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.
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???

LongHairGal - “…I also have to laugh at some of the suggestions here and elsewhere - whether they are made in jest or in all seriousness…”
When you can’t tell…
…that’s Poe’s Law doin’ its thing.

We’re “apostates”…
…we’re the ones who are “wrong”.
Haven't you been paying attention?

LongHairGal - “…They are probably propping up the religion…”
With what? Pensions and duct tape?
Trust me, most senior citizens are barely scraping by…
…propping up a floundering church ain’t high on their to-do list.

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?.
I would prefer “we will no longer make you feel like hammered shit just for being yourselves”.
i am thinking that the "ten year plan" that some have spoken of is the most likely scenario.

Fair point.
How many would truly want to stay if they didn’t have to, though?
’Specially if the premise of “God’s Exclusive Earthly Organization” - the main reason they’re compelled to stay - has become so undermined by mainstream reforms that it’s virtually nonexistent.
