The Holy Spirit must have given the GB a heads up...after 133 years WT is still in the dark as to when Armageddon is coming, but at least they know when their own videos are being shredded on non-JW sites....

Atlanta Int Convention 2014:The Big Party. Does this look like WT believes Armageddon is coming "soon"?
by AndDontCallMeShirley inhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=potrr2qxhue.
.. if armageddon is "imminent", why is wt focused on sight-seeing, entertainment, travel, etc.
instead of preaching and saving people??.

Donation of blood fractions
by why144000 inthis may be the wrong area for this but here goes.. if you went to a bank and told them " i don't have an account with you, i never will have an account with you and i will tell people you are a terrible bank" then ask not for a loan from them, but a gift of a lot of money, how do you think they would respond?.
yet, witnesses now have the the ability to take blood fractions from the blood bank without ever contributing to the blood bank.
there is a process that the blood bank takes just the plasma from a donor to be used for fractions only.

It's the traditional WT/JW mindset: condemn the entire world as "Satan's system of things", call it evil, unjust and bent on wiping out JWs, yet beat a path to the door to be the first in line if the WT/JW can benefit from that very system (sepecially if it's a freebie).

Expect more Crazy as JW.ORG trims the fat and fills the coffers.
by donuthole inwhen rutherford assumed the presidency of the watchtower society he instituted series of sweeping changes to the teachings and practices of the bible students.
some of these changes were at complete odds with what had been taught previously.
a key example was the elevation of the watchtower society as "god's visible organization on earth".

the branch feels there is a net decrease of 5% in the last five years
.
Let's not forget, as Ray Franz documented in CoC, that falling numbers in the 1960's were the entire foundation for formulating the 1975/Armageddon nonsense. The WT needed to do something to bring people back and get the numbers up- what better way to do that than to declare the End was near and only WT had salvation.
Desperate thinking leads to desperate actions. There's no predicting what WT will do in the future, except that the absurdity will reach epic levels.

They will never dump Jehovah's Witnesses as their name
.
I'm sure the IBSA said the very same thing...right up to the point they were re-branded as "Jehovah's Witnesses".
Once "New Light"™ shows up, all bets are off. Anything is possible.

@ Outlaw: The WBT$ could care less if they lost 75% of the JW`s..
.
Well, the Org. lost 75% of it's followers when Rutherfraud hijacked control of the WT...it lost (overall)* 10% after 1975...and I have no doubt it is likely to happen again.
* some European countries saw a 75%+ decline.

yadda yadda 2: Rebrand to call themselves JW.org? lol, can't see that. I think some are getting a bit carried away at the new internet focus.
.
If a person is even marginally observant, you'll notice that "JW.Org" has been promoted and repeated ad nauseum. Look at the August tract for the campaign- JW.Org is all over it. Look at the booths and storefronts WT is utilizing. They don't have banners on them that say "Watchtower" or "Jehovah's Witnesses". No, on every one of them it says in big bold letters "JW.Org".
Do you not notice any of this?
