Crofty I don't think it will be the case of encouraging it I think it will be more of been forced into the situation. The way things are moving it certainly looks as though it is heading that way. The F&DS are fully aware of this and it about making the best out of a bad situation. My fear is if that happens with the shear volume of JWS they would easily be able to drown out the voices of sites like this making them harder to find. But then on the flip side of this wouldn't it be fun taking some of these Web sites to task on their religion.

I have read posts similar to this before. I believe with the way things are heading e.g jwtv that soon someone is going to think well if they are doing it why can't I. I'm kind of getting the feeling that perhaps the F&DS are trying to push it in this direction, with out having to back track on their former policies regarding unofficial Web sites. I can give a recent example of a congregation in Britain that was advertising on the net. Needles to say when an email was sent to them regarding Wt policies regarding individuals on the net the site was promptly shut down. So perhaps their stance on this issue is softening as 10 years ago this would of never happened. How it will effect Wt (if this is their intended purpose) with opening the doors to apostate view points and reform is another matter. Clearly Wt has realized it has to have a stronger presence on the internet and it has reacted.

What exactly do the Governing body(TM) do?
by punkofnice ina genuine question really.. do they actually make desicions or are they simple sock puppets for the lawyers?.
are they just a front (like the queen is in the uk), with little or no desicion making input?.
do they just give talks and make appearances?.

I agree I'm starting to loose track of the cases been filed. To think less than 18 months ago I never thought anything would stick to Teflon watchtower in court.

Solreform= Gosh I didn't realise there was another one. It's sort of getting to the point where I'm loosing track of them. How successful they will be is another matter. 18 months ago I really didn't think that legally jw.org could be brought to its knees by child sex abuse. That's based on their Teflon like structure that nothing would stick to them. But now I'm wondering.

VIDEO evidence of Kingdom Hall in Chile with the Flag!!
by ILoveTTATT inhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n840abckhh8&feature=youtu.be.
kingdom hall of jehovah's witnesses with flag in chile.. in chile, for its fiestas patrias celebrations, the flag must be flown in every building, otherwise, a fine is paid.
the fact that the jehovah's witnesses in chile are flying the flag in chile is against what they are normally known for, that is, political neutrality, and shows a double standard.
