God cannot lie
by psyco inthe bible does not say that god does not want to lie, but that he cannot lieĀ or it is impossible for god to lie.
.
so, if god cannot lie, for what purpose and why did he create creatures (satan, demons, humans) who can lie?.

Even with recent changes itās a struggle to get people to attend
by hoser inthe kingdom hall is still empty.
even with amalgamation of 2 congregations.
the elders are handling the microphones and there was only one comment from zoom at the watchtower.

Yeah, just sounds to me like the Orgās little temporary stopgap tactic of (over)consolidating halls to give the surface impression of higher growth/attendance is kinda working in this instance.

Essential Beliefs
by LeeMerk inif the watchtower really wants to move more mainstream they need to take a lesson from evangelicals in the united states.
they seem to say there are "essential beliefs".
a handful of core beliefs that are necessary to be considered true christians.

I just had a fucked-up ideaā¦
ā¦wouldnāt it be a kick in the ass if actual moderates on the GB were genuinely trying to use that ācore beliefāā¦
ā¦to make the transition to authentic mainstreaming more smooth?
(i.e. essentially use the slavesā obedience to free them?)

All the extra-Biblical requirements were a big part of how they distinguished themselves from āThe Worldā.
Dumping so much so fast suggests more reform attempts may be on the way, but also smacks of quiet desperation.
