Ever-changing teachings of Jehovah's Witnesses - probably the most comprehensive compendium about Watchtower doctrinal changes
by WTS Archive intwo days ago a new book was released for download, called "ever-changing teachings of jehovah's witnesses".
it was originally written by a polish jw scholar (who never was a jw himself) włodzimierz bednarski, with a help from szymon matusiak, who was a jw and an elder, and is a result of years of labourious work to compile quotes regarding every single doctrine the book describes.
it covers the most important changes in years 1879—2015.

Did they ever change their stance about evolution? If you have any supporting evidence about that let me know, and I'll forward it to the author.

Two days ago a new book was released for download, called "Ever-changing teachings of Jehovah's Witnesses". It was originally written by a Polish JW scholar (who never was a JW himself) Włodzimierz Bednarski, with a help from Szymon Matusiak, who was a JW and an elder, and is a result of years of labourious work to compile quotes regarding every single doctrine the book describes. It covers the most important changes in years 1879—2015. It can be an invaluable resource for talking with still-in relatives and friends, to show them the extent of changes not only in the first years of Bible Students movement, but also those made recently. Especially when they were changing doctrines back-and-forth.
I hope you'll like it!

They do make changes silently. It's not very frequent, but I have examples of them doing that. Even in this new WT Library 2015 there are a handful publications that were changed since 2014, with no information from them what specifically did change. -

Multilanguage? It says "english" on the disc. Unless it's english + few others that are common in the US. -

Does anyone have the original copy of the Awake 2015 Jan before it was changed?
by jwfacts injan used a famous scientist to garner misleading support for creation, quoting rama singh as saying "the opposition to evolution goes beyond religious fundamentalism and includes a great many people from educated sections of the population.
2015 jan p.3) whilst the quote is accurate, it misrepresents singh's intention.
singh continues in the same paragraph, "there are several reasons why facts of evolution are not easily comprehensible by the general masses.

It's also funny that they forgot to remove the quote from the audio version. Go to the article:
https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/g201501/evolution-vs-creation/
And press play on the audio player below the article title. You can skip to 0:30 sec mark. The quote will still be read, even though it's absent from the article text :).
PS. They did remove it from the polish language editions, but also - except the audio recording, which still contains it.

Thanks wifi for the outlines! There are few minor changes in the memorial outline since last year:
- New opening and closing songs: 147 & 149 instead of 8 & 109
- "delivered" (in context of ransom) changed to "rescued"
- the Lord "arrives" changed to the Lord "comes"

Steven Lett asks for money again
by Gorbatchov inthe 2016 january tv.jw.org broadcasting has a clear message: jw.org needs more money!.
the 2 months of donation increase is not enough: the thousands of projects are not a 2 month project.. so: thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you (heh heh heh) and send us more!
personal conclusion: if i had any doubts that the society is sincere, this openly money grabbing has made my perception complete.

@OneEyedJoe
I'm not going to watch it...but for those that did - did Lett remove his rolex or rings for this one like he did the last time? I think I remember that he removed his rolex last time, but if the image above is from this month's begging session it looks like he may have not only removed the rolex but the infamous pinky ring as well.
He still wears a watch but it's barely visible and probably not gold. But he DID remove his big-ass gold pinky ring, as he did in May, so I think that's on purpose. Especially because he does wear it on other videos he's starring in.

There's one paragraph missing in the US version of this letter, 4th paragraph on page 2 (about estimating the quantity and requesting brochures).
