Changes are difficult from within and without

 

In big organizations like ours, making changes, even when they're clearly needed, can be tough. This is true for businesses, government agencies, and even our religious group. We follow lots of rules and laws in the United States to function properly.
 
As people in our organization get older, they can be even more against change. It's just how people are - we like things to stay the same. This can be especially hard in big groups because everyone's used to doing things a certain way, and change can be confusing. Sometimes, our leaders tell us to just follow the rules and not ask too many questions, even if we don't understand them.
 
Our organization is made up of people who speak different languages, and that comes with its own traditions and ways of thinking. In big groups, it can be hard to make sure everyone knows about and understands the changes we need to make. Sometimes, there are misunderstandings, and that can slow things down. Our main way of communicating is through our Watchtower Study, but sometimes even our leaders don't fully understand what's going on. Still, they tell us to listen and obey.
Have you ever been to a Kingdom Hall that was sold? Do you meet on Saturdays? And what about the pressure to not go to college but to work for our organization, even though it's really hard to get in? There's a reason for all of this. In big organizations, we have to decide how to use our time, money, and people for different projects. Making changes can mean moving things around, and that can be complicated.
 
But there's another side to this. Sometimes, our organization might resist changes that governments or courts want us to make because we're used to doing things our way. In big groups, we can get stuck doing things the way we always have, even if new ideas could be better. It's called "inertia," and it can make change hard, even if it's a good idea

The Siege of Eternity by Frederik Pohl My rating: 2 of 5 stars This book continues the Eschaton series, yeah you going to see that in the header. There really isn't much to say in this second book. All we know that two civilization is at war and the earth is just one of many civilizations where it has been targeted for assimilation to the "Beloved Leaders" empire. the interesting part is thru out the series is the Eschaton. I decided to look it up. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End_time At least 2 advanced races/species are fighting to see who will rule... eternity. Frederick Pohl apparently believed in the Big Crunch theory and expressed his concept in this series the advanced species have given religion to the subjected races or species the other side's beliefs are not so credible. Their religion is very similar to Human beliefs of an afterlife which are present in the majority of cultures on our planet. In the end, the winning species and their allies or subject...
