the other day ,it was mentioned how rutherland supposedly swindled 5 sisters out of their shares etc to gain control of wt.. do you think there will be further shocking revelations about wt or have everything been covered?.
If enough evidence can be gathered to convict a certain G.B. member of rape before he dies might deal a hard blow to the WT.
Even that might not be enough. The G.B. Greenlees homosexual scandal did not damage the WT at all.
If any more Ray Franz like memos from other high up WT officials expressing their doubt or disbelief in JW doctrine would be a good find.
did you notice any similarities in the personalities of "anointed" jws?.
did they use their anointed status for personal advantage?.
were they the most loving person you ever met?.
From most of the experiences here, anointed JWs do not seem to have a very good reputation.
Considering that there are only a few thousand of them and the overall experience with them
has been negative, sounds like they need some good Public Relations help.
Any volunteers?

A wise man of the past wrote: "Man has dominated man to his injury." (Ecclesiastes 8:9) His words are true whether those dominating are individuals or classes. When one group of people elevates itself over another, misery and suffering inevitably result.

Faithful and discreet slave CLASS? CLASS of anointed Christians? Elevates itself over the CLASS of other sheep. With all the misery and personal suffering within WT organization talked about here, by the JW's own doctrine, the anointed must be held responsible.

here is video with j. r. brown, organizational spokesman for jehovah's witnesses and philip brumley, general counsel (lawyer) for jehovah's witnesses on the matter of how child abuse is treated with the congregations.. notice how j.r. brown says that the wt has taken "inititives" against child abuse over the past "10-15 years" and then later states that child "has become a burning issue in the last 20 or 30 years.
" that leaves over a decade that the wt took no "initiatives" on the "burning issue" of child abuse.. other j.r. brown statements:.
"crime is crime.".

"When we speak of child abuse, we have to look at society as a whole."
Basically, child abuse happens everywhere. So let's not only focus on the WT Society's problem with child abuse.

i can't find a thread on this subject yet - if there is one , please delete this one.. the september kingdom ministry has a 4 page insert detailing the 70 alterations in the revelation climax book which is due to be studied at the book study shortly.
i'll provide scans if anyone is interested.. i will leave it up to more experienced analysts to examine the reasons for specific changes , but just a few brief observations for now:.
p32 box - "they were completely exonerated" changed to "charges against them were dropped" - interesting change of terminology for the 1918 watchtower eight.
I'm guessing that this new and improved Revelation book info is the "big announcement"
If it is in the September KM, then it will have an entire Service Meeting part dedicated
to discussing the changes in the book and possibly a letter from the Society to be read.
Not exactly a big announcement.

One has to wonder what his sexual activity was while at Bethel, considering all the rumored homosexuality at Bethel over the years.
I wonder if he set up any hidden cameras in the restrooms at Bethel?
just called their media line:.

soon (if they haven't already) local congregations of jws will welcome newly disillusioned former members of the bethel family.
the most potentially dangerous have been paid off already (but what do you mean?
weren't we all given severances equally proportionate to our years of devoted service?
''The most potentially dangerous have been paid off already''
That did not work with Raymond Franz. The WT is too greedy to pay out enough money to keep disgruntled Bethelites quiet. It would take huge sums of money and perks which could be traced. If one of the "most potentially dangerous" ex-Bethelites discloses seriously damaging information, the WT will direct the local congregation to form a judicial committee and disfellowship the rat for causing divisions and apostasy, just like they did with Barbara Anderson.
