History shows that dictatorships often tighten the noose before imploding. The watchtower is no different, the end is nigh, therefore they are becoming increasingly tyrannical. Did we honestly think the shear amount of pressure that is being laid down on the watchtower would actually make them blink and become a little gentler?

Anyone can post anything in cyberspace and be relatively incognito. In my opinion (and myself included) we can lose our inhibitions a little more when we are anonymous. Recently I replied to a post regarding Islam and the so called war on terror after the Third attack on UK soil. My beliefs will not necessarily be the beliefs of others, but as we all came from a high control fundamental religion that taught us all that we had the truth and because of this, debating was a futile exercise, sometimes we don't realise that this way of life we once had has been deeply instilled in us. Thence we try to make others see things our way. This can rub many people up the wrong way, and can be perceived to be rather arrogant in nature.
Not everyone will get on, we are all individuals, although we were taught we were all one with the Borg (I'm Locutus before anyone tries to take this spot 🤣) We do not have to get along with everybody, some will have totally different personalities than others.
Personally I think the world operates just fine no matter if one gets on with another or not. No matter what happens, there is always one constant, the earth keeps spinning with all 7 billion, and growing and the universe eventually equals things out.
And as for me (United we shall be, oops old habits die hard!) I came to the conclusion that it would be best to take a step back from replying to my previous post. I realised I was arguing with anonymous individuals. When you come to this conclusion, you realise just how bazaar in surreal the whole experience can be.

Aroq all I can say is watch this space, well maybe not this space because that could take another couple of generation's too. One would name this the overlapping of the overlapped generation who lived to witness the generation that saw the first overlap of the over...oh I give up!!

Having scanned through the letter, my opinion is that this letter stinks to high heaven (pun intended) of desperation.
Reading between the lines, the Watch Tower know the numbers are dropping and by the sounds of it are in deep do do. For example, remember Chemical Ali, the defence Minister for Iraq. He told the world Iraq was winning the war, when in fact Iraq was being destroyed.
Another reason for this letter is because of the amount of judgements that are now going against the Watch Tower, and these judgements are being highly publicised.
Simply put, the Watch Tower is actually running scared, and it's happening before our very eyes, personally, I think we are watching history unfold here.
I am not one for predicting the downfall of this organization, as it is far to rich to fall overnight, however, I do think we are now seeing the org beginning the process of being on it's last legs.
We may even see the downfall in most of our lifetime's.

Welcome back. Donald Trump is President. How crazy is that?
No more crazy than the governing body announcing, not once, but twice that they are not inspired, and yet the rank and file still follow them blindly.

The positive here is that the powers that be are now starting to take notice of the extremist material that can easily traumatise a child.
The one negative is that the child still will be subjected to Sunday meetings. I'm sure the elders will put pressure on to the parent involved, and it wouldn't surprise me if this ruling will be ignored in one way or another by the parent.
After all, we were taught that if the government and it's agencies went against the teachings of Jehovah (insert governing body and watchtower) we were to defy the courts.

Yemen, being bombed on a daily basis by Saudi Arabia by the bombs Britain and the US have provided.
Syria Being bombed on a daily basis using American and British bombs.
Need I remind those who are spitting vile hatred of the totally illegal war in Iraq under the pretence of Weapons of Mass Destruction?
Just because a few crazy people are killing innocent people in the name of Islam does not mean the whole of Islam is preaching hatred. And before we start pointing fingers, let's hope our countries are free from blame. Let's hope our countries are not involved in killing innocent children on a daily basis, let's hope the bombs that are dropped daily do not hit hospitals. Although unfortunately, this is not true.
We go mad because of attacks in our country, yet we do not care about the people in the above countries. Isn't this something to be addressed?
