there are no serious consequences for doubting the gb.
there are no consequences for going against the direction.
we can now celebrate anything.. what will happen if you take blood, celebrate xmas and birthdays ect?.
Slim is bang on.
They already have in place a systematic way of ostracizing 'weak' ones inactive or.....whomever they want to ostracize as they see fit.
Quit showing up to meetings.
Miss meetings.
Dont comment.
Go inactive
Go irregular.
See what I mean?
i'm still digesting these changes and i think i'll reserve judgement for some months until we see how it all plays out in reality.. however, if the disfellowshipping process really has been de-fanged and shunning is beginning it's retreat into the society's past then what excuses will there be in the years to come for anyone who wants to leave?.
i can almost understand why they've done this.
more carrot, less stick.
Armageddon is coming 'soon'.
during lett’s announcement that beards are now allowed he elaborated at some length how brothers ought to feel and react to the change in policy.
he warned brothers not to resent not being able to grow beards earlier if they had wished to do so.
he also warned brothers who supported the old policy not to allow themselves to wonder what the point of doing so was now that it has changed.
Becoming a " nicer , gentler kinder religion".
Yes.
In a way. For $$$$

New light update before you know it.
Treat "inactive" ones as disfellowshipped
But,, they do already in a way. Just start slowing down spiritually or quit showing up.
is the change in jw dress policy a way to make the changes in df policy easier to accept?.
a way to devide?.
g..
The pharisaical controls continue.
Just with a little bit of "seasoning"
We see these "pharisaical controls" rear their ugly head once you disagree with something from the gb or the wt.
there's been a lot of discussion about the changes in the org.
you might think all this would shake things up, especially for the older or super dedicated jws.
but remember when gb decided all the khs and the bank accounts needed to be transferred/managed from the top?
We keep hearing that word over & over & over & over all the time in broadcasting,, meetings and what not...
Is,,,"unity".
What they are really saying is ""uniformity"". "" conformity"".
What the Borg is relying on is all of it's $heeples is thinking,,acting and all looking alike.
Unity,,no. It's Uniformity. Conformity.

If this "great tribulation"" starts if and or when,,, there will be no going back for the Borg.
It can happen only once.
There is NO going back!!
It will be like the Borg pushing a "self destruct" button.
This is the pickle the Borg will pit itself into.
The Borg is self fulfilling. Self serving .
Its focus is it's own sustainability.
I dont think they will go there with this.

He is well researched,,methodical and intelligent
