Amen LE! Duane magnani gave an excellent presentation using the footage from the LC where poor Verna was unaware of this allowance thought it was reviewed in last months Sept. KM.
It's sad how uninformed most JW's are and how easily swayed they are when they realize the WTS makes an allowance. Their conscientious decisions are easily changed by a mere admission from Bethel HQ. One JW whom was in attendance was so moved by Duane's presentation that she had tore her blood card up after the presentation was over!
I think the WTS is moving in the direction to end this ban but it is attempting to lay a foundation of changes that will avoid lawsuits and serious membership casualties. Much like the Gen of 1914 which is attached to 1914 they are gradually tapering off the attachments so the change will not have shock value. In the end many will still remain casualties to an unbiblical policy!
My wife grew up without a mother and her father without a wife because of it.
Praying it will end soon for us all.
