracy theorist. I usually think things are done for more simple reasons , but some here make compelling arguments. I know that in northern michigan two Kingdom Halls have been dissolved in the last year. Hail, and ossanique (I have no idea how to spell the second one). These were combined with another hall about an hour away. Also the vast majority of the halls in our area are getting projection systems That can stream from bethel. Very interesting.....
