Have any elders or ministerial servants here recieved any specific instructions regarding the annual meeting? As an MS all I have been told to do is to arrive early to "await further instruction due to the sensitive nature of my assignment". Ironically all I can imagine after hearing that a few times is dispensing cyanide laced Kool Aid to attendees. I bet all this psuedo-secrecy is just to hype a new bible and, or the call for MORE MONEY!!!

Individual Governing Body Members and Lawsuits
by jw07 ini don't know if this has any legal implications:.
since the identities of the individual members of the governing body have been publicly confirmed (not that we didn't know that before) can that open the way for direct lawsuits to be leveled against members?.
for instance are there any laws in the usa that would open the way for geoffrey jackson to be targetted by the lawsuits from child abuse or no blood transfusion deaths?.

Can the Demons infect a computer?
by Comatose inno self respecting jw would doubt the demons ability to attach themselves to physical objects.
for example if a jw put a poster on their wall of a pentagram or some other "satanic symbol" that's a "doorway" for the demunz.
it's inviting them into your home.

Yes they can, they tend to materialize as .exe files, sometimes with appealing names such as sashagrey.exe and milakunis.exe. Pray to Almighty Norton, his Only Begotten Son Avira, or His Active Force AVG to cast them out and help prove the issue of software sovereignty once and for all.

Awake and Watchtower - Top 10 Most Popular Magazines of 2013

It's simply a matter of having almost 8 million robots walking around foisting the mazagines to anything that moves. If the Cosmopolitan for instance had half the number of JWs actively peddaling it, it would outsell the Awake and Watchtower combined. After all it is about SEX, not pseudoscience and promises that the world will get 'better' after most of the earth's population gets slaughtered by an invisible being.

"Its original purpose, as given in a statement until 1982 was: “this magazine builds confidence in the Creator’s promise of a peaceful and secure new order before the generation that saw 1914 pass away”. It is published in 99 languages with a total circulation of around 43.5 million copies."
The other cackling dubs totally sidestepped the about point. Maybe it would have impacted them more if each paragraph has corresponding answers below them.

"Whether These Appear Sound From a Strategic or Human Standpoint or Not." - What do YOU think?

Paragraph 17
"At that time, the life-saving direction that we receive from Jehovah’s organization may not appear practical from a human standpoint. All of us must be ready to obey any instructions we may receive, whether these appear sound from a strategic or human standpoint or not. (4) Now is the time for any who may be putting their trust in secular education, material things, or human institutions to adjust their thinking. The elders must stand ready to help any who may now be wavering in their faith."
I literally got chills down my spine when I became aware of that sentence in the November 2013 study edition of the Watchtower. I couldn't help but think of the whole Jim Jones fiasco. As to exactly what they have in store, only time will tell, but I'm going to go out on a limb and speculate that the Watchtower is going to make a major push for more physical control of followers in the near future.
Scenario 1: Sending out a letter stating that the end is so near that JWs need to physically isolate themselves from the world at once. Stop attending school, work, stop associating with any who are not Witnesses unless absolutely necessary.
Scenario 2: Decreeing that Witnesses physically isolate themselves from the 'world' by gathering and living in Kingdom Halls, Assembly Halls etc.
Scenario 3: Wearing a special card to publicly identify oneself as a Witness 24/7, the way they usually do only for conventions.
Who knows, maybe all 3 combined.
What do YOU think?

Timing of the "new light" study and the upcoming annual meeting
by stuckinamovement ini find it interesting that the 7/15 watchtower will be studied from september 2-29th and then the annual meeting will be exactly one week after.
.
it strikes me as an effort to emphasize the fds and their role before a big announcement.. siam .
