"Governing Body Procedure," a secret rulebook
by john.prestor inin crisis of conscience, raymond franz reproduces a letter sent to him from someone representing the governing body in which they thank him for returning the text, governing body procedure.
franz says nothing about this text any other place in the work, but i've been trying to track it down, because it sounds like another confidential manual like shepherd the flock of god.
i doubt it's been leaked (i'm shocked, pleasantly, that we even have circuit overseer guidelines, the confidential manual used by circuit overseers) but you never know.. is anyone else familiar with this work?

QUOTE:
Splitting is most often referred to in the context of an individual changing his perception of and reaction to an external object from that of an “all good” classification to an “all bad” classification, or vice versa. However, splitting also may be a function of how an individual views the group he or she is part of, and that group’s relationship to the outside world. Thus, by virtue of being part of the “good” group, one is made “all good” and is thereby in serious conflict with the outside world, which is, of course, “all bad.” Robinson, Frye, and Bradley (1997) alluded to this phenomenon in their discussion of cult affiliation and disaffiliation, “critical thinking is compromised and individuals are encouraged to view their families of origin and the non-cult world as bad or evil, whereas the cult beliefs and activities are all seen as good” (p. 167).

The JW News Facebook page and SaySorry.org have joined to shine a light on Jehovah's Witnesses and Watch Tower
by jwleaks insaysorry.org and the jw news facebook page, with 16k followers, have joined to 'shine a light' on the watch tower society and those leaders within the jehovah's witness organization that disregard or violate the laws of the land.
it is also our hope that the governing body of jehovah's witnesses will "say sorry" by acknowledging their errors and by adopting a culture of acting lawfully, ethically and in a socially responsible manner.. the jw news facebook page was launched in 2011 and has recently undergone a major timeline clean up to remove copyrighted material from the past three years.. facebook.com/jwnews.

No credible info that Matt Bellamy from Muse, or his mother, were ever JWs. I do like Muse’s songs ‘Resistance’ and ‘Hysteria’. Check out the cover versions by The Warning.

Thanks everyone above for the above comments.
It truly was a benchmark moment. The EXJW community met with, and talked with, everyone they could on Monday at Parliament in Canberra, Australia. They drove the issue. They pushed the issue. They represented us all. They represented the children, all 1800 of them, and they let everyone know. They raised our concerns and gave the right answers and solutions... to the Australian Prime Minister, the Deputy Prime Minister, the Leader of the Opposition, senators, politicians, CARC commissioners, prosecutors, law enforcement agencies, media, dignitaries, lawyers, and other activists.
We personally met with and thanked Julia Gillard, former Prime Minister, for initiating the Child Abuse Royal Commission (CARC). We personally met with and thanked Justice Peter McClellan AM, commissioner for the CARC, for his worked. We personally met with and thanked commissioner, Justice Jennifer Coate, for her work with the CARC. Earlier we had personally thanked Angus Stewart SC for his work on Case Study 29 into Jehovah’s Witnesses.
In the lead up to the National Apology representatives of the EXJW community, Lara Kaput and Steven Unthank, had also met with officials over a six month period from all relevant Australian government departments and organisations, so as to highlight the systemic and systematic problems within the JWs and Watchtower. These were your concerns, that everyone had raised on the Jehovah’s Witness forum and the EXJW forum on Reddit.
We met, we talked, we presented, we workshopped, to every government department we could. They listened. We also traveled to the UK recently. We traveled throughout Europe, meeting after meeting. Both Lara and myself. Six months we worked tirelessly to bring this event together. We gave media interviews. We gave speeches. We gave presentations. Not only to Australian government officials and departments, but also to those departments in the UK and across Europe. We also contributed to investigations and actions in the USA.
During the National Apology on Monday (22 October 2018) at Parliament we also also gave media interviews from early morning to late afternoon. This was a flow on from the media engagements we had commenced the previous Friday.
We financed this ourselves over 10 years. We hope you, your family, and all the children withi the JW community benefit.
This is now our 11th year. Thanks everyone for your support.
You can follow our efforts through our dedicated website Say Sorry: https://saysorry.org/
Our pleasure and our gift to you,
Steven Unthank & Lara Kaput

Serious Issue ....... that MUST be Addressed !!!!!
by Simon inthis is such an important issue, more and more people are succumbing to what must be some viral outbreak wreaking havoc in the world.. i'm talking about unnecessary punctuation.. it's easy to become infected.
you want to write something and add some emphasis so you add an exclamation mark to make it "important!
" but dang, it's not important enough is it??
