  If the org. Is being advised by consultants, is a name change in the works?

  by nowwhat? in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  let's be honest, there's a stigma to the name jehovah's witness.

  if they are going more mainstream.

  i imagine the first recommendation was a name change.

  why did the org pay an outside consultancy (if true ) to show them where they have gone wrong ?...

  we could have shown them-for free.

  because of some respect for family members, we visited the memorial today.. a moment i always think, could i go back into this religion?

  we entered the hall and some said a short hello.

  and with short i say short.

  The Memorial and my thoughts.

  by Truth and Justice in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  no matter what opinions you may have, the memorial is very important to us.

  many are opposed to the way the organization performs the memorial because of restrictive rules as to who should partake.

  as jesus said in scripture, "keep doing this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.

  Thoughts on Likely Upcoming Changes in the Org.

  by Phizzy in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i am thinking that the "ten year plan" that some have spoken of is the most likely scenario.

  the org.

  has to both attract new members and retain as many existing ones as possible.. so i think they will let the recent changes "bed in" for a while, maybe a year ?

  i wonder if they will stop counting numbers ? This business of ticking a box each month to say " i did some witnessing " is a bit hit and miss--isnt it ?

  they should definitely dump the word WATCHTOWER. Lose the prison camp connotation.

  It will be easy enough now there are hardly any magazines being printed.

  Beards vs. Shunning announcements

  by slimboyfat in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  during lett’s announcement that beards are now allowed he elaborated at some length how brothers ought to feel and react to the change in policy.

  he warned brothers not to resent not being able to grow beards earlier if they had wished to do so.

  he also warned brothers who supported the old policy not to allow themselves to wonder what the point of doing so was now that it has changed.

  it depends where it is.
