Right after 2 elders talked to me about being in a foreign language congregation and how it was a privilege and I should be there to support the congregation, they had a local needs talk with the exact same information that they talked with me about. Made me wonder if my wife and I were being "marked".

Samuel Herd's statement about donations and Cialdini's social proof
by slimboyfat insamuel herd made a statement a few weeks ago about halting construction work, laying off bethel workers and reducing printing output: severe cutbacks all round.
he said, like the head of a household, the gb has to make sure the organisation is living within its means.
but he added a very careful phrase, something like: "be assured brothers these measures have not been taken as a result of any lack of financial support on your part.

So, beat the sheep for not stepping up in the congregation, not doing more, etc., but don't beat them up for donations as it might harm our supply of money! -

Still sending hours, RVs, and bible studies to the branch, but not placements or video showings. I think they were probably tired of seeing all the "placements" that were recorded not adding up to reality.
It makes sense, though, as they COs now appoint elders and MS. The branch doesn't need all that info.
On a side note wifibandit's video showing numbers will be through the roof! LOL

Do You Think Any Of The Governing Body Are Contemplating Suicide? Over This Rather Rude Financial Reality?
by Brokeback Watchtower infaithful and always so very discrete in many things but when it comes to the lord's money not so good.. i think as it begins to register in their minds as to what a terrible job they have done as ceos of a large corporation leading it into this condition that thoughts of suicide come from.
not to mention the shame at being a public spetical to the world by the rc.
all these things and more are creeping through their denial as they are forced to face reality.

Nah, not suicide. Maybe one will wake up though! Although I can't imagine which one it would be. They all seem like they drank too much of the kool-aid. Maybe one of the helpers will wake up. Maybe one of the helpers is already awake and is waiting for his call to the inner-circle so he can really bust open the inner sanctum and what goes on.
I've heard that they make the GB members leave their phones at the door, but there are tons of ways to record today. Short of strip searches, there is no way they could eliminate the possibility of all recording devices. I bet releasing some of the meetings of the GB, especially the meetings where they determine "NuLite" would cause an exodus not seen since the early 1900s.

The Angels will guide a nuclear bomb away from the Governing Body!
by John Aquila inthis is one major reason why i dont try to wake up anyone anymore.
they need to take the first step, and then i will help---- if they ask.
otherwise i just listen and marvel at how some of them think.

But I thought the layoffs were not due to a lack of donations from the J-Dubs??? -

It could be that they are putting a halt to disfellowhipping for certain offenses like apostasy or being the victim of child abuse.
