...but which president? Which corporation?

When Jesus said be as innocent as a dove, but also as wise as a serpent, 'evidently' he also meant be as slippery as an eel.
in rutherford's day, it was absolute.
knorr and franz had strong influence, even though the gb had voted themselves into a role of significance.
being a corporation, the wt will still have a president.

on the subject of beards....i recently realized that the people in three of the youtube channels i love to watch are jw's.
i don;t want to name these channels here, but you can message me if you want to know them.
shortly after the announcement of now being allowed to have a beard, the men on these youtube channels started growing facial hair, whereas until that point, they were clean shaven.
Pennsylvania eh, I wonder if any of those nice youtubers could be involved in that alleged unsavoury stuff...

1000 lit-up carts at 50 strategic locations near the stadium and on the strip.

I wonder if you can hear the national anthem from outside the stadium?
If so, what do the JWs do if they happen to be standing up by their carts? They must have a rule about that.

Thanks Atlantis! I guess this goes with the theme of the 2024 conventions 'Declare the Good News!'
'jehovah's witnesses are heavily vaccinated due to guidance given from july to december 20211 by the governing body.many witnesses have had serious adverse effects following vaccination campaigns and, for the most part, have had great difficulty in expressing them and having them recognized.this website was made to allow each witness touched by these vaccination campaigns to express it so that the community takes it into account.'.

I agree that anti vaccination campaigns have adverse effects.
eric wilson's video is worth a view.. https://youtu.be/iil4fryuczk?si=f566n0tdqgpqc2ok.
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?.
I'm not sure how long it's been there, but Part Two of the 2023 annual meeting is available on the jw website, including the small matter of worldly people getting saved at the great tribulation ie 'last minute conversion'.
This seemed like it would be a big deal!

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-01-29/jehovahs-witnesses-not-reporting-all-child-sex-abuse-to-police-/103320582.
national news story in australia today.. the inquiry heard that since the 1950s, the witnesses hid more than 1,000 cases of child sexual abuse.the faith group did not report one case to police over that time.the royal commission was announced in 2012 and the final report was delivered in 2017.in the wake of the institutional failings exposed by the commission, western australia’s mandatory reporting requirements were expanded to include religious ministers in 2021.it meant that they would have to report child sexual abuse to authorities.however, despite it being post royal commission, documents show how the religious group conducted its own internal investigation.the religious leaders did not report the matter to police.

Prisoner 1: Hey mate, what are you in for?
Prisoner 2: I've been imprisoned for my Bible-based scriptural beliefs.
Prisoner 1: Oh no! Lads, we got another one of those JW nonces!
