I think I know what the GB is doing
by HowTheBibleWasCreated inread:.
but if ever that evil slave says in his heart, ‘my master is delaying,’b 49 and he starts to beat his fellow slaves and to eat and drink with the confirmed drunkards.
hmm... let's see is anyone on the governing body a strict master and a drunkard?

How many different "rules" do Jehovah's Witnesses have to obey? Can you count them?
by Balaamsass2 inall the big changes for jws since this last fall brought me back to this site, and got me and the wife talking.
just how many things were we not allowed to do growing up as jehovah's witnesses?
we were so used to all the rules, customs, and traditions, that we became used to them.. one site i found claims there are 141 unique rules!!

The epicenter of Friday’s metro-area quake was around Watchtower's former Mountain Farm in Lebanon, NJ
by was a new boy in'the epicenter of friday’s metro-area quake was around the sleepy, tiny, agricultural town of lebanon, nj — where the temblor sent residents running home from work to check their houses and loved ones.. the us geological survey confirmed that the rare historic 4.8 earthquake struck around 10.23 a.m. near the small borough in hunterdon county — just a stone’s throw from donald trump’s national golf club in bedminster, where a 2.0 magnitude aftershock was felt shortly after.. the incident caused buildings to shake everywhere from the big apple to pennsylvania, connecticut and delaware.. “i was working from my home office in town, and everything started falling off the shelves,” lebanon mayor james pittinger told the post.
“i felt a shake like i’ve never felt in the 30 years i’ve lived here.. “it was one of the craziest things i’ve ever experienced.”.

Disaster preparedness
by ElderBerry inas your family considers its disaster preparedness plan, please ensure that the secretary has up-to-date contact information for you and your emergency contact.
also, we have re- peatedly seen good results when brothers and sisters are prepared with go bags and are ready to obey direction when they face various kinds of disasters.
please be sure you have a go bag, and review its contents at least once a year.

JW Expanded Volunteer Activities?
by doinmypart ini think the gb needs to expand publishers' volunteer activities beyond door knocking.. gb has shifted away from door-knocking to more varied forms of witnessing and no longer counting time for publishers.
my prediction is that the gb will start encouraging jws to participate in broader community volunteer efforts: clean-up drives, food banks, senior citizen support, and other non-proselytizing activities.
this move could help them gain goodwill with government agencies and the public.. expanding volunteer activities could significantly shift how jws are perceived by the wider community.

if they are going more mainstream.
i imagine the first recommendation was a name change.
