The old GB seemed to hide behing the scenes. This new GB is attempting to be charismatic leaders. This produces apathy or revolt in countries like the US, but fervor and zeal in 3rd world uneducated countries. I was in a South American country during a recent GB visit, the first one in years. It was insane. A long line of people who wanted pictures and to just shake his hand. The americans and bethelites didn't really care. we in america don't like being told what to do. 3rd world countries love dictators.

The good thing is that this motion is not filed by some lunatics but by the DA. They are professionals and have already done a thorough investigation. This may actually have some teeth. I'll be following closely. The GB is already preemptively striking back at media reports like this via this upcoming sunday's watchtower. All JWs should know that anything coming from the media is a lie.

During these cold months I need a way to keep my hours up and stay under the radar. I'm still an MS so I can't totally fake it. So I decided to try letter writing to avoid going out into the cold. Thankfully, nobody will see the contents of the letters except me. I can actually send people a good postive message to brighten their day and not attempt to force more literature upon them. Anybody else ever thought about doing this or perhaps something more mischevious?

The Biggest Fear From The Watchtower Organization Is ???
by minimus ini think the organization is worried most about how jws will stay loyal to their families even as it rejects the admonition of the gb and elders..

The burn out woke me up. It's like a second job. Tons of rules. Get to meeting early or be threatened. Go out in service more or be threatened. Agree with the CO or be threatened. Have no opinion or be threatened. No freedom. Extra scrutiny. Being a loving person is not a requirement. Being a ambitions "reaching out" yes man is. Nothing like what Jesus taught. Better to be R&F and do whatever you want.
