Seems like all the hardline stances they held up as “proof” they alone had the Truth are up for review.
Like I’ve said before, though…
…water it down this much, and where’s the incentive to even be a JW?

long island business news.
march 4, 2024. the christian congregation of jehovah’s witnesses, which bought the former geico property in woodbury for $27 million in dec. 2022, plans to spend at least another $23 million to build an assembly hall and two support buildings on about half of the site.
Not the GB specifically, BTW… current WT dogma has them being raptured taken away prior to Armageddon starting, to lead the Heavenly armies against the wicked Worldly hordes (😒)…
…but that is essentially what they’ve said, distilled down to its simplest expression; that the Warwick compound and its outlying facilities will be used post-apocalypse to act as steward in the New System (and witness to/convert the newly-resurrected)…
…i.e. rule the planet.
‘Course, all that’s up in the air these days, as they seem to be rewriting WT theology on the fly, so who the fuck knows? 😏

Theodore Jaracz’s legacy.
i know of a lovely old sister who has been a jw for several decades now who openly expresses doubts about jw interpretations.. she does it in such a lovely way and everyone loves her.
she is such a sweet old soul, makes everyone happy around her.. she has said things like- even if we have got it wrong about this and that i still believe the bible is gods word”.
she answers up regularly and she goes on ministry groups but like most of us she is definitely jwlite, we don’t really do door to door work anymore.
@ Elena…
For all intents and purposes? Yeah.
