    Thanks for that clarification, Rattigan "The term "Borg" was used because it was a short form of Brooklyn ORGanization. And it stuck because it fit the Borg hive mind."

    I found this is a post on JWN "The WT revised edition of Jesus words


    "Anyone who does not honour the organization does not honor the Father, Jehovah. Very truthy I tell you, anyone who reads the Watchtower and Awake faithfully, identifies themselves with the Brooklyn based organization, follows all its rules and spreads the message of imminent armageddon (don't forget to fill out your hours) may or may NOT come under judgement, but has possibly passed from death to life."John 5:23 WT style"

    And a post about what BORG means from long ago on JWN: https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/113103/what-does-term-borg-mean
