on the 100th anniversary of coca-cola, the company's marketing division made a bold move.. trends in the sales of coke were headed in the wrong direction.
competitors were eating away.
at the soft drink market once dominated by coca-cola.
If I was still a Jehovah's Witness, I would love the change to JW. It was always embarrassing to say the name of my religion.
I would have loved to have this conversation instead of what I had to endure:
Who, me? Ah yes, I am a Christian just like you, in fact I am a JW. Have you seen our website? JW.org. Check it out. Bye bye now...

Great analogy Terry. You should be teaching marketing. In fact, the Watchtower transition is a great case study for a marketing class. I am fascinated by this whole process.
I agree with everything you say. But keep in mind that Coke still remains. Its market share has not change substantially despite all these blunders.
Moral of the story: Diehards are diehards. If the society said that purple is green, diehards will change their view to accommodate the society.

First time I saw, thanks for posting. Very sad.
It is turning into two separate religions - one for public consumption and the other for internal followers. The internal piece has not changed.
Why is the set in Brooklyn Heights and all that property is up for sale? That makes little sense.
The article made me very uncomfortable. What I initially expressed, and restated by Flipper, was my understanding that this is more than wet dream. I have had many less than saintly thoughts, but I never thought that I needed help. The number afflicted seems higher that I realized, and as we know not all people are able to keep their demons at bay. Feeling sorry for these people is an emotion that I have little interest in; however, I don’t suggest I have an answer.
The New York Times has this Op-Ed piece in today's paper:
http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/06/opinion/pedophilia-a-disorder-not-a-crime.html?ref=opinion
I found it rather disturbing. If you take at face value what is suggested, I can see how organizations like the Watchtower become a popular hiding spot for pedophiles.
during the public discourse today the brobot talked about the gog of magog, and he stated that he was satan!!!
i had to ask my wife if i heard him correctly, and she said yes he said it is satan.... i couldnt wait to run up to the brobot after the meeting and inform him of he "new light" we just recieved yesterday!!!
when i approached him i asked him : what is gog of magog?
Even as a diehard JW the whole discussion of Gog of Megog bored me silly.
I never understood what we believed, so I guess a change is not that tramatic.
anybody going or who can give us the noolite hot from the gb a$$?.

Starting January 2015 a new part on the service meeting entitled “How Do You Know The Truth” will replace local needs, in which approved members of the congregation will be invited to share their experiences
Even if that is successful, it is self limiting. You can find maybe 4 or 5 interesting experiences. What are you going to do after that?
