    Thank you, Atlantis. The internet is blowing up over this! What’s next? Pants for women, birthdays and holidays, blood being a conscience matter?

    Biahi:

    Welcome! And your guess is as good as mine as to what the Tower will do next. Some are saying that the Tower is playing up to the men and trying to get on their good side, hoping the men will start reaching out for responsibility in the congregations.

    As it is now, sisters are doing just about everything.

    Atlantis!

    Romans 14:5 Paul tells the brothers that each individual should make up their own mind about “sacred days” or holidays. Take note, Governing Body!

    New light: women can identify as men. Problem solved!

    just goes to show they knew all along they were over reaching and unduly force feeding the no beard theme. Now they are trying to cover their tracks and keep down any fallout by guilt tripping the brothers not to complain but go on supporting the org. I would love to see a massive walkout! Wouldn't that be a hoot it the pimo s could stage a walkout...all show up to the meeting and at schedule intermim, all walk out! Like at the end of the video when they play it. Double Dare those PIMO

    Indeed. How long before JWs begin to realize that their religion is just Christianity with 50% less Christ?

    Bit late for my congregation, lots of bros have had beards for a few years now. Including elders.

    The anti beard thing has been flogged for a hundred years, and was only brought in by da Judge to distance the organisation from Russell. It's taken them this long to realise that it is a non issue? While persecuted people for beard wearing all that time, BTW.

    NF: exactly, Rutherford wanted to make his religion different from the Bible Students and many of his changes were just that. Reject Christmas, Holidays, the cross and crown, beards, all of it.
