"It's kind of like saying, "I have sinned" but never admitting to anything specific" That's exactly what they done. Like rank and file they shouldn't get a pass. They should go out and be specific about what they done.

"The Governing Body is neither inspired nor infallible. Therefore, it can err in doctrinal matters or in organizational direction".
I know this subject been talked about before. Most seem too think it's about errors in new light. But the more I think about what they wrote, it's seems they addressing much bigger issues.
"The Governing Body is neither inspired nor infallible. Therefore, it can err in doctrinal matters( Doctrine (from Latin: doctrina, meaning "teaching, instruction") is a codification of beliefs or a body of teachings or instructions, taught principles or positions, as the essence of teachings in a given branch of knowledge or in a belief system. DOGMA)] or in organizational direction(what the organization wants to be in the future)". One thing if they said hundred years ago they went wrong direction. But now they basically admitting is over for org. Sure they are to proud too say what mistakes. But this is the closest that watchtower gonna go admitting they mess things up.

Haven't never understood how you gonna run to Kingdom Hall. Or contact people in your congregation, when Jesus said there wouldn't be time to climb down from roof. Neither time to go home to get clothes.
Matthew 24: 15 “So when you see standing in the holy place ‘the abomination that causes desolation,’[a] spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand— 16 then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17 Let no one on the housetop go down to take anything out of the house. 18 Let no one in the field go back to get their cloak. 19 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 20 Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath. 21 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again.

Dang Wow didn't know how fast rumors spread in JW land. Someone heard from long time prominent JWs that Tony was in car accident. Other from bethelits that he was removed from bethel. Others that he was still in. Other bethelits said that he was sick and hade to abandon Bethel. Wonder what rumours going around me now that I don't attend meetings 😂

Closer to family? Thought his closest family was in bethel. Best medical care and pampering would be in bethel, we're GB treated like royalty. Not being taken care at home but elderly wife. And why put burden on family taking care of you, if it's guaranteed bethel gonna take care of you, especially being sick GB member. Why abandon Bethel at old age if you don't have too. Don't believe he left cause age and health. We probably never know what happened. But with removing talks he made, feels like watchtower sending message he was involved in wrong doings.

Read same article back in the 80s. It's an old article. Inner rooms could " maeby" be congregations. That was written longe before halls started being sold. They must do update on article they study. The idea was everyone was gonna hide local Hall. But many are sold.

Who cares anymore really. They just want to put a title too someone that gonna push play in the meetings. It's all videos and information a child can understand. They could have elders in their teens or wearing dippers. Don't think it's gonna raise or lower quality of org at this point. Or why don't have AI robot as elders? Yeah that gonna least show org Is moving forward with development.

Joined an online meeting incognito
by joey jojo ingot a link for a zoom meeting and thought id share my experience about the mid-week meeting.. guessing about 100 - 120 in cong.. 50 on zoom, only 8 with cameras on - all elderly.
watching from a detached point of view it's so obvious at how it is nothing but a glorified sales meeting, all designed to promote the org.
inspirational videos about how everyone can/ should do more to help with projects, in particular how to look after the kingdom hall, complete with bar charts showing levels of achievement to aspire to.. interestingly, tonights book study is about alcohol..

In western world there's not coming in people from territory. Most that attend meetings are older. Many of them won't be alive in ten years. Plus all young abandoning org. I think I'm ten years in the western world half of JWs be gone from org cause different reasons ( Die Old age, inactive, DF, just drop of).

Hellothere
I remember when we went out door to door in groups years ago. No body was home. But saw how people kept passing the JWs on the Street. No JW stopped and gave this people a brochure or something. After one hour conductor said it was time to stop, cause noone was home. But I counted about 25 people hade passed by street we were working. I realised that most JWs out with us in service actually don't wanna meet anyone. It's like meeting attendance. You go so other members in congregation see your doing something. Effective Witnessing was out of question.
