I had to create an illustration for a former non-JW workmate to show how huge this was going to be for JW's.
We worked together in a factory for years, so I asked him, "If the management suddenly announced that none of the hourly-paid workers had to clock in or out from now on, how do you think the workforce would react?"
I'm convinced the org will be forced into making further changes/announcements over the next 6 - 12 months when the effects of this "new light" really kick in.
here is what the self-appointed "faithful slave said in the watchtower july 1 1943:.
"and for company publishers he [jesus] says, ’let us make a quota of 60 hours and 12 back-calls and at least one study a week for each publisher.’ these directions come to us from the lord through his established agency directing what is required of us; and, for those who really love the lord and are guided by his counsel, that is a reasonable service requirement.
this expression of the lord’s will should be the end of all controversy.

Here is what the self-appointed "faithful slave" said 80 years later:
"Beginning November 1, 2023, congregation publishers will no longer be asked to report the amount of time they spend in the ministry. Nor will publishers be asked to report their placements, the videos they show, or return visits." (back-calls)

Yesterday's Annual Meeting "report" was soooooooooooo invigorating!
Memories:
km 1/97 p. 7 Question Box - Why should we report our field service activity promptly each month? Are you conscientious about turning in your report promptly each month?....All publishers need to appreciate their individual responsibility to turn in a field service report promptly each month.
w14
11/15 p. 16 par. 13 - "But
we have been asked to report our activity in the
ministry. So, what attitude should we have toward this arrangement?
The report we submit each month is connected
with our godly devotion....And our individual reports
become part of the total world report, which
helps the organization to plan ahead for future
Kingdom-preaching activity. So, then, is it really asking too much of
us that we report our share in the preaching
work?"
w14 11/15 - 13: Why should we report our field service activity?
w11 3/15 p. 19 - Why is it important to report field service?
w11 8/15 p. 22 - This emphasizes the importance of each publisher reporting promptly each month.
w05 6/1 p. 18 par. 13 - And how gratifying to know that our personal report is included in that worldwide report!..... Remember, without your report, the overall report would be incomplete.
w05 6/1 p. 19 - Can You Explain Why Christians - report their Christian activity in the field ministry?
km 5/13 p. 4 - 10 min: Why We Report Our Field Service. Talk by the secretary based on the Organized book, page 88, paragraph 1, to page 90, paragraph 1.
km 4/00 p. 2 - 18 min: Talk and audience discussion handled by the secretary. Explain why we report our field service activity.

"the generally accepted definition of propaganda is this: an organization for the propagation of a doctrine or system, the purpose of which is to cause the membership of the system or organization to increase or enlarge.
religious organizations engage in propaganda, because each system of religion tries to increase its membership.
the work of jehovah’s witnesses for his kingdom is entirely a different matter.
"The generally accepted definition of propaganda is this: An organization for the propagation of a doctrine or system, the purpose of which is to cause the membership of the System or organization to increase or enlarge. Religious organizations engage in propaganda, because each system of religion tries to increase its membership. The work of Jehovah’s witnesses for his kingdom is entirely a different matter. The principles of Jehovah God are fixed, and never change, and Jehovah does not put forth an effort, nor authorize any creature to put forth an effort, to increase his organization or to propagate his doctrines." (1935 Yearbook of Jehovah's Witnesses)
"the greatest religious system that exists on earth, or ever did exist on earth, is the roman catholic hierarchy, controlled by a few men and under which have been brought millions of people of honest desires.
satan has used the roman catholic hierarchy (g.b.

Satan has used the Roman Catholic hierarchy (G.B.)
to blind millions of people. They have been taught error. The
Hierarchy (G.B.)
has claimed to represent God and the Bible, and at the same time has
kept the people in ignorance
of what the Bible contains. There are millions of good, honest people
who are under the Catholic organization
that would turn to God if the eyes of their understanding were opened
to the
truth."

@ joey jojo - "The study of DNA is a huge topic and to suggest that any untrained person fully understands the whole story after watching a video for a few minutes is ridiculous."
I think it's ridiculous to suggest that anyone remotely suggested your suggestion!
Just my suggestion.
