i would like to see one or better two members of the governing body get disfellowshipped and they both go off to write books like ray franz exposing the cult to all the sexual scandals, the hidden agendas with the stock market investments, the lawsuits, the laying of long time bethel workers, hidden sins by the higher ups and all the other nasty skeletons in the watchtower closet..
what would be different today compared to rays time is that we now live in a social media world..
they would be invited to talk in the oprah winfrey show, ellen degeneres show, the view, dateline.
Seriously? People want to give money to GB members?
Yes. In the same way that people helped Ray Franz when he left. If the GB member is leaving due to the same crisis of conscience and is basically kicked to the curb, why shouldn't we be supportive. He was just as blinded as we were while still in. The fact that he woke-up and took a stand would merit at least some support. I don't think he should be given a golden parachute, but something to cushion the fall would be appropriate.
guys .
a letter was just read in out kh stating that all printing of wt and awake is ceased for the coming year and we will just place tracts on fs, countries which were cared by our branch will be cared by other countries...along with this they read the new fs form and stuff about reporting links of videos wtf..lol.
i can't tell which country perhaps that will give away a lot, any one with a similar information.

perhaps a country soon to have a ban...
Let's hope not. Bans do nothing but strengthen their resolve.

i went to the meeting last night.
to keep the peace for now, i guess.
anyway...... during the bible highlights, a newly appointed ms explained why construction is being curtailed in some areas.
draw close to jehovah.
chapter 22 - is the wisdom from above at work in your life?.
paragraph 18 - not making partial distinctions, not hypocritical"godly wisdom rises above racial prejudice and national pride.
it is evident that the w.t has recently re-branded itself, and has become fairly modern in its marketing techniques.
so the organisation is in that respect forward thinking, and the former way of doing things has past.. .
but this rebranding has been done by marketing experts, who maybe realise progress is progress, and that with modernisation many bethelites " even as free volunteers" are possibly no longer required.
Money is property, but it's not liquid. They can't do anything with it if it's tied up in real estate. They can't rent it out like other businesses might as they'd be held responsible by the R&F for whatever those businesses did. So, yes, selling high-value property is dumb in a business model, but makes sense if you need to free up cash.
I also think they are looking to isolate bethel workers even more. I've heard many stories of the trouble that those in the big cities would get in to. By moving to a more remote location, they will lower the number of incidences.
sorry if this has been covered, but are they now counting time by linking to their website on instagram accounts of jws?.
i keep a casual stalk on my niece and nephew on insta, and have found links to all their local jw youth insta accounts, even their parents have accounts, it seems quite acceptable.
99% of them are private but every single one has a link to the website in their bio and a thing saying "jw" and often a scripture or god reference.
the human brain has a neural interdependence that underpins the human need to group together.
learn why we need others to thrive and survive on the next episode of the brain with david eagleman, airing tonight at 10/9c on pbs.. watchtower knows that isolation is a killer and yet they enforce it.. they are murdering our brains!.
clarity .
