Who knows?
Maybe one of these days the governing body will come out and say "we never said we were Gods spokesman or Gods only channel.""
ROFL. 🤣
things got a bit lively after the agm leaks in october.
there was a lot of discussion going on on this board for a few months.
now that all the leaks have been more or less confirmed as policy, and we've had lively discussions at length concerning the changes, things seem to have slowed down here.. a few suggestions have been raised as to what might be the next changes, such as women being allowed to wear slacks (in the usa, anyway), decoupling from 1914 as an anchoring date and others.. so, what changes do you think will be announced this year?.

personally i think they gonna realise god's not backing org.
that idea gonna get even more established in their minds.
i think the real selling of kingdom hall gonna start then.
Losing charity status in Norway could start a systematic chain reaction of events to a massive fire sale sell-off of KHs.
Losing charity status means the Borg will have to start paying property tax on their khs and properties.
That cant happen in witnesses land,, they cant afford it or want it.

If they lose charity status "Armageddon is starting,,Armageddon is starting"
Convincing the $heeple to sell everything and give it to the Borg.
Theyve been saying for 10 years to hear "strange" or unusual instructions.
the book reasoning from the scriptures was released in the 1980's, and it was used at virtually every meeting for service, every service meeting, and every theocratic ministry school meeting thereafter.
many jws had copies bound together with their bibles.
it was huge in jw land back then.. at that time, with the reasoning book, jws were trained to keep conversations going in spite of objections, to almost stick their feet in people's doors to keep conversations going, to defend "the truth," to argue doctrine, etc.. compare the situation today with that of the 80's.
When I was new on this forum back around 2009,,, there was an elders letter & a push for the pubs( victims) to return old literature to the KH.
Haha!! Too bad so sad.
Those books are mine. My property. You'll never get them from me!!! NEVER.!!!

They just didn't want to wear pants?
It's just like that video of some guy in India stating that a JW taking a blood transfusion or refusal one was a ''personal choice''.
UM, okay, right I'll buy that one.

"(The issue I was directly commenting on is that the WTS considers all human governments under Satan's control directly or indirectly) ""
This firms-up Borg us. vs. them mentality.
The Borg claim that "this is the best imperfect organization'' mentality.

The Borg making it up and reinventing itself. As they go along.
We all know that the matter of "free choice" in the Borg is nothing but an 'illusion''

Good pick-up Blondie!!
(revelation 17:5) “babylon the great, the mother of the prostitutes (plural!
) and of the disgusting things of the earth.”.
btg is spotlighted as being the principal "disgusting thing" which affects christians & christianity, with other lesser "prostitutes" in the background... (revelation 18:4) “get out of her, my people, (christians) if you do not want to share with her in her sins, and if you do not want to receive part of her plagues.".
"We are not trying to create a new language".
The same way you would hear Witnesses say at the doors " we aren't here to change your religion".
Then why in the hell are they out there doing this preaching work?
None other than 'obligation'.
In other words lying for the Borg

Babylon the Great is the world empire of false religion.
That's because the Borg says it is right now. Thats apt to change. The GB makes it up as they go along. If you don't like it out the door you go.
But just wait 6 months. The interpretation of the Babylon could change. Remember they(GB) "are not inspired and can err when it comes to doctrinal matters''.
And no ''apology'' is necessary for not getting it right. Meanwhile affecting many lives adversely. ''No apology."
