Ye---- but like the Pope of the RC church ,it is a lifetime appointment by god. LOL! They have to be senile tThat is one of the qualifications for the gb. O and god has selected them so maybe he is senile also.

in bethel, and with co's, etc, once a person is too old to be of much use, they are kicked out and left to satan's welfare system to care for them.
why is it that governing body members are in position for life?
they don't get super human power, so they should be kicked out and left to government welfare at the same age they have felt it appropriate to kick the others out and let a younger, stronger governing body take over.

1873 [six thousand years of man's existence ends in a.d. 1873] {wr apr 1880 88} .
1873 "here we furnish the evidence that from the creation of adam to a.d. 1873 was six thousand years.
and though the bible contains no direct statement that the seventh thousand will be the epoch of christ's reign, the great sabbath day of restitution to the world, yet the venerable tradition is not without reasonable foundation.. if, then, the seventh thousand-year period of earth's history be an epoch specially noted as the period of christ's reign, we shall, by showing that it began in a.d. 1873, be proving that we are already in it.
I'm pretty sure that every Wednesday when the gb and jehober sit down to discuss things, that they all agree that they have a good thing going, so why screw it up by ending it! Tell the end is soooooooooooon but never really end it!
O-----and old Charlie Sunutko is still giving DC/RC talks! lol

focus.
("i've already disfellowshipped the governing body" class).
I wonder why the rank and file jw's are constantly urgedto 'wait on jehober' but the gb feels no need to 'wait on jehober'? If the gb would just 'wait on jehober' there would be no need for 'nu-lite' every few years to explain away the 'old lite' that jehober had given them previously. Either jehober is lying to them to begin with, or they didn't really hear what he said, or ???????????????????????????

paragraph 20 out of the article in the sept 2014 study wt about fulltime service says this.... .
"full-time servants age, and so do their parents.
when parents are witnesses, likely their fondest wish is for their children to stay in their assignments.
They know that more and more, even the long time, full times jw's are looking for an excuse to get out of their situation. By having aging relatives to care for is a perfect excuse to resign. The org is trying to discourage this from happening by using the old guilt trip plan---"jehober needs you more than your aging parents".

if you read the chapter 23 of the book of 1 kings, you will note that josiah was one of best kings of judah.
he did many good things in favor to yahweh-worshipping.
let's read:.
One of my favorite "O my god" bible accounts is when Lot escaped destruction of Sodom and Gomorah. His wife became a pillar of salt for her lack of faith, but his 2 daughters became his casual 'lovers' as a reward for their faith. What a lucky and guy he was. 2 nights with 2 different lovers and 2 successful pregnancies. what a stud. Fornication, incest, and drunkeness was ok for him because later on in the bible at 2 peter 2:7 he is referred to as "righteous Lot because he was greatly distressed by the bad law-defying people of loose conduct in Sodom??????????? WOW!

i have often wondered how the wt gets away with this.
every other "non-profit" or charitable group i know of that takes in donations, has a board, etc must publicly show how they spent their money, how many donations have been given, their assets, etc.
even the individual congregations read the accounts each month and post them on the bulletin board.
I've heard that they do file financial statements. It's just that 'it's' invisible to human eyes. One must have eyes of understanding to 'see'. Or not!

spotted while doing some research:.
*** g71 10/8 p. 27 time of rest and refreshment at hand ***.
as we near the end of 6,000 years of human history in the mid-1970s there is the thrilling hope of a grand relief.. this looks like a more conclusive statement about 1975 than what the wt has written in other places.. can it mean anything other than armageddon is coming in 1975 - the "end of 6000 years of human history"?.
Marked,
So many of our friends have virtually ruined, or at least wasted the better part of their lives because of the wtbts's bullsh*t predictions, date setting, and hype. The crap that the org has dangled so deliously before us, aka a "panda petting paradise", really doesn't affect the "bethel boys" aka gb, aka 'faithful slave' because they live in an institution unaffected by the ups and downs of the economy. So the fact that the never to be seen "panda petting paradise" isn't a reallity, is no sweat of their bal** (bald heads). Sadly we all bought into the "hope" at one time. Even more tragic is that many still hold onto it.

please spare a moment to consider the difiiculties faced by gay jehovahs witnesses.
i was raised and baptised as a very serious jw.
every waking moment of my day was lived for jehovahs and his organization and for nothing else.
The hardship of being a 'STRAIGHT' jehovah's witness is pretty gut wrentching too.
