since covid in france, especially in the countryside with lack of brothers, it was quite common that some sisters were using the computer at the back of the kingdom hall to manage zoom session.. i heard a rumor that new instructions, maybe a july letter, stated that this was reserved for male only, even unbaptised publishers, but no sister if there is at least a male available.
that would be a steps back and disappointment for these sisters.
last week i heard at my mom’s house how they were happy that this service was available for them, a proof that the org was moving forward.

big news.
just in from a friend who is fading.. disfellowshipping will no longer be a term used by jws.
study article 35, paragraph 4 footnote says this:.
I suspect that the GB is divided over whether they want to significantly downgrade the practice of shunning or whether they just want to tinker with the wording and keep shunning practice in place as far as possible.
AMIII said in the Norway video that we will never change our policy on disfellowshipping. A year and a half later changes are being made and AMII has "gone". Probably what all the fuss was about.

from reddit.. a summary of changes: .
we are all sinners, so we have to be reasonable how we punish sinners.
if elders and congregation do not quickly help someone come to be reinstated they would be imitating satan the devil, not jehovah (yes that actually is what is said in the tagalog version in translation!
Not because of love or compassion, but because of legal and money.
Absolutely. Money is what this organisation is about.

Thank you Atlantis, you always come up with the goodies!
That front cover is a far cry from the one that someone put on here a week or so ago. No wonder they changed it! Printed copies of that magazine would be worth a fortune.

Died, like so many others in that war. Probably had well off relatives to commemorate his name in the local church.

the september watchtower has already been released and is being discussed over on reddit.
some highlights: .
1. more hitting the flock on total reliance and obedience to god's representatives on earth today, the f&ds (the governing body, of course).
Why can’t they just take the September WT, swap out the date in the cover and footers, and name <what was the September WT> as <the new August WT>?
The September WT is already on jw dot org. Too late for that idea FFGhost.

certainly amongst the best actors ever.
probably the best.

the upcoming governing body update, set to be released on friday this week, will feature a bearded samuel herd.. jwtalk website revealed the leak, so this thread will be used to speculate the content of the update and discuss the actual contents after its release..
I suppose we will have to call him 'Black Beard'.

More concerned with inclusion, pronouns and other left wing twaddle.
