  The GB Knew What They Were Doing

  i believe that the governing body knew very well what would be the consequences of publishing the above article on apostates.

  they carefully word every article, not only for the faithful, but for the unfaithful, and for those who have never believed our faith.

  the above article and the comments here show me their great wisdom, because they have achieved exactly what they wanted.

  That's the unfortunate part of this situation. Just do the best you can. I hope that if you go, you can enjoy yourself despite being awakened to the "truth".

  I do my best to avoid "spiritual" conversations when I'm in that position or I remain vague in my answers.
  Overall, my "friends" don't live and breath the "truth".
  I think that's why I still stay socially active with many of them.
  But special pioneers means they really believe this stuff. Just avoid anything negative about their beliefs. If you do go, I think you'll be alright.

  If you don't mind faking. For me, I still would do it just for the social aspect. Otherwise, whatever.
  But think about how you might feel after being asked certain questions. Is it worth it mentally? If you don't care then I say go for it!

  just recently the org has changed the literature distribution to the congregation members.. the changes are:.

  1) publishers are to pick-up their mag's weekly in preparation for what they think they will use that week.

  2) group conductors shall now distribute the study article of the wt, and the km.. wonder why they have changed this?.

  I'm aware of picking up the public magazines on your own, depending on what is needed for the week.

  But as was stated in the OP, the whole thing about the private edition of the Watchtower being distributed to publishers by the group overseers, does not happen in my hall.

  And thus far, no one else is confirming it has or is happening in their hall. So, is the private edition meant to be distributed by the elders only? That is my question.

  Time for OBVES' back up date!
  Don't even think about living a normal, as he's got plenty of dates when it could all go down. But today is not looking too good. Carry on people.
  Maybe next month.
  ***CoC returns to minding his usual business and ignores OBVES' super silly theories and predictions......til next month. AHHHHH!***

  Yes nugget. That's my point. Per the WTS, they are potentially being infected by adding their comments to this article, knowing good and well that there are "mentally diseased" people also commenting on it.

  I made a suggestion on page 9 of this thread about posting a reminder to faithful dubs about the society's direction regarding not posting on these types of blogs.

  Well after rereading the article in The Independent, I realized that that direction was already reposted there by the writer of the article.

  So if these apologists have read this, and are aware of it, and attended the meeting that discussed it, how can they brazenly condemn "apostates" of having their own ideas, while going contrary 'to the the things they have been taught' by responding to that article?

  My two cents. ***Confusion suddenly sets in***

  @ baltar447 - I don't think it's really old news. The elders in my hall never distribute The Watchtower study copies to the publishers in my hall. Only the KM copies.
  However, if it is old news, then 'evidently', the elders in my hall are not following the slave's direction.
