It makes total sense. And after the positive reception last year for the televised annual meeting, it's a great way to keep the faithful who love this stuff engaged. They got so excited to see the GB televised! Smart move for them.

21TV.JW.Org - Streamed to KHs via the New Projectors
by passwordprotected ini read here recently that the khs are being instructed to buy and install projector systems.. now that we've seen the launch of of tv.jw.org we can fully expect public talks to - on a monthly basis at least - be replaced by content streamed from the site to the screens in khs.. .

TV.JW.ORG
by piztjw ini tried to, out of curiosity, watch tv.jw.org this morning.
i barely could stand to make it seven minutes before i had to quit.. of course there were at least two, maybe three mentions in that short time of the expense incurred and the subtle begging for money to "support" the televangelism effort.
a time lapse video showed the construction of the tv set.

Good one skeeter...they should give that guy some air time.
Well. I could only watch a few minutes. Interesting choice to be the first guy on the show. Yikes. I felt like he was talking slooooowwwww...
What is funny, and what I try to point out to JW's is working on project and accomplishing a goal is not exclusive to JW's for pete's sakes! They act like whenever they do anything they are the only ones that have ever successfully done it!
It's a very slick studio...interesting path. It makes sense to modernize...that was long over due. But then again...we all weren't suppose to be here...we were supposed to be weaving our own clothes or bird fodder by now. But as slick and pretty as this all is...the message has not changed one iota. It is as harsh and punitive as ever. Lipstick...pig.

The email I received with the meeting highlights, (from former Bethelites), said there is a "basic pioneer" and details would be forthcoming.

Did it bother you that they taught, "miss a meeting and you'll fall away?"
by Wasanelder Once inhow many times did we hear that if we dont attend meetings we will leave the truth because satan will get ahold of us?
that always bothered me.
i thought, "if my faith isn't able to stand alone what good is it?

Yes. As if you missed one meeting and you didn't learn where the next meeting was going to be held "during the persecution," then too bad for you. You deserve eternal destruction.
Okaaayyyy.

I agree...just wow.
On the other hand...good job WBTS for keeping up the craziness! And you are watching the History Channel and highlighted 2 - 3 events out of thousands that happened that year! Don't get me started about the striking mine workers that fought for better working conditions which eventually were implemented...events that all working people benefit from today.
Wow.

Oh dear (((awaken)))...I know you had such hopes for your nieces. How frustrating...you've been such a great daughter/sister/aunt to everybody.
There is no reasoning with the cult mind. The cult mind when presented with issues about their beliefs or conduct will go into defense mode and defend the lies. Their natural mind's reaction would be to discuss an issue or fact as presented.
I'm so sorry you had to experience this. It is maddening...I know. This is the crappy cost of leaving. **sigh** I'm here for you. xx
