How can the org instruct members not to do this if that is their "personal ministry" that has no legal connection to the org, as stated in the Elder's book to avoid liability?

Just like the free food boxes in 2020, it is entirely a government program. Except this has no WT participation at all, they're just directing people towards a public website.

Atlantis, that's interesting from the Dutch Consolation. So no similar thought at all was in the English same issue? If not, what happened, a local writer putting their personal opinion?

Are you confirming that MJ disassociated himself, because I don't think it's ever been known, most people speculating he got disfellowshipped or just became inactive.

It couldn't be Bud because he died decades before I believe. Also the guy I'm thinking of was part Hispanic I believe.

Does anybody remember that old guy at Bethel (forget his name) 20 years ago or so would print out a big sheet of these with small print, copies by the hundreds and pass them out to visitors? I wonder if he ever got counseled about that 😆

I can understand if they went to a similar cult, like LDS, Scientology, one of their own making etc. But what about general "churches", can you make a logical argument instead of just "WHY"?

2021 Annual Meeting: just more self-exaltation
by neat blue dog inthe annual meeting from last fall had a live audience again this time and a recording of it makes up the january monthly program.
jesus said "everyone who exalts himself will be humbled", and the gb as usual waste no time in exalting themselves over the course of the annual meeting.
during splaine's talk, he says i guess what he thinks is a profound part of the talk outline, and then says "i'll repeat that", and reads it again.

The Annual Meeting from last fall had a live audience again this time and a recording of it makes up the January monthly program. Jesus said "everyone who exalts himself will be humbled", and the GB as usual waste no time in exalting themselves over the course of the annual meeting.
During Splaine's talk, he says I guess what he thinks is a profound part of the talk outline, and then says "I'll repeat that", and reads it again. He's not reading from the Bible, he's just reading from his own talk, and he backs up to re-read his own words for the audience to take note of with such undue reverence. They say they aren't inspired but they think they basically are.
Later they show the progress of the large media construction project, and just in case you aren't as excited as you should be, the narrator turns on the applause sign by saying, "no doubt, seeing these images is very exciting and encouraging for you".
Another crazy thing was during their convoluted new light on end-times prophecy. One thing I've seen joked about a few times on this forum is taking a scripture and adding or replacing words with very specific JW doctrine. Well, this time they actually did it for real. I didn't see it coming and laughed out loud when it flashed on the screen. They took a scripture from Daniel, and added their own words to fit their current interpretation, like "great crowd", "1914" and "Jesus Christ" instead of Michael.
