I bet there's gonna be "new light" pretty soon. The problem is resources, new material is practically inexistent. So, downsizing, a.k.a. simplification. Let's say no more pounding apathetic neighborhoods, better an emphasis in living a Christian exemplary life ... (like the midweek meeting). And leave the preaching for special campaigns once other month...

"This Good news Of The Kingdom Will Be Preached In All The Inhabited Earth" ........
by smiddy3 in..".for a witness to all the nations and then the end will come" .matt.24:14.. the religion of jehovah`s witnesses kid themselves into thinking they are filling or have fulfilled this prophecy/scripture .. given that you take the jehovah`s witnesses and the international bible students association as one and the same religion , then they have been preaching their message primarily within lands that are predominantly christian based.....and certainly do not cover "all the inhabited earth " as their are many populous non christian nations nations that do not allow, even forbid any proselytizing in their lands.
i would estimate about one third of the current world population.. but that is not all .. given that you take the jehovah`s witnesses and the international bible students association as one and the same religion ,then they have about 140 years of preaching their beliefs to the public specifically to preach "this good news of the kingdom " as they claim to do in obedience to j.c.commands at matt.24:14.. take a survey no matter where you live on this planet earth of the people in your locality and if you asked them "what was the message jehovah`s witnesses left you and no one would be able to say "they told me about and explained to me the good news of the kingdom" and what it would mean to me.. no one would be able to say that .after 140 years of preaching and witnessing by what is now 8 million plus jehovah`s witnesses .. what a waste of time and energy and lives .. after 140 years of preaching what do the public know about jehovah`s witnesses ?.
they don`t take blood transfusions .

Separating children at the border....
by mikeflood ini mean, the law about separating children from their fathers crossing southern us border have been in the books since before obama's era.
the thing is that enforcing that law it has become a public relations disaster for the trump administration.
there's also to much animosity in latin america too, remember the classic agitator "u.s. is the evil empire that treat us badly just to see always their own interests".

And all this mess, for free.

Probably not too much... Catholics for example practice excommunication for really serious offenses....the only thing is that without widespread shunning like in in JW land, there would be there a lot more of dissent....exactly the way they don't like it.

Leaked videos - Why?
by NewYork44M inthank you to those that have passed on "leaked" videos.
one point that i have not seen discussed is "why" apostates are getting these videos.. are videos getting out because of a lack of internal controls, or are there more than a few disloyal insiders that are more than happy to pass on inside information.
or, is there a strategic intent of releasing leaked videos?.

Somebody with extremely government type hacker tools....remember that the borg has powerful enemies that hate them for being apolitical, for their neutrality...they like them to be destroyed.... which is kind of feeding the compound panic, the persecution complex.....

Ohh...you mean like at the end of the statement for the U.S. North Korea summit on June 12, 2018 "promotion of peace, prosperity and security of the Korean peninsula and of the world". Politicians love those words.

I think the key is in one of the latest 2018 financial leaked videos. They have some serious problems in 'stewardship' a.k.a. management.
Not enough auditors, practically not using budgets, no good communication and infighting between departments, emphasis in accounting the past instead of taking under consideration future costs, special petty projects that nobody could touch, people with checkbooks or credit cards without reliable internal control....it looks like a mess...and they say so, not me.

Kind of weird after all those leaked videos about WT's finances, still, in this year of the Lord 2018, they say don't have a good auditing process, practically no use of budgets, infighting between departments, special petty projects, delayed decisions about subcontracting, people with checkbooks or credit cards around with not too much internal control....there is no wonder why they're having all those problems with income and expenses....

Stronger than Hypnosis
by Londo111 inbeing the society is anti-hypnosis, i know very little about it.
but from what i've observed it often involves willing participants focusing their concentration, usually involving repetition, until the subject is in a state where suggestions can be implanted in their mind.
bite can involve hypnosis, but in many instances it may not.

Mind is really powerful and could be manipulated....like for example in North Korea....a lot of people over there really think the best about their 'beloved comrade leader'.
