  Was it Designed?

  the jw website is currently featuring a piece: the shell of the diabolical ironclad beetle​—was it designed?

  it is part of their regular tedious 'was it designed?

  ' series that purports that very very specific animal species must have been specifically designed because of some seemingly amazing feature.. but they seem completely unaware that this directly contradicts their notion that only very broad 'kinds' were required on the mythical 'ark'.

  @ truthteller…

  If what redsetter2 has suggested in older Reddit posts are indeed accurate (and I’m understanding it correctly)…

  …they actually half-expect the CSA legal landslide to shut the Org down…

  …either triggering Armageddon, and God bailing them out…

  …or erasing them forever.

  Halcon - “…It's ironic that JW members will eventually have to believe what more or less all other religions believe…”

  And once you’ve gotten to that point, where’s the incentive to stay?

  Doubling down vs. easing up on blood will entirely depend on which course of action will give them the most (or least) legal and financial trouble.

  Halcon - “…this type of announcement comes across as showing JW as being very dependent on actual effort by the members…”

  Good catch. 👍

  And, IMO, reinforces a couple suspicions I’ve had for a while…

  …that there might be a lot more PIMOs than anybody thought (as strongly suggested by Covid/Zoom)…

  …but more importantly…

  …the Org leadership and loyalists truly cannot grasp that PIMOs genuinely no longer believe the WTS has “The Truth”.

  ’Cause if that weren’t the case, there’d likely be an uptick in activity.

  Are JWs becoming more militant?

  after their courtcase in norway going wrong, splane actually warns lawmakers that they will be in big trouble if they don't change their ways.

  he's referring to the preaching work, which has nothing to do with the case.

  it's all about their treatment of ex-jws.

  Prediction: no more changes for a long while

  by slimboyfat in

  i’ve noticed a pattern where things don’t go the way i expect them to go and/or whenever i realise there is a trend and, i mentally adjust for the idea that the trend will continue, the trend stops in its tracks.

  so on that basis, and given many people, including myself, and active jws, have been asking ‘what changes will the governing body make next?’ perhaps the (disappointing) answer is: ‘nothing much for a while to come’.

  maybe they’ve made the changes they want for now, and will wait a while and see how it’s received.

  @ slimboyfat…

  Sure, but…

  …they only started utilizing those innovations long after they’d already become regular public use.

  IMO, if they’d been truly “dynamic”, they’d have been first out of the gate.

  According to insiders, the Org itself is half-expecting it.
