He's probably talking about the "standfasters." But they don't like to tell you how many Bible Student groups that still exist and are thriving.

What is even more amazing is that the GB DIDN'T do as it was told by the DFS that came before them, did they?

The sad thing is most JWs will think that this is very exciting and are looking forward to whatever confusing and difficult 'special instructions' the GB has in store for them.
Sooooooooo close now!

"Example: After Israelites crossed Jordan river, but prior to attacking Jericho, Jehovah commanded all uncircumcised Israelites to get clipped. Seemed like very poor strategy -- they needed several days to recover, and were extremely vulnerable, being trapped between flood-stage river and hostile city. But they did it anyway, and Jericho did not attack - Jehovah protected them."
I dunno about "Jehovah" protecting them... If you were part of a mighty city-state, with a fierce army, what honor would there be in attacking a buncha poor schmucks who were waddling around, all doubled up and groaning???
"Also, I found it highly unusual that they would even hint that they might be wrong on some things...."
Hah!! There's that nasty, evil Internet's malicious, Satanic influence at work, again!!!

DaCheech said, "How can anyone exercise faith a religion where you gotta be there every meeting in order to get the latest reversal in teachings?"
For some reason, that brought to my mind the image of a person trying to ride a giant sidewinder rattlesnake...
