    Hi There, I am a ex-jw (unbaptised) who now assists people out of this dangerous cult. I have of recent day's lost my supplier of Watchtower literature, I use to receive it regularly as you all would know, a JW will not accept copies they need to see the real thing before they will even listen. I remember once an Elder told a guy I was helping that I had a printing press (I left copies of pages with this guy, even though I showed him from their own publications) in my house and that I would get their publications change a sentance or two then print it to look exactly like their publications. Anyway, thank God this guy had the insight to come knocking on my door one night and demanded to see the printing press. I invited him him and said feel free to search the house, even look under the beds. I do not own nor have I ever owned a printing press. At the end of his search he had to confess that I did not have a printing press, and what the Elder told him was total lies. We sat down for a few hours I brought out the original books with photo copies of pages, and we went page by page through. As you would expect this guy had a concience and did leave the Watchtower. Anyway, back to my original request, my supplier has become inactive and no longer can supply me with Watchtower and Awake magazines. I am located in Australia and willing to pay postage and cover cost of any english based literature. If you can help please feel free to PM. Thanks and Regards, Steven

    Welcome to the board. There have been alot of Aussies on this board over the years, perhaps you will find someone local that can supply them to you. Im sure mailing overseas is quite expensive.

    ...or befriend a neighbour who is on the RV list. You can find them by following the witnesses out in field service.

    Welcome to the board!!!!!!!!! That elder was crazy. That is one of the nuttiest things I have ever heard. Glad you were able to get the guy to see the real light.

    Looking back on my previous post, I can see the humor in it. I was actually serious. Maybe the web.

    Now I'll be humorous, use a PO box or they'll be knocking on your door more frequently.

    You can post here for specific books and people might be willing to send them.
    I would suggest that you actually go to the Kingdom Hall and ask for the literature.
    You can read the sign to figure out when the meeting ends, walk in and go straight
    to the counter. When they refuse to give you something, ask them "Doesn't your
    organization offer this literature free of charge to the public? I have a list, I intend to
    read these." When they say they have to order them, say you will call every month
    to see if your books came in.

    Added- OH, every time you are there, ask "What hardcover books do you have left?
    Let me have those, and a New World Translation, too."

    Welcome merit, officially you can't be called an ex JW since you never were baptised you never really were a JW, I have been out of the dubs for a long time so I don't know if they do subscriptions to home adresses as they used to but I am sure with so many magazines around you will find a way to get them. Congrats for helping a dub see the light about the "truth".

    "Doesn't your organization offer this literature free of charge to the public? I have a list, I intend to
    read these."

    And add "I also intend to put a donation in the box to offset printing costs." Put a slug in the box.
