Since all things on the internet eventually lead to porn, she probably Googeled the words "Governing Body" and stumbled onto something a little more "Spiritually Enlightening" than she had intended.

Yeah...I remember. It was the first thing I though of when someone made a post about the latest W.Tower that mentioned the acceptability of Brothers in certain regions, wearing beards.
What happened to worldwide unity?

in fact, having one may hinder a brother from bringing glory to God by his dress and grooming and his being irreprehensible
JW's decided long ago that dressing in the style of "Corporate America" fit into their idea of acceptable even though they view Corporate America as corrupt and say it's wrong to emulate the worlds standards of dress and grooming.
There are people who highly distrust anyone wearing a suit and tie because of their past dealings with those in positions of power whether they are Buisiness Men, Politicians or Religious Leaders. Often, such as in court, someone who is trying to appear more respectable than he really is, will put on a suit and time.
For some people, there may be less hindrance to the Glory of God if his message came to them from someone wearing a beard and casual clothing. For others, just knocking on their door like an annoying salesman is a hindrance to the message of God as well yet no one suggests dropping the door to door work lest it turn anyone away from the message.
In this matter of Beards, there is more going on than beards being a hindrance to the message. I suspect that, someone in authority back in the day, wanted themselves apart from C.T. Russell supporters or perhaps they didn't like them or couldn't grow one themselves. As is so often is the case, they found a way to make man made notions appear as if they were about concern for Gods will.
In the early days of Disneyland, Walt Disney banned his employees from wearing beards and moustaches because in his growing up years, he associated them with "Carnival Barkers" and the Villains in his stories always had moustaches or beards. He wanted to set his theme park apart from trashy carnivals and wanted his employees to look like the good guys in his stories. But at least he owned up to it and didn't try to insinuate that it was about God.

A JW sports and recreation center....did anyone else not know about this besides me???
I thought our donations were for building Kingdom Halls in impoverished countries. No wonder we were always in the RED on the first day of our Circuit Assemblies even though our Assembly Hall was paid for decades ago.

For some reason it doesn't sit well with Government Officials to have a group going around in public, undermining their efforts to keep the Country organized and stable, by saying that said Government is backed by the Devil and soon to be destroyed by God.
JW's cry "persecution" yet in a way, bring it upon themselves and even use it as a barometer of how well they are doing in terms of their prophesies.

You wear tight pants and you will be in trouble
by wannaexit ini was reading in another forum, that a letter to the elders instructed them to speak to anybody who persists in wearing tight pants.
if changes don't happen then the instructions are to disqualify him from being a publisher but it won't be announced to the congregation.
i am am curious to see if this letter will surface.
