ElderBerry...it is under section 15:
"If the individual is not an apostate or actively promoting wrongdoing, they will also inform him that they would like to meet with him again in three months to determine if he has had a change of heart. In some cases, but not all, the committee may determine that there is a basis for reinstating the individual at that time."
Unfuckingbelievable!!!

Holy Shit! Did I read that right? 90 day disfellowshipping?
we still have quite a few elderly here that came in as young families in the late 1960's-early 70's because soon, yes very soon they would enter the new system and never grow old.
it's now one year away from 50 years since 1975. just in the last couple years i've seen them come down with alzheimer's, cancer, brain tumors, becoming invalid etc.
the children of them that are now around 60 are just so distraught at seeing their parents deteriorate.
"WHY ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO 1975?" - Governing Body of JW'S
"Because YOU told us to!" - Any JW with 1 working brain cell
you heard me correct, this is not a joke, and it is not april fools day!
the asl portion of the governing body updated #2 (march 2024) has been released a bit early and someone caught it.
summary: .
jw's can now talk to disfellowshipped friends & relatives, in order to encourage them back to the k.h.
and to welcome any d/f'd ones who turn up at the k.h.. https://www.jw.borg/download/?docid=1112024005&langwritten=asl.

It's REAL! This information is now presented on JW.org in Governing Body update 2024 #2!!!
The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses past and present is made up of : FAKERS, FOOLS, FRAUDS and FUCK UPS! You will never convince me otherwise!!!!!
going door to door with their "memorial" invitation.
"so you can pass the emblems but nobody partakes?
them: "we can explain who is to partake".. me: "all jesus' followers".
NotFormer...according to the 1973 Service Report there were 10,523 partakers.

I will be 69 this year. In the past 3 years I have faced Discitis (almost killed me), a Prostate cancer scare and just a few weeks ago I was found to have a rare and dangerous abdominal aneurysm. And to think, I was told (like many here) that I'd never graduate High School in this system! To the Governing Body members that are younger than me (Fleegle, Winder, Sanderson and Cook) I say, GO FUCK YOURSELVES and your 'exercise patience' mantra! Your time will come just like every other human...no one gets out alive.
does the wt have a person/department/section tasked with compiling data and analysing it statistically.
or have they started doing something like that now that they are hiring external consultancies?.
i ask the question because i'm wondering if such studies and statistical analysis would show any link between the harshness of the disfellowshipping policy as it is applied and the dropout rate of people within the organisation who have just had enough.. in previous threads it has been pointed out that the old approach isn't effective any more.
Elmer, this scenario is not as far fetched as you might imagine. 50 years ago, the Governing Body was still a new arrangement as was the Elder arrangement. New procedures and rules were being considered and implemented and others discarded. In 1972 I was 17 and serving (I hate that word) where the need was great. I was told that if I stayed at this assignment I would be made a Ministerial Servant (pre-approved by the Service Department) and at age 19 I would be made an Elder (That appointment I was told needed to go before the Governing Body for approval but the Circuit Overseer did not see an issue). You can take SeaBreeze at their word.

how will history treat joseph rutherford?.
like ben gorden has said, it would depend on who’s looking back.
One correction, Van. Rutherford was not living alone in HIS mansion. There were two others with him:
Bonnie Boyd who was 31 years old, single and worked as a servant.
Donald Haslett who was 34 years old, married and worked as a servant.
(According to the 1930 Federal census)
(Interestingly enough, Hasletts' wife was back in Brooklyn Bethel)
Much has been written here about a possible relationship between Rutherford and Bonnie. I wouldn't put anything past him.
In the 1930 Federal census he is listed as owner of the house and as an interesting side note it was the most EXPENSIVE house in the neighborhood by far.
