Surely stepping down wouldn't be nearly enough. Any (True) guilt would move him to make a public apology to all those that taken his words to heart and obeyed them as is required by a JW.

Ray Franz was able to write a book to express his sadness for some things he did whilst a GB member.

Surely this is another example that makes a nonsense of their claimed anointed arrangement.

Supposedly they only have to remain faithful in order to retain their anointing However, if they lose Jehovah's favour, they are no longer anointed but once they regain it, they are anointed again.

If Morris was drunk many times, surely he lost his favour but since it looks like he has been removed as a GB because he has been doing something, then again, it must go hand in hand that he has also lost Jehovah's favour.

Since these dudes are supposed to know, beyond doubt, that they have the anointing, then they would also know that they have lost this anointing whilst they are sinning.

This would mean that Morris was acting in the role of GB when he fully new he was not entitled to do so. Surely masquerading as an anointed before millions would be far more serious than the sin.

Of course I am glad you are okay Vintage. It was nice of you to let us know you were okay so quickly.

I've never been through a really bad storm although the weather reporters are constantly promising us one. (They exaggerate to the extreme). We had thundering, lightening and even rain for the first time in a couple of months last night.

A few years ago we drove for a couple of hours just after a bad storm on the Great Ocean Road in Victoria with fallen trees/branches/rock slides. It was scarier than a theme park ride.

The Watchtower is one weird organisation.

We aren't talking about an Elder or a MS, this was an individual given the highest position in the organisation, one that every JW has been told to be obedient to and to trust.

He is now no longer a part of the FDS that Jesus appointed and the organisation can't be bothered to say whether he was stood down due to disciplinary action, being prompted or for personal reasons. Why? They can hardly claim that it's nobody's business. They can't claim they are being discreet about it since it affects the faithfulness of all JW followers, every one of them.

Do they understand that there is a big difference between speculation and rumours? They would like JWs to consider them to be the same thing in situations like this but they are not. The speculation will continue and now, it won't be Morris that looks like the clown, it will be the rest of the GB and the Watchtower.

for the PIMO question as to A. Morris

by enoughisenough in

have the rank and file been told not to "gossip", or "question" about mr morris yet?

i am mindful of how questioning decisions was discouraged and being told to keep things confidential.

( maybe too soon, but do share if a special needs part comes up) you would think that common sense would tell them they cause the questions when they don't share reasons.

Listener

A topic entitled "How can I stop the gossip" is on the front page of JW org currently.

May 23 Watchtower

study article 22 is headed.

"keep traveling on the "way of holiness".

this article states that since 1919, having left babylon the great in that year, jws today are traveling on 'the way of holiness" (a figurative highway) as it takes them through the spiritual paradise and leads them through to future kingdom blessings.. they say that 'preparatory work' of that highway began centuries earlier.

Smiddy - You would think that those who proclaim to be his witnesses would get the pronunciation of his name correct wouldn`t you ?

Definately, their 'maintenance work' is substandard and slower than the council roadworkers in Australia.

It's taken them 87 years to explain the seriousness of viewing abhorrent pornography (which includes child porn)
