  The 90's GB were invissible for the rank and file. Current members are TV hosts with an enormous public.

  They must deal with a pressure these days.

  he looks completely different and he doesn’t do that raised eyebrows and funny mouth that he used to.

  and something is going on with his hair.

  is it a combover or a wig or is that even him?

  "jehovah’s witnesses do not celebrate birthdays because we (the g.b.

  JWs can toast now….what’s next

  so you can see from multiple topics here (& elsewhere), based on gb update #4, jws now have permission to toast.. there’s been a boatload of “xyz is now allowed” over the past couple of years….beards, no ties in field service or at the kh, sister can wear pants at the kh & in field service…... what do you think is next?.

  a lot of folks are speculating on birthday celebrations being allowed, and i agree that will eventually come, but i don’t think it is next.

  too big of a jump.. heres my guess:.

  AMIII reappointed at GB

  bethel's morning worship was concluded with the announcement that antony morris iii is reappointed at the governing body with effect from july 2, 2025.. the reason for this deeply considered decision is the new understanding of toasting before consuming a drink.

  the appointment of brother morris is an evidence of jehovah's blessing on the careful and conscientious efforts of the governing body.. g. .

  from a rational point of view: "the world" is "on fire" and a lot of people needs help.

  refugees all over the world, and people in economic trouble, needing help, even in the "western world".. so, "the society", jw.org accept toosting from now on.. what's wrong with their collective leadership and their followers, in what bubble do they act and live?.

  it makes me, after the laughing, fun and "ahead of the heavenly wagon" of yesterday, some kind of sad today.. gorby .

  I toast with jw family. Most accept this.

  When doing this, I tell them a story about toasting.

  "Why toasting? Having a diner, the eyes see the beautiful food, and enjoy. The nose smells the fine and excelent aromas, and enjoy. The mouth experience the most fantastic taste, and enjoy. So, the ears complain, they can't enjoy diner. That's why tasting was implemented, so the ears could enjoy the sound of fine crystal glass.".

  Telling this short story makes even a jw smile.
