Seriously, though…
…if that’s really the case, I can’t help but wonder just how much the GB’s “Old Guard” is fuming that the GB’s “New Liters” are essentially capitulating to the trend, instead of cracking the whip like the old days.
😁
even elders can be part of the new jw lite brigade these days.
they don’t need to go on door to door anymore and there is no requirement for anything really.. taking meeting parts is all dead easy you could turn up on the day with zero preparation because it’s all in the meeting workbook.. quarterly elders meetings are just old men having a good old natter just like old men do down the pub.. congregations could be likened to pubs or bars these days just without the drinks, those come at other times.. no need for territory maps, these almost went away with covid letter writing now they are extremely slow getting finished as those who still go door to door only do ten mins.. you could even voice your questions these days about things the gb say and then just say “we can’t be dogmatic we just don’t know”.
i predict they will say this about 1914 soon..

ElderBerry - “…JWLITE is actually happening in real time…”
We just have a name for it, now. 😏
for those interested in the latest version of the faithful slave.

from the february 2024 watchtower .
NotFormer - “…Perhaps they fear assassination attempts if they all meet together at the same time… Not being serious, BTW.”
Thing of it is…
…I can actually imagine some of the more deluded Old Guard thinking this.
Jaracz used to stoke fears of a “Vast Apostate Army”.
are the governing body really in charge or are they just a figurehead with the real power being behind the curtain .
They know it’s wrong…

notsurewheretogo - “…the GB are simply trapped in believing they are chosen…”

can anyone reveal the "mothership's" income/expenditure stats for any recent year?.
in the uk, charities must be transparent and publish their annual financial information, but in the u.s. it's not so clear..
Or they just can’t afford to pay back Caesar’s things to Caesar.

More and more of us suspect their business model is dependent on it.

hoser - “…They patted their backs about how Zoom was a blessing from Jehovah…”
”Everything we do is a blessing from God! Even the stuff we came up with ourselves!”
”Everything is proof we’re right! Even the stuff that contradicts the other stuff!”
”Everything bad you hear about us is false! Even the stuff that’s true!”

Wouldn’t have been quicker, cheaper, and easier just to take a new photo?
This smacks of overkill. 🤨
