I just had a fucked-up idea…
…wouldn’t it be a kick in the ass if actual moderates on the GB were genuinely trying to use that “core belief”…
…to make the transition to authentic mainstreaming more smooth?
(i.e. essentially use the slaves’ obedience to free them?)

Even with recent changes it’s 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.

“Wait…
…we can stay home, not have to knock on doors, not count time…
…and grow facial hair???”

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

They want almost completely mainstream…
…and shattered into a bazillion pieces.
Hardly anyone even remembers Herbert Armstrong, anymore.
I guarantee you the Org was watching and taking notes.

Diogenesister - “…I - like Paul Grundy of JWfacts.com - always imagined Geoff Jackson would be the GB member most likely to turn on Watchtower policy… Sadly seeing him be so disingenuous at the Australian Royal Comission scuppered any such hope pretty fast.”
Maybe he was being sneaky.
He comes back to Warwick, exchanges congratulatory high-fives with the rest of the crew for his next-level weasel-wording (‘cause, jeezus, it was)…
…whilst all along, privately smug about how he pulled one over on ‘em, snuck in a surprising nugget of honesty, and helped a handful more see through the horseshit.

Almost makes you wonder if the beard thing isn’t just a tug on the leash…
…but maybe, just maybe, some of these guys are simply realizing, “hey, brothers, this is a stupid-ass rule”.

DesirousOfChange - “I think he looks a hell of a lot better with the beard.”
Agreed, surprisingly.
A lucky break if he drew the short straw.
Maybe that’s the reason for the switch-up…
…these guys finally figured out they needed to look halfway decent on JWTV.

Ding - “…Sometimes think the GB and WT writers don't bother to check what the WT has said before, probably because they know the vast majority of JWs will simply believe the latest ‘light’ and forget they ever said anything different…”
A simpler explanation is that, after a fucking century of consistently inconsistent Old Light, they don’t have the time or manpower to properly wade through and vet the material.
