i havent gone to meetings in about 1 year and a half.
one of my neighbors who is a jw-lady told me that the co on the last visit said that its very likely that right after armageddon (which is just around the corner) the present governing body members will be in charge of the united states since they are familiar with the culture.
and that the apostles and early christians will be in charge of areas like china.
There are many JWS CO in their 80's so you expect some dementia from some of these men.
attending at the Halls swallow everything up with glowing appreciative respect. ... they've just been given new light
You said it all so clearly I wish I could go back to my neighbor and quote your words.

What about the Governing Body of the 1970s? Or the 1980s?
I have no idea.
Those guys get what antartica?

I guess the anointed ones who slacked off will get Antarctica and Alaska.

I haven’t gone to meetings in about 1 year and a half. One of

it’s very likely that right after Armageddon (Which is just around the corner) the present Governing Body members will be in

the apostles and early Christians will be in charge of areas like China. Is
this new light? Has anyone heard of this?
the syrian conflict and lack of action by the un basically proves to me the un is a failed model.. that prick bashar's army is dropping barrels bombs on schools, hospitals, killing little children etc, but russia and china with their vested geo-political interests just veto any resolution proposed by the un security council to intervene.. circa 5 years of suffering by millions of women and children living in deprivation and misery in refugee camps, with all manner of atrocities and war crimes still occurring in syria itself.
all the meanwhile this disgusting asshole bashar and his military cronies continue in power and live in luxury.. it absolutely breaks my heart and makes me sick to my stomach.
i don't give a toss about all the rationalisations and counter-arguments people may make defending the bashar regime.. as far as i'm concerned, the un security council is a broken and failed entity, a spineless, essentially corrupt model with grossly conflicting vested interests that are blockading fundamental moral and humane principles and obligations enshrined in it's charter.
And yet 8 million people believe:
Watchtower 12/9/2012
How This World Will Come to an End
A study of the book of Revelation shows that the wild beast refers to the United Nations (UN). “The ten horns” represent all present political powers that support this scarlet-colored wild beast. How devastating will the attack be? The nations of the UN will plunder the harlot’s wealth, expose her real character, devour her, and “completely burn her.” Her destruction will be final. 7. What will trigger the attack by the “wild beast”?
7 Bible prophecy also
indicates what will trigger this attack. Somehow Jehovah will put it into the
hearts of political rulers “to carry out his thought,” namely, to devastate the
harlot. Warmongering religion continues to be a disruptive
force in the world; hence, the nations may feel that destroying the harlot is
in their own national interests. In fact, when the rulers attack, they will
think that they are carrying out their own “one thought.” In reality, however,
they act as God’s tool for obliterating all false religion. Thus, in a stunning
reversal, one part of Satan’s system will attack another part, and Satan will
be powerless to prevent
i am sure that the gb does not care about the r&f jw.
it does not care about the organization collapsing overnight.. why do i say this?.
in 2013 the organization declared that the "faithful and discreet slave" consisted only of the seven member of the gb.
Some of us have come to suspect that they know it's wrong, but believe it's true at the same time.
That is the best explanation yet!
It applies to everything the members do.
They know shunning their loved one is wrong, but believe it's true at the same time.
They know letting their children, husband, and wife die for refusing a blood transfusion is wrong, but believe it's true at the same time
how low can they go?.
if i remember correctly, this is the lowest number of gb members the wt has had since the gb arrangement started.
they dont seem to be in any hurry to appoint any new gb members.
Remember that the Governing Body has to be made up of "anointed brothers." So that limits their choices.
But hasn’t the anointed been increasing? In fact almost doubling in the past 25 years
i was just pondering the other day, is it more likely that a man will leave a religion, or a woman?
is there a way to know if the men on the site outnumber the women or vice versa as to who found out ttat first and left.. im going to suggest men.
basically because men in general, do not like to be told what to do.

I don’t think I want to give my opinion.
all along the watch tower: annual convention returns next month.
cornwall seaway news.

allowed to hold micropnhes
NO!
They are only allowed to handle something that looks like a microphone.
With batteries.

How low can they go?
If I remember correctly, this is the lowest number of GB members the WT has had since the GB arrangement started. They don’t seem to be in any hurry to appoint any new GB members. They might not want any new blood that might rock the status quo. Why rock the boat with new members when you can use any of the rank and file to do your bidding. If a few more GB’s die, how many Governing Body members can the WT get away with and still function as an organization? Two, three?
