It is said that A.H. MacMillan was in line to be the Society's president after Judge Rutherford's passing, but he declined - what is the proper term - the nomination? There was no G.B. per se in those days, even though the Organization today hints that there was, but the Presidency was the most powerful position in the Organization.

On another thread Sir82 said,
Don't worry, before sunset there will be about a thousand sites with copies available for download.
Amazing. Available for all to download on the very day of it's release!
I'm thinking that to get this scanned, every page, and posted, someone had to have had it in their possession long enough to do the work ahead of time. It's as if the leakers are one step ahead of the Organization!

Child Sexual Abuse: The Organization Oozes Self-Congratulations over Non-JWs Tireless Work
by steve2 inwow - the may watchtower study edition is out.
who could have anticipated entire watchtower study articles devoted to child sexual abuse?
an appreciative shout out to all the people who worked tirelessly over so very many, many years to call the organization to account over its defiantly self-serving policies and practices on responding top allegations of child sexual abuse.

Jehovah's Witnesses Called At My Door
by Roger Kirkpatrick inlast saturday morning, i answered a knock at my door to see a man standing next to a young boy who handed me a pamphlet posing the question, "how do you view the bible?
would you say it is (1) a book of human wisdom?
(2) a book of myths and legends?

Great information, but unlikely scenario. (Wasanelder Once)
I had the same feeling. It sure seemed smooth, very smooth...
- the OP remembering exactly where to turn in the KIngdom Interlinear Translation (p 23).
- remembering the name of the Catholic monk who devised the pronunciation of 'Jehovah' and the year he did it (Raymundus Martinti in 1270)
- knowing instantly which scriptures to turn to (Eph 4:4, Luke 1:19, Rev 7:15)
- having the presence of mind to work Bob Dylan and The Beatles into an illustration.
Most of us would have to have pre-studied carefully or used detailed notes to present this. Oh well, maybe the OP has a photographic memory that is called into action when there is an unexpected knock on the door.
It actually reminded me of some of the experiences presented by Watchtower in the publications, which are often just to much to take literally, even though they are much less detailed than this.

Often, those of us who were raised JW...assume no one but JW"s have moral standards. Some even assume that once you're not a JW, you automatically have to run out and start living some debauched lifestyle and they get themselves into some serious trouble...
Nicely said and absolutely true.
JWs are supposed to think that if you leave the Organization your life will descend into drug abuse, alcoholism, or some perverted life style. Generated by Watchtower it's a complete myth, by design, because it's a one of the hooks that keeps you following a man-made religion.

“Cherished Errors”
I've not heard that one before. It's really a way of saying JWs cherish their false teachings.
Half Banana, that's a very good explanation of 'bouquet of truth.'
It's a fitting expression of JWs temporary and fleeting kind of 'truth,' it's here today and gone tomorrow, then it becomes a 'cherished error' and we move on to another lie dressed up as some pretty thing that is designed to mislead those who fail to think.

In the language of Jehovah's Witnesses,
Bouquet of Truth = Garbage Heap of Lies.
