  Do COs and Branch Officials Have A Rulebook?

  by NotFormer in

  elders have a rulebook.

  do cos and their superiors have a similar written set of guidelines setting out everything they're supposed to be on top of?.

  what prompted the question was a statement by jehovax that there is a new elders manual coming out due to the new changes.

  Wait, you’re saying all those guys are really just one person?

  If that were the case, wouldn’t Simon do something about it?

  the following is an excerpt from one of aesop's fables.. the boy who cried "wolf"!.

  there once was a shepherd boy who was bored as he sat on the hillside watching the village sheep.

  to amuse himself he took a great breath and sang out, "wolf!

  redsetter2 - “…By minimising persecution and legal issues through devious methods such as this, the Watchtower Organization deliberately attempts to keep itself alive…”

  Paradoxical that it fights so hard to survive…

  …yet sometimes seems like it’s expecting - even setting itself up for - an epic fall.

  while having my first strong black coffee of the day, i was thinking about what may be to come next as the org.

  rapidly goes mainstream, and this is what i came up with :.

  1) they will introduce for sunday, the after meeting fellowship, a time for just chatting but with the added bonus of coffee and snacks.

  Jaracz’s legacy again.

  Goddamn, that prick left a mess.

  now that some reasonably big changes have occurred in a short time frame, whats next?

  will the gb let the dust settle for a bit, or will they keep dropping bombs this year?.

  iloowy.goowy - “They did warn about not freaking out about decisions which would seem ridonkulous from a human perspective…”

  Thing is…

  …these changes are, arguably, sensible from a “human perspective”.

  It’s from an ideological standpoint that the rank-and-file are having a tough time wrapping their heads around it.

  If the org. Is being advised by consultants, is a name change in the works?

  let's be honest, there's a stigma to the name jehovah's witness.

  if they are going more mainstream.

  i imagine the first recommendation was a name change.

  Theres’s no way the consultants came up with the overlappers… it would’ve been way before their time, anyway.

  I’m talking about the recent “mainstreaming”…

  …dropping time-counting, beards, pants suits, 90-day probationary DFing, that kind of stuff.

  Some women find it a turn-on.

  For some guys, that’s all the reason they need.

  stan livedeath - “why did the org pay an outside consultancy (if true) to show them where they have gone wrong?...we could have shown them-for free.”

  Oh, oh, I just thought of something…

  …wouldn’t it be a mind-fuck of the highest order if these consultants actually got all their ideas simply from perusing JWD???

  We’re “apostates”…

  …we’re the ones who are “wrong”.

  Haven't you been paying attention?

  It takes a bitch-slap from “Satan’s World” to help ‘em realize “God’s Way” has changed up?
