Yes Doc I agree the WTS is a one way street with all the charitable donations going to themselves . It's the only charity I know of that exists simply to self perpetuate which seems to be its main objective regardless of how they present themselves.

I might be wrong but I have a gut feeling that all this emphasis on visual presentation through this new fangled big boys toys for the Governing Body called JW.ORG TV will result in over exposure.
Lets face it it's a known fact that television just swallows up material very quickly every musical hall act and entertainer every film star knows the danger of easily being type cast and over exposed. When will the boredom threshold start to kick in when will people start to realise it's all repetative especially with the mind numbing subjects on offer.
It took me awhile to realise that it was the same old regurgitated story. One day the repetion just got to me while I was reading the umpteenth past publication same, same, same starting with Adam and Eve ,the Devil, the Serpent ,Jehovah's name , etc. oh and always ended with the New World after the big mass destruction of most human beings from the face of the earth.
Maybe after watching all the hype some Witnesses of long standing will think Ok fair enough point made but now where do we go from here? Some might even think isn't it about time they left to do something really useful towards helping other people for a change.
Lets hope so.

Jehovah on the TV where's the charisma?
by edmond dantes inwhy was someone chosen who by any stretch of the imagination would be the last person in the world anyone would want to present jehovah's message on this very peculiar tv .borg.
i mean the governing body are not showing much sense unless they want to appear totally unlike the run of the mill television preachers if that's the case they didn't have to go to the opposite extreme.
i try to understand where they are coming from but to chose someone who has the makings of an alien from the planet zod is completely baffling.. how is he giving out credibility to anyone remotely interested in the jws.

How is he giving out credibility to anyone remotely interested in the JWs. People will begin to think if he is the best presenter they have what are the rest like. Last point are the rank and file happy with how this guy appears to the average person.

Piston broke a common problem no less.
Actually for the Governing Body the problem is engine wear caused by lean spirit mixture the ratio is all wrong too much oil not enough spirit thus as an engine wears out its combustion declines .
Ah well back to the theocratic drawing board .

Maybe the Brooklyn Boys are running on two stroke engine oil often used in lower power applications such as a leaf blower.

Will the kingdom hall of jehovahs witnesses signs eventually come down?
by hoser init is clear that the leaders of the jehovahs witness religion are rebranding.
so as a strategy they could have both the jw.org signs and kingdom hall signs running at the same time and then in a few years instruct congregations to remove the kingdom hall signs.
this happens all the time with commercial products when there are mergers and company takeovers.. .

Will JW.ORG actually harm the WT Society Long Term ?
by flipper inmy son and i were discussing this yesterday over coffee.
since the wt society in previous years virtually demonized going on the internet at all for jw's - now wt leaders are doing a complete turn around or about face probably so as to " compete " or keep up with all the anti-jw websites that are out there to give the wt society point of view.. however- it very well may backfire on them as once people start doing google searches looking for jw.org it will bring up all the other websites dealing with any jw issues and in the privacy of their own homes out of curiosity i'm sure lots of jw's are going to want to check out some of these sites to see what all the " apostate " hoopla is all about.
i wonder how many jw's will do this and will it have an effect in opening more minds to other views ?

Paul - GB Member (W 9/15/14)
by pixel inok, is this a "new understanding" or what?
up until this point i thought that the borg refered paul as a co or do, but never gb member:.
p. 12 now, why would paul a spiritual giant who likely was a member of the first-century governing bodycall himself a miserable man?.

Paul was a prognosticate they can't touch you for it!
He was a forshadow of Charles T, Here comes the Judge ,Nathan Knorr who incidentially made great chiken soup and Freddy the Franz the World leading theologian and expert in complex Babylonian connections with a whore who was tied up with the United Nations rumour has it she was kept hidden in a broom cupboard on the fith floor.
Saint Paul to give him his correct title did not forshadow any of the succeeding GB members after Franz however because they were mere shadows of the afore mentioned 4 presidents .Several links can be assumed to Paul and the gang of four.
1. Charles T. blinded many when they stared into the great projector light during performances of the Photo Drama of Creation phase.
2. Judge Rutherford went around laying the law down and generally telling people whats what .
3. Nathan Knorr decided that their mass destruction message had to go global.
4. Mad Freddy tried to explain in written form exactly what God had in store for the human race during the latter part of the 20th century which if you were unlucky enough to have been begotten during the last days tough chedder.
