    That's in a separate letter, see http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/beliefs/286276/1/Letter-Re-JW-Broadcasting. It should be announced at your next mid-week if it hasn't been already.

    So all the songs that got updated for the last songbook was ok but now songs cant be updated because its TOO extensive?

    Something else is going on here.

    I didnt believe the stories about porn on the cover of the songbook or brothers going apostate and leaving means songs they wrote will be taken out

    but this explanation actually gives that theory credence.

    I see the GB is arranging Bible discussion to mirror their own sex lives:

    "It takes preparation and self-discipline to make a meaningful comment in 30 seconds".

    So, you get a 3-minute bible reading assignment, and the school overseer has to spend 2 minutes talking about it? That makes sense.

    That #3 sounds like a good excuse to finally remove myself from the school. I wasn't in drama in school for a reason, I'm sure as hell not doing it in a cult.

    The assistant should be a member of the student’s family or a brother in the congregation.

    Hey I call no fair. I wanted that hot 25 year old pioneer sister for my assistant.

    Beginning January 1, 2015, the arrangement for congregations to use the first Saturday of each month to concentrate on starting Bible studies will be discontinued. Instead, publishers may offer magazines as they do on other Saturdays. We can offer Bible studies anytime during the month, using magazines or other study publications.

    They finally figured out that nobody offers bible studies on Saturdays. That would require committment to go back.

    From now on, when I comment my Hi lites, I will borrow some time from my spouse and we shall give a full 1 minute family comment

    Another reason for the revision: Many expressions and phrases that are used in the current songbook were drawn from the earlier edition of the New World Translation. Those lyrics must now be adjusted to correspond with the wording of the revised edition.

    Oh for goodness' sake! It doesn't matter! Stop piddling about with the songs!

    As for the No. 3 talk for Brothers - they have to do a demo with an assistant? Hahahaha! Now they'll have a taste of what the sisters have had to go through since forever!

    The brothers aren't used to cancelations from householders.

    They'll have to get used to it
