Elders who put brotherly love before organizational rule keeping are all heroes in my book. I've known plenty.

Do you have a JW hero?
by Island Man inwhen i say jw hero i mean a jw who courageously did what was right despite the indoctrination and peer pressure to conform to cultishness.
i have an unknown jw hero that i've never met but only heard of from an experience relayed to me about an incident at a jw funeral.. i was told that at a jw funeral internment, a non-jw put a wreath in the shape of a cross on the grave.
shortly thereafter a jw elder came up and removed the wreath.

Jesus is God's Son.
He is beautiful as the sun and just as dangerous toward those who hypocritically claim to represent him.

Anthony Morris III: "...we cannot control everything that an individual might say..."
by cappytan ini noticed that anthony morris iii just said on the broadcast: "while we cannot control everything that an individual might say, it is clear that over the decades protecting children from abuse is a top priority for this organization.".
that, in my opinion, is a direct response to the richard ashe "spiritual protection not physical protection" deposition.. here's a video putting the two statements side by side.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgevpuyn7gy.

Splane and Morris Should Thank Raymond Franz, Their Organizational Father
by Hold Me-Thrill Me inthe whole elder body teaching and governing body teaching was based on research by a well known "apostate" raymond franz.
franz wrote the aid book articles which gave rise to the changes made in the congregations and bethel.
knorr was deposed by the johnny come lately new governing body members who in turn gave birth to those in charge today.

Thus Splane and Morris owe their positions to a famous "apostate". Can't think of a better reason to rethink the whole sad governing body system.
From a JW point of view, that is.

July Broadcast Denies That JW Children Die Rather Than Have Medical Care
by BluesBrother inanthony morris 3rd delivered the broadcast this month and advised that lies are circulated that they let children die rather than have medical care .
he says this is so inaccurate as to be a boldfaced lie ...... further he says it is "up to the parents to determine what would be the best treatment for their children" .
now, does this mean that parents are really free to make a decision to accept blood for their minor child, if they so choose?

Morris uses a politician's double-speak.
He is a forked tongue liar just as his real "father" is.
He speaks publicly what Jaracz thought privately because Jaracz was not as stupid as Morris is.
Morris has to go. Just looking at him brings revulsion.
Haughtiness is written all over his face. In his recent life story he was sure to mention that the brother who studied with him was of the anointed and from Russell's generation. This was of course to solidify his place on the overlapping generation teaching.
Problem is many of us in the 50's and 60's were taught by anointed members of Russell's generation so that's no big deal. But for Morris every opportunity to add a higher heel to his shoe is important.

July Broadcast Scriptural Error- FDS/Helper Fail.
by Hold Me-Thrill Me inhe has inadvertently moved the timing of the beginning of the last days to the future.
this kind of scriptural error is the direct result of superficial bible reading.
according to luke 21, first comes the persecution then the wars, earthquakes, food shortages, fearful sights etc.

The current GB is like a preteen trying on her older sister's prom dress. Problem is they are much shorter than their predecessors and their breasts are non-existent.
Small men who will never fill the shoes of Fred Franz or Nathan Knorr. Not that those men were by any means free from error, no. But at least they were able to give the appearance of being real. Splane and company cannot even do that.
They are cartoon caricatures unable to give even the appearance of being Christ's disciples. Jokers, liars, false brothers, murderers who though knowing their history continue to do what is in their best interests! They turn away from the lessons that should have been learned and sin even more than their predecessors.
They have made an idol of themselves and have made money their god. They have no fear of God or love for the struggling brothers and sisters in the congregations around the world. They put on smiling faces at assemblies and conventions. They say "loving" things and embrace those who approach them in idolizing waiting lines.
But in truth, they are filthy men who do not deserve the love of those who would give their lives just on their word alone. Filthy men, not worth the oxygen God provided. Men who imitate the scribes and pharisees of Jesus' day. Men who would have put Christ to death if he dared to prove their religion faulty. Men who demean God's Name. Men who are hypocrites and white washed graves.
As Jesus said, by their fruits we will know them. The Governing Body produces poisonous fruit by making themselves God's mouthpiece. A position no man holds but Christ!

So what do you feel could be done to start reforms and get the WT closer to Biblical and mainstream Christian doctrine?
Reform must be initiated from the inside.
The Watchtower publishing house is a closed fortress which will resist all outside efforts to force the necessary changes it must make. In fact, it is likely that forums such as this one have at times thwarted the efforts of some on the inside to advance reasonable changes. The reason being that those in command will not easily bow their backs to outside opposers even if sound scriptural arguments are put forth by them. These men, stubborn, and at times mean spirited, will protect their territory and history even if it brings down millions more in the Organization.
Reform must come from the few near the top who, being fully aware that something is very wrong, have prayed to God for his help. Those who will trust in Jehovah and together do what is necessary to finally bring Christ into Bethel. Until Christ's teachings reign at Bethel the Watchtower publishing house is no different than any other Christian church including the Roman Catholic church. They are all groping in the dark because they do not truly follow Christ but rather men.
On forums such as this, heat is applied and re-applied in order to heighten the stress upon the Governing Body. To make them as vulnerable and weak as it is possible to do in order that they are continually and increasingly kept off balance. In order that should some on the inside decide to attempt to push the idol off its pedestal it would be ready to fall.
So truly, we all ride tandem toward a shared goal. Those few on the inside cannot do what is being done on the outside and those on the outside cannot do what is possible to do on the inside.
The Governing Body system will fall!
