i am sure we were all shocked at the governing body update #2 with the unusual and impulsive changes set forth.. i am an insider at whq, and when i was on reddit and in communication with avoidjw i explained to the best of my ability that the approach on disfellowshipping was going to change based on the new light at the 2023 agm, that the jubilee rumor was false, and there were going to be changes on how jws approached disfellowshipping in response to the norway situation if it didn't turn out in watchtower's favor.
the decision came because of a legal blow to watchtower, not because "holy spirit" wad directing a faithful slave, who is going to become the "evil slave", more explanation on this soon.. everything i stated came true.
i left reddit exjw community due to the immature and mentally unstable nature there, and yet as has been the case my words came true.
Blood transfusions will not be considered a conscience matter, in fact it will be back to how it used to be, instead they will reverse their opinions on using transfusion alternatives with blood fractions.
Redsetter2...are you saying WT will relax & soften its views on the Blood doctrine or will they dig their heals in & take the hardliner 'No Blood Transfusion Means No Blood Whatsoever' view?

Mark my words, the bridge is coming down, and it's crumbling more quickly than it ever has done.
Yes I agree with the above assessment that WT is collapsing. It's happening as we speak. Worse yet...WT does not have the luxury of high membership numbers...8 million rank & file is an insignificant number considering that a good percentage of those 8 mil are already inactive or otherwise PIMO. By 2034 my guess is that number will greatly be reduced to about 4 million from 8 million.
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.
Funny thing...throughout Mark Sanderson's 20 minute talk on all these 'new' changes, not once does he reference Proverbs 4:18 as they've done hundreds of times before as new light from 'Jehovah'. He uses the expression 'clearer understanding'. I wonder if they've finally wised-up & realized the context of Proverbs 4:18 has nothing to do with new religious, organizational teachings and understandings.
you heard me correct, this is not a joke, and it is not april fools day!
the asl portion of the governing body updated #2 (march 2024) has been released a bit early and someone caught it.

As of recently:
It's okay for JW men/brothers to sport beards. They don't need to wear suits, ties or coats to Kingdom Hall meetings, field service, assemblies and conventions. And it's okay for JW sisters/women to wear pants to Kingdom Hall meetings, field service, assemblies and conventions.
Someone has the JW Governing Body by the nuts...by the balls and they're squeezing...they have a really strong grip...the question is who???

What does the captain do first when he determines his ship is sinking? He gives orders to jettison the cargo & other items that are weighing down the ship.
The GB of WTBTS are giving orders to the rank & file to jettison...get rid of unbiblical doctrines and teachings that are causing the Organization to implode/sink.
In the past many captains of sinking ships have made the mistake of not acting quick enough. Such is the case with the JW Governing Body...too little too late! Reversing their stance on long held harsh unbiblical beliefs today will not stop the inevitable...the sinking of the WTBTS...Yay!
one theory why tony was booted out was because he was a stickler for not changing the shunning doctrine.
he actually said the words we will never ever change it.. they are slowly deleting all of tony’s videos and now losing court cases and losing government hand outs in places like norway.. it’s looking very likely they will release new light on shunning policy after losing this latest one in norway.. .
what are the odds they coincidentally get new light from jehovah and lighten up their shunning policy ?.
So who cares where they (PIMOs) go?
WT should care where PIMOs go! After all...a very significant percentage of JWs are actually either PIMOs or PIMOs in the making. It's anyone's guess but likely the amount of JWs who are irritated and annoyed with WT's GB Leadership may be quite high.

Barbara Anderson & Steven Unthank...two 'big-thorns-in-the-side' of The WTBTS...yah, I'll be watching!👍
i used to be here a lot.
every single day almost.
and then i wasn't.. well let's start with a before.
Lady Lee...you are one hell of a survivor! Best wishes to good health & long life girl.
the pennsylvania supreme court memorandum opinion that i posted on this discussion board yesterday was confusing enough for me to ask attorney irwin zalkin to explain the issues.
he promptly replied and gave me permission to post here the following important information that he provided.. "the pennsylvania supreme court memorandum opinion raises the question of whether jehovah’s witnesses (“jw’s”) elders, who are volunteer clergy, fall under an exception to the mandatory reporting law of the state of pennsylvania.
jw’s members of the ivy hill congregation of jw’s sued the pa department of human services (dhs) and asked the court to issue a judgment that as a matter of law makes jw’s elders exempt from pa’s mandatory reporting of known or suspected child abuse, including child sexual abuse.
Thank you Barbara & Co for posting on this forum Sir. Zalkin's reply to you. It's a big plus having someone like yourself here on this forum who has such connections...much appreciated!
