Milton Henschel was President of the Watchtower Society from December 30, 1992 until his death on March 22, 2003.
Not to be nit picky, but this is not correct. Henshel resigned as President of the Society back in 2000.

i know the anointed never get consulted.
but is it true that the governing body has modified the definition of the faithful and discreet slave to exclusively apply to themselves and to not include the thousands of other anointed..
the GB are also the executive directors of the Watchtower Publishing Corporation.
Uh, no they're not, they all resigned as Corporation executives back in 2000. I believe the current president of the Watch Tower Society is Don Adams, not a GB member.

this is a man who had cold callers coming to his home.
at first nothing could be legaly done about it, but now it can and house holders now have a legal right to refuse cold callers coming to their home and by law this must be obeyed.. i wonder what impact this will have on the jw's and also their policy of calling once a year even if they have been told not to??
The door-to-door work, while once a major part of being a JW, is now a very minor aspect of what it is to be a witness. Its an exercise in futility, if it goes away it will not change anything. They will find some other ways to "count some time" that will be just as ineffective and pointless but will make them feel like they are "preachers".

2011 yearbook - "tracing all things with accuracy", p.9-13.
jesus said that the faithful slave would be discreet in giving the domestics "their food at the proper time.
" christ thus indicated that those who dispense this "food" would be conscientious, prudent, and discerning in providing spiritual food for the household of faith.-matt.
Wow this article is so full of mistakes, its like shooting fish in a barrel.
How about the life stories where a witness relates how he was first contacted by the Bible Students in the very early 1900s and was told by the Bible Students that Jesus presence had begun in 1914? It doesn't take much "research" to know that up until the 30s they taught that Jesus' invisble presence began in 1874.
I predict this thread will go on for dozens of pages.

..., and while i usually contribute in a thread that's already been created, i thought this particular topic might warrant it's own.. like many of you, on friday i was persusing the "concerned elder speaks" thread about higher-ed and the gb's ross/rachel relationship with it, and a couple of posts caught my eye:.
room 215 - "that's it, boys; alienate the remaining elders, drive them to resign and exacerbate the shortage already underway.".
baltar447 - "it's like they want fewer elders and servants.".
Marvin, there is something not quite right with your notes, how would the Sept. 1, 1925 Watchtower have the Memorial attendance for 1928?

so we've seen flipper's thread discussing the jan 15th wt.
well in the article following the one discussed in that thread, you have discussion about turning in your friends.
apparently now they aren't content to turn in for "gross sin".
This is nothing new in Watchtower land. This kind of article could have been printed anytime over the last 20-30 years.

jw parents are put under enormous pressure if they want their kids to live.
if parents dont want their children killed they had better get their kids to spend 6 hours a day selling the watchtowers children book or else.
WTWizard, the quote was from a Watchtower from 70 years ago, things were a little different back then. The newer School brochures allude to the fact that proselytizing while at school or at work may not be allowed.

i just posted a short video with the soundbyte from the talk in the thread on kingdom control.
here's the link.
i don't know if i can embed it properly:.
I think we should all call the Charitable Planning Office and request a copy of the brochure. Better yet, see if they will send out multiple copies. I would also see if they would be willing to send it out via overnight delivery or FedEx, whichever is more expensive faster.

wts gb 2.0 is fully in place now with the death of barr.
out of the current gb members, who would be considered members of gb 3.0, or has that group started yet?
the jw's might as well face it......their armaggedon is not coming and their gb could go on and on.. .
If you look at the dates each of the GB was added, there is almost a 20 year gap between 1977 and 1994 where no new members were added. So I would say all those appointed up to 1977 would be 1.0 and those since 1994(i.e. all the current members) would be 2.0.
