Maybe these places are what they are planning to reopen.
There's reddit pages out there - the ones we know about so far are in Hong Kong and some parts of Australia.

The first super spreader event from a Kingdom Hall will shut this program down.
Yeah, I've got a feeling this is not going to end well.

I suspect the WTS is underestimating the level of resistance to starting up in-person meetings again.

Why build a new movie studio when we are in the last part of the last part of the last day?
by Vanderhoven7 ingiles gray writes: .
if the end is so near as the jehovah’s witnesses leadership claims (somehow they must have special insight), why are they building a movie studio that will be finished in 2026?.
it’s not the first time something of this nature has happened in the society’s history.

At the same time, they'll ignore the fact that all the studios and printing facilities of the world could also be intact and at their disposal and they don't need to build this new one.
Ha! Good one.
Somehow God always seems to forgetting stuff he could have done.
Like how, during the flood, he miraculously caused 100% of the earth's vegetation to survive being fully immersed is saltwater for a year, but he couldn't similarly miraculously cause the same sort of miracle for animal life - no, they all had to go into a big boat to be saved.

Return to Kingdom Hall Meetings - Letter to Elder Bodies?
by JWTom ina couple of threads over on reddit that there is a letter to elders on restarting meetings.
i find this hard to believe and have not seen anything on this from our trusty sources on this site.
can anyone confirm?.

Around here, the circuit assembly is scheduled for January, and the latest "official" notice gives the location as the nearest assembly hall. But I'd bet large sums of coffee beans that it just ain't happening.

The "Regular Pioneer" title has now become a total joke
by pistolpete inwe just had our co visit a few weeks ago.
apparently, he was encouraging all who could to regular pioneer, to at least try it out for a year.
because of this, we had a few people in our hall become one.. so this weekend we were on zoom service, and the sister that was just appointed was talking about it.

What's even more totally nuts is that there is still an "enforced" requirement of 50 hours (or 30 during certain months) for auxiliary pioneering.
So, you can be a pioneer and get 5 hours per month, but if you sign up to be an auxiliary pioneer and get 44 hour instead of 50, in theory, the elders could "get after you" (although, practically, I doubt anyone would) for not meeting your commitment.
Yeah, I know if several people who have joined up as regular pioneers recently. I'm quite sure their schedule will not allow them to get anywhere close to 70 hours.
It is, as has been noted on this thread here, supremely stupid. Why not just make everyone a pioneer, if there is no hour requirement? What's the bloody point?

Why else would WT, during the 2021 AGM, address this belly-aching the rank & file are having about the Ramapo Media Center if it isn't really becoming a problem?
Exactly.There are no coincidences in WT-world.
There is also no proactivity.
If they mention a specific, direct concern in a talk, or video, or "especially) in a Watchtower article, you can be 110% certain that they are responding to dozens, hundreds, maybe thousands, of reports from their functional KGB, the circuit overseers.
Here's another example, from this week's Congregation "Bible" Study (Pure Worship Restored, 2018):
More and more people today are being misled into thinking that Jehovah’s high standards are overly strict, out-of-date, or just wrong. Will you be misled? For example, if someone tries to convince you that God’s standards regarding homosexual conduct are mistaken, will you agree with him? Or will you agree with Jehovah God, whose Word clearly states that those who carry out such acts are “working what is obscene”? God warns us against approving of immoral conduct.
Why are they coming down so hard on people who "approve of immoral conduct"? Because they've heard from their COs that JWs are weary of hating homosexuals, and JWs are neighbors to homosexuals who are more moral (true sense, not JW sense) than most JWs, and JWs go to school with homosexuals but astonishingly are not persuaded to change their own orientation, etc.I.e. JWs are discovering that sexual orientation does not make a person "good" or "bad", and that homosexuals can be and often are better people than even JWs.
Can't have that! So the WTS responds with anti-homosexual vitriol and tells their followers "this is what you must believe".
