    Well, according to the 2012 March 15 (Overly) Simplified Watchower, it is to "..give us Bible publications".

    I kid you not! On page 29, under subheading 4 it says:

    "Jesus has appointed “the faithful and

    discreet slave” to give us Bible publications."

    BTW, completely ommited in the "regular" WT.

    Seriously, Jesus is probably doing cartwheels now, "happified" by the printing mandate granted to the GB.

    I think the GB isn't even trying to hide what they are anymore. It's full frontal now. Obey us, or else. No hidden message. Just do it.

    Amazing how the parable about the 'faithful & discreet slave' evolved into the doctrine it is today. Don't recall any other parable being made such an important part of the WTS theology. It's funny.....but, I remember when first joining how it was stressed in FS that JW's don't have a clergy class.

    Knownothing- you are on to the essentials with the Org., I think with Knorr he knew it was flim-flam but this new crop of GB didn't get the memo that it was an inside joke.

    Knowsnothing: It's full frontal now.

    As in a full-frontal lobotomy!

    @ thinkaboutit, they don't have a clergy class, they have Popes and Laymen.

    @ designs, it's all one big joke.

    @ 00DAD, LOL. There is another avenue full-frontal goes down.... I have a dirty mind, it needs to be cleansed with the newest washtowel Bible publications.

    Could you imagine if another religion nut-group were to say that? I wonder what JW's would say about that...
