"Jehovah's people are most blessed on the Earth." (This one made the inner 14 year old boy in me giggle. They are most blessed on the Earth. As opposed to Uranus?)
"The light is definitely getting brighter."

first of all, big "thank you's" to everyone who put up the goods after attending!
why im disgusted.
the new bible (no, it doesnt have a new name, for all who are asking) is a huge f**king monstrosity!
There's been a lot of excitement kicked up over this newly, improved Watchtower Corp Bible. Will it bring any of us "back to the truth?"
this just in from the annual meeting: a new release of the new, improved new world translation of the holy scriptures.

Oubliette - I agree! The light gray is UGLY. What WERE they thinking?
as predicted by jwn loose conduct has been replaced by brazen conduct.
galations 5:19 2 peter 2:2 .
a catch all phrase for apostates.
slimboy - if someone is "loose" that is often used sexually. Loose conduct (to me) indicates that they are sexually 'loose' FWIW. And good for them, I say!

prologos - FUNNY!
anyone actually go what was said and details on the new release..
There has been so much written here on that topic yesterday and today. We've been talking about it almost non-stop. Everyone seems to have had something to say...even JWNers who aren't interested in the topic have piped up to say they aren't interested and couldn't give a rat's a*&.
the annual meeting seems to boil down to an opening talk about an "exciting new" bible museum and a closing talk about an "exciting new" new world translation.
sandwiched in between were the wt summary, a talk about indoctrinating the children fast/furious, and some "trip down memory lane.".
why would this "spiritual feast" seem to be anticlimactic?
Billy, you wrote: " After a rather stressful week, this has been a valuable reminder that I've made the right decision to get far away from WT."
Was this ever in doubt this week? Hope you are ok, man. There's NO question whatsoever that getting out of the WT Corporation was the right thing to do. It's hard to believe you could or would doubt this at this point which leads me to think that I probably misinterpreted what you wrote though.
the new [revised] nwt (n-nwt) apparently has simplified, contemporary language that can be understood by the people of today (with 13% less clutter, and fewer references to kidneys) who are now contemporaries of the 1914 generation.
i can only imagine some of the newly revised passages (starting with a conversation between adam and eve after the big oopsie).i know the pdf version will be online soon.
i do wonder about the full searchable version on jw.org and when that will go live.
Awesome posts, gentlemen. The ridiculousness of all of this is clearly not lost on our community here at JWN. Too bad so many of those still in can't see it all for what it is.
I cry for you Argentina.

i will be receiving calls from folks over the next couple days or seeing crap on facebook.
the key to pulling this off will involve being 100% serious and believing it yourself.. plan - make a big big deal over the new light that the end will occur in this millenium, and immediately point out that this is huge news as a date hasn't been pushed since 1975.. .
why - first off you use this as a way to bring in 1975 and tarnish the agm with that debacle.
Ha!
