Why not accept the offer to study two JW books, in return that the Caller study the Franz books? It would be fairly easy to set up a study schedule and questions.
What is the worse that could happen? Someone desparate enough for a study to agree or the Caller getting back in the car and marking your house with a big fat red A on the territory map.
Thank you for considering my moment of apostate evilness.

I tried to make that deal with my jw when he was first getting indoctrinated. You forget that they are there to teach you not the other way around. Can't use apostate stuff anyway. Hell, can't use the bible half the time either.
That would be a sure way to make them run away screaming ... NEVER TO RETURN! lol
That happened to my mom a couple times back when I was a teenager and we were out in service. Not that particular book but they wanted her to study there literature. She was not happy about that offer and there was no study. They are not even allowed to look at other religious books. That's what my mom always said to me anyway.

And this would be a bad thing how???

Give them the NBC news release off the internet of the child abuse settlements by the Watchtower society. It is off of a news site, not an apostate site ! You just might teach the witnesses calling at your door, what is really happening in their organization. Most of them still don't know about it ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper
I like the idea! But, it probably would lead to an early shut down.
A twist to your idea could be to agree to the study, and then when they arrive for lesson #1, make sure that you have a copy of Crisis of Conscience, a dictionary, and a few other historical reference books on the table ready to be referred to at any time during the study. Say nothing about the items. Wait for the right moment and then start referring to some of the books during the lesson.
Forcing it to go this way, uncovers the completely unreasonable method of tunnel vision study. It may jolt the teachers mind.

Oracle,
Have you read Crisis of Conscience?
Just curious!
I would defintely have Crisis of Conscience ready. I would have that book on the table instead of the book I am supposed to study, and I would have a modern-English King James version of the Bible instead of the New World Translation. I bet that would make them not want to come back.
If it happens now, when the hounders are merely trying to recapture me, that's when I pull out the big guns. No, not pepper spray. (I would reserve that for if they physically force me to go with them.) Even more effective would be to exploit their morbid fear of the demons. All I would need is to have Christmas decorations up (all the better if it's summer), including crosses and angels. I would also pull out my Ouija board, and start praying out loud to Satan. I would beseech Satan to have as many demons as possible possess them. As I know that demons do not possess people, I know the trick would have no real harmful effects. But, perhaps something would happen to make them think I sicced the demons on them, and that would be the last time they would pull that.
If they ever succeeded in dragging me to the Kingdumb Hell or Brother Hounder's house, I would have to pray to Satan out loud to bring in as many demons in the house as possible. Hopefully, something happens that could arouse suspicion of being possessed by demons, and they would be all too happy to let me go back to posting on this board. I know that their morbid fear of demons is probably second only to getting destroyed at Armageddon, and is totally illusory. And, if they want to play hardball...
5th Generation,
I have only read exerpts, and have had a good friend read several interesting passages over the phone. Everything I have read and heard has the ring of absolute truth.
The insider information on how the governing body operates alone should be sufficient evidence for any intelligent JW to discard the truth, as "the truth".
WT Wizard,
The demon scare tactic would certainly work - if your objective was to get rid of them. It is interesting how deep seated this morbid fear is. I actually had the fear myself at one point. I remember being convinced that the demons would enter the home if I happened to have ScoobyDoo on the TV even by accident. How times have changed!
