Or does he just pick any brown-noser that he chooses?
Yes! The brown-nosers and suck-ups giving the green handshakes will be the ones appointed from now on. Any loving, compassionate, self-sacrificing genuine elder will be deleted faster than one could say GB...IF the CO doesn't care for anything about him. Just watch the turn over as personalities clash with the CO in power every three years.
okay folks...here it is:.
blah blah blah blah, bad things and tragedies.
blah blah blah blah, satan!

Yes, they are lookiing for younger ones to "groom" to become company men. An eldurr friend where I live mentioned that it is now official after the last SAD that circuit overlords will be put out to pasture (retired) at 70 from now on.
I fully expect that the younger, me-first generation of C.O's will make it miserable for anyone over forty or fifty years of age. It's in their DNA these days to be even more critical, demanding, condescending, dismissive and what not of anyone not in their age group.

circuit overseers will be responsible for the appointment and deletion of elders and ministerial servants.
Well! Isn't that just special!
Watch the green handshakes, and the race of the ones "reaching out" to plug their noses as far up the circuit oversneers ass as possible begin. And then watch the back-stabbing and cut-throat behavior begin as circuit oversneer A appoints one jack-ass brown-noser only to pass over a decent hard working brother who he doesn't personally care for. Only for the whole bull-s--t process to start over three years later with ciruit oversneer B.
Can things get any more effed up?
what if right in the middle of rolling out their latest money-grabbing scheme, there was an uprising demanding financial transparency?.
i thought jehovah was a god of organization and numbers.
isn't that why we report time and have all these annual reports?.

I had the "privelege" of doing the accounts for awhile.
All I can say is that if a secular business kept their books exactly the same way the congregation/organization does they would be in jail!

Jehovah says no one should approach Him empty-handed.
That's why I don't give even one red cent to the org. THEY are not Jehovah. I prefer to toss my daily loose change in the air, and whatever God wants he is free to catch and keep.

eww .
.. zed.
Gives new meaning to the phrase, "Don't go off half-cocked!"
look...i am not an atheist.
even so, i have never had one prayer answered my entire life.
the only thing that would even come close was learning ttatt.
Of course I had prayers answered!
Why just last night I prayed that today it would be light during the daytime hours...and verily I say unto thee...IT'S LIGHT!
yay!!!
seriously one of the most watchtarded talks ever.
maybe one of our elders can post the outline??
Either that or simply assume that they - individually - are the ones with the problem.
And that is exactly what they want people to believe. It's YOUR FAULT! If only you would pray more, door knock more, study more, give more time, give more money then, and only then, will you be blessed with happiness.
yay!!!

I admit I am commenting before reading the other comments. But it seems a little out of place to use the term HAPPY in the talk title. I could understand Jehovah's people, or HAPPY people, but not so much Jehovah's HAPPY people. At least not in my observations!
