Around here it all depends on how much the WT conductor wants to talk about it. Which they always glaze over or ignore the important parts like this and no one thinks twice about it.

Today's W.T on GB not being inspired is having ZERO impact on most J.W's
by Isambard Crater inthe congregation i attend had it's watchtower study on thursday night because of l.d.c work this week-end, and another congregation i have some not very spiritual friends in had their watchtower study on wednesday.
from what i have delicately prised out of people, the congregations loved the watchtower study this week, saying it was so encouraging and all the usual stuff, with no-one seeming to realise the g.b.
said they're not inspired, so the spirit int he past has moved them to teach wrong things, and all the other ideas excellently summed up on reddit.. today's watchtower will wash over the heads of most j.w's like it never even happened, the all remaining as loyal as ever, and it makes me so, so sad..

One comment and went like this.... One has a messy hair style, the other a weird haircut, they are wearing tight pants and high waters (everyone chuckled).
I saw nothing wrong with anyone in the photo. Big deal they have different styles.

I like how the website has pics of a Tavern and Ale house. Clearly very "worldly" where low life degenerates would hang out. In our area we get in trouble for stepping foot in a bar. But i guess if it sells real estate, the big J is ok with it.

Were You Ever Disfellowshipped or Judicially Reproved?
by minimus ini never got into trouble with the elders.
i served on judicial committees too many times.
i am happy that i no longer have to "judge" whether someone is a "sinner" any longer!

reproved once, df'd once. The judicial meeting was 4 hours long for both the reproof and the df. To get reinstated it took 2 years, 3 letters, and a half hour meeting, 3 hour meeting and another 3 hour meeting. Crazy bastards.

Was talking to a couple family members that brought this up today. (and i only knew about it from this site ha). They hadn't written their letters yet and didn't know if they were going to because the deadline is April 5th when Putin decides supposedly and their letters wouldn't get there in time. I told them no one is going to even care about the letters or be able to read them since they will be in English. Crazy that people are doing this.

More evidence beards are being eased in . . .
by neat blue dog inthe june 2017 watchtower tells the experience of a bible student who was homeless and unkempt, but improved his appearance after being preached to.. peter began to change.
he bathed, neatlytrimmed his beard, and put on the betterclothes that don offered him.
peter continued to maintain a clean appearance.. so here we see that with a neatly trimmed beard the watchtower's writers view him as having "a clean appearance".

I just wear a beard and don't care what anyone else thinks. Got a lot of grief about it at first, but people have gotten used to it. Still doesn't persuade anyone else to grow one though.
