    Yep, about time. Looking forward to getting to know you, too.

    Any family expressing doubts? What about other congregation members? Are you hearing any negative comments about the org's focus on money, the way things have changed in JWdom, the fact that the end is way overdue, etc.?

    Welcome

    Since you've been lurking you already know it can get pretty rowdy around here.

    Hang out awhile....

    ...and don't take anything personal.

    Thanks.

    No, no major doubts. They eat the GB shit up all day long. A few times they have criticised a few decisions the org has made, but after a week or 2 they are saying how great it all is. Brainwashed? You bet.

    A few other MS in my congregation roll their eyes when money is mentioned, and few have mentioned how they dislike they new CLAM meeting. No elders have mentioned any negativity.

    The whole cong had a WTF look on their face when the new song was played a few weeks ago. At least that's a positive.

    I'm laying low, playing along with the Orgs game, lying on my report to escape notice.

    There will be a tipping point though, what it is and when it will be still remains to be seen. By the look of things recently it might not be as far off as I first thought. My guess is in 5 years time. But as I mentioned, with family still in, everything is up in the air right now.
