yadda: Vidiot, I don't follow you. Why on earth would the latest, trendy focus on JW.ORG be something in the category of "strange and possibly impractical-seeming instructions?" Quite the opposite I'd say; most internet savvy JW's in the western world would regard it as entirely practical and long overdue!
Ummm....aren't JWs the same people who, for the most part, still think it's wise to not go to college or plan for retirement?
Aren't JWs the same people that pay $10,000 a day to rent their own mortgage-free assembly halls they just paid $10 million for?
Aren't JWs the people who bought the "overlapping" generation B.S. hook, line and sinker?
Finally, aren't JWs the ones that gullibly swallowed the WTs latest and blatantly absurd, self-aggrandizing definition of the "faithful slave" and praised it as wonderful "new light"?
I don't think "practical" is an influential factor in most of what JWs do.

"most internet savvy JW's in the western world would regard it as entirely practical and long overdue!"
I'm curious: What do JWs who don't have the Internet, or have access but don't use it, think? To them, a website is not only a big mystery but completely useless.
Since WT is seeing its largest growth in countries that have little, or no, Internet access, or JWs are too poor to afford a computer or the Internet, and is shrinking in countries that do have the Internet and JWs can afford it, this above statement has no relevance.
