  New light

  things are changing so rapidly.

  there is so much confusion now.. if we can talk to disfellowshiped/disassociated ones to invite them to meetings then is it really going to stop there?.

  some family members haven’t had contact for decades and now after yesterdays new light they will all be getting calls.

  I think there will be a lot of “sorry you weren’t there when I needed you most and I’ve moved on” from the long time disfellowshipped community.

  is the change in jw dress policy a way to make the changes in df policy easier to accept?.

  a way to devide?.

  I don’t see much change in the df policy.

  Will a dfd still have to attend meetings for 6 months to be reinstated?

  probably

  Did the prodigal son have to wait 6 months ?

  As far as the corporate dress code it is just that. A change in policy to retain employees.

  few norwegian religious communities need to worry after the jehovah's witnesses verdict, according to legal expert vibeke blaker strand.

  he has pointed out that it is particularly serious to deprive a religious community of its registration.

  Watchtower might be arrogant enough to appeal.

  They are in a bubble as the watchtower culture won’t accept criticism from lower down members.

  Yes men are bad for any corporation in the long term.

  an interesting video was on youtube with a person claiming that the memorial date for 2024 was wrong.

  so i consulted three different jewish calendars online and sure enough, he appears to be right.

  i went back to 2014 and forward to 2027. they have the future dates listed.

  March 24 is close to Easter so it’s good enough. Jehovah’s witnesses take the organization at its word and don’t do their own research.

  No one will notice it’s almost a month too early.

  just wondering if the witnesses still go door to door.

  once in a while i see them doing their cart work and my still in relatives talk about going out in cart work, never mention door to door.

  i haven't had a knock on my door since probably 2 years before covid.

  Institutions that mandated co vid vaccines are now being sued and they are losing.

  That’s why watchtower is dropping the mandate now.

  Does The WT President Still Have Any Power?

  by NotFormer in

  in rutherford's day, it was absolute.

  knorr and franz had strong influence, even though the gb had voted themselves into a role of significance.

  being a corporation, the wt will still have a president.

  He may have been led to think he has a lot of power but he has no authority to make autonomous decisions.

  That being said as the president of a corporation he holds personal responsibility and liability and will suffer monetary and criminal repercussions for illegal activities or lawsuits against the corporation.

  He’s being used as a patsy for the governing body.
