KrAzYkEnT:
I am one absolute genius watchtower troll, aren't I, not to speak of my ability to foresee the future.
Just think about it. I was smart enough to post a request asking former Bethelites to post the authorships of various WTS publications, with sufficient knowledge and foresight to lay a trap for a self-centered, self-engrossed Maximus, knowing that he would half-read and misinterpret my post as an attack on his and Barbara Andersen's posts.
Then, I even foresaw that self-important Maximus would childishly threaten to leave the DB and insinuate that he is so important here that he should be allowed to make whatever slanderous comments he chooses, without the slandered party having a right of rebuttal.
Then, I foresaw that 'ol humble Max would end his post with a pretentious statement that I wouldn't be getting an autographed copy of his soon to be released book.
With all this foresight, maybe I should quit working as a troll for the WTS and start working for Miss Cleo!
KK, I see the behind-the-scenes heat (which proves one of my points) has you quickly distancing yourself from your first post. Damn, that's what happens when you get in too big of a hurry and post on the right moral side before checking to find out that all your buddies are on the other side of the creek. That'll teach you to check with them first next time.

EDIT: Rather than burn one of my limited number of posts, I'm replying here to KK's post below.
KK: I realize that English is not your first language, so allow me to explain why I purposefully chose the word "distancing".
It doesn't mean you suddenly switched your position and jumped to the other side of the creek to join your friends. No, you can't do that, too many people have already read your first post. Your only option to retain your friends, and to retain credibility to onlookers, is to now throw as much shit on this side of the creek as you can and build up a wall which "distances" your from where you found yourself earlier.
BUT, don't worry about "word meanings". You aren't the first one in this thread to misinterpret word meanings.
Look back, and see that Max also took offense to my use of the word "crumb" in the thread title. He misinterpreted "crumb" as a "qualitative" judgment of information provided to this DB by former Bethelites. Well, "crumb" is not a qualitative "measure". It is a "quantitative" measure. It means "a small piece of something larger", which fit the point that I was trying to make perfectly.
But again, don't blame Max. He is "untouchable". It's all my fault. Just like when an Elder screws up at the KH. Whichever "publisher" is closest to the scene of the crime, that's the one that will have to take the fall for the sake of protecting the "glorious one's" reputation.
