and it wasn't until April 1st of 1984 that the Spanish and English finally were synchronized.

Here is the basic formula. It's not 100% accurate because some articles were put onto other dates. But for the most articles it will match up. I was working on an accurate match up, english to Spanish and vice versa and I have some years pretty much complete. Message me if you want me to send you what I have so far.

Tv.jw.org - Average Jdub reaction? I'm getting NOTHING but Silence!
by 4thgen inhello all, as you know, when jw tv was announced, our board went wild.
many comments, much speculation and alot of negative feedback on the quality, etc.
well, what has me concerned is that i have not heard a peep from any of my connections left in kingdom-land.

Funny thing is I haven't heard anything either. I heard more commotion about the JW language app, but then again I do attend a foreign language congregation.

TV.JW.Org - Streamed to KHs via the New Projectors
by passwordprotected ini read here recently that the khs are being instructed to buy and install projector systems.. now that we've seen the launch of of tv.jw.org we can fully expect public talks to - on a monthly basis at least - be replaced by content streamed from the site to the screens in khs.. .

Ah! That could be a reason why the Kingdom Hall I go to got new flat screen tv's not long ago. The only thing it currently displays is the yearly bible text

I agree with this theory and have thought something similar. "Bad GB" have a full on plan ready and more power. I do believe that the current GB does have a plan that is now being played out with all these changes. The internet has changed the game since information is so easy to spread and with numerous websites that challenge JW teachings, they are stepping up their game. Plus, the selling and buying new property, new logo, all well thought out. They're moving things in a new direction.

Everyone asked to take their literature back to the KH?
by MrMonroe inmay be bullshit or just confusion, but here's a post at a facebook ex-jw page:.
"so last night i performed one of my occasional meeting attendances, and whilst watching the kids and planning my exit strategy in the event of a walking dead style zombie outbreak, i think i heard them read a letter saying that the brothers are now to destroy all old literature in their possession if it's in bad condition, or return it to the elders if it's in good condition, but you can no longer keep any old literature... hmmm".
anyone know anything about this letter?
-

A.proclaimer
there was a letter read not long about the literature except it asked to return any extra literature in good condition back to with Kingdom Halls to use in field service and such. Nothing about destroying old literature, though they did say some of the books will be revised and update in the future.

Debating JW's
by will brooks inhi,.
i'm new in this forum and it seems from a quick recce that jw's give this site a miss?
is there a site that jw's use - other than their official one which is restricted to active jw's?.
-

A.proclaimer
Jwtalk is where all the JW's go but that site is like a fortress, heavily guarded and monitored against any negativity or criticism. You cant go onto certain sections until you've spent some time there with an account. I've seen it and sometimes people would write in their posts that they don't mean their comments to sound critical, because they're afraid of having their comment or post removed and such.

I still love Kingdom Melodies.
by POs Son inok, at the risk of getting flamed, i have been out for over 20 years, and still love kingdom melodies.
i remember them for the good times, the conventions and assemblies, hearing the orchestral versions, imagining the orchestra playing.
some pieces were really nice.

There are some that have beautifully written melodies. Listening to old kingdom songs makes me nostalgic since I remember falling asleep to them as a kid. I grew up with the brown book before the change to the new one. I'm not very fond of the new songs that are always played from the new songbook, the melodies aren't that great and a lot of the older songs that appear in the new book are hardly played.
Some I like:
God's Loyal Love
Life Without End at Last
Forward you Witnesses
Zealous for Fine Works

Rebranding of the Watchtower to JW.org - how long in the works?
by truthseeker inthe transformation from watchtower to jw.org is nothing short of remarkable.. animated cartoons (caleb and sophia), the new jw.org slogan, international convention websites (featuring previously unthinkable entertainment in the kingdom hall) - how long do you think this has been in the works for?.
i feel very uneasy about what is happening - it's so sudden, seems like it all happened within the space of a year.. i sense some intelligence about all this, as if it has been some carefully orchestated performance - to dazzle and distract.. the kingdom ministry of 1999 was totally against the internet and now they seem to embrace it along with tablets and smartphones.. why the sudden change?
do you think it is anything to do with social media?.

My guess is after the final old GB members past away since they're from an older generation that grew up without internet. With statistics showing growth percentage greatly declining during the 90's, must have happened in the 2000's, early to mid. Around that time I'm sure they had planned to move out of Brooklyn. As for the website could have been much later. Everyone uses the internet and it's inevitable not to. With all these "apostate" websites going around, there isn't much defense for the Watchtower so they need to counteract that issue with what they can. JW.org offers something fresh, modern, and more sleek. Plus it's more convenient for members to gain easy access to information, and that would include other people.

I went to field service this Saturday, didn't actually do anything but sleep in the car. Anyway, as the elder exited the car to meet a return visit and my mother reminded him to take his bible along. The elder replied that he didn't need it and he would use what "the Slave" provided, meaning the online video and brochure for the new campaign. Talk about replacing the Bible!
