things got a bit lively after the agm leaks in october.
there was a lot of discussion going on on this board for a few months.
now that all the leaks have been more or less confirmed as policy, and we've had lively discussions at length concerning the changes, things seem to have slowed down here.. a few suggestions have been raised as to what might be the next changes, such as women being allowed to wear slacks (in the usa, anyway), decoupling from 1914 as an anchoring date and others.. so, what changes do you think will be announced this year?.
Sorry for asking what may have been asked before. The original post mentions women ( in US at least) being ALLOWED to wear trousers.
So that means that up until now trousers for women have been officially banned ?
When l have asked why women always wear trousers the answer has been that they choose to in order to honour Jehovah. It's always denied that they can't because it's not allowed.

as the clouds of war are gathering fast over the european continent many countries including britain are contemplating a return to conscription and some form of mandatory military service.
considering the fact that the watchtower fought long and hard especially in europe for the right of its believers to abstain from military service it is very interesting to see how this new development will affect the watchtower across europe.
I don't live in London so don't see The Metro and all the hype seems to be people's opinions on one person's musings about the subject.
It seems to be getting blown out of all proportion.

i got the internet in my house and realised it's all lies....but as a pioneer/ministerial servant i chose to fade.
see i had family and friends who were fully strict witnesses.
so i played the poor lost soul brother who is not sure what's happening.
I think that l would get fed up of having to watch my words all the time .
Like l said in my original post are you really free?

the faithful slave is considered god's channel of communication.
( though not inspired of god ) does anyone else find the use of the word channel interesting in this regard?
from where i am sitting it denotes spiritism.
Or Deut 18 : 22
' When a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord , if the thing follows not , nor comes to pass that is the thing that the Lord hath not spoken but the prophet spoke it presumptuously, thou shalt not be afraid of him '

Jeremiah 14:14
Then the Lord said to me
" The prophets are prophesying lies in my name . I have not sent them or appointed them or spoke to them . They are prophesying to you false visions, divinations, idolotries and the delusions of their own minds "
