When a friend tells you things you don't hear at the KH

    Hi everyone,

    A close friend of mine enlightened me a couple of weeks ago by telling me so many things about the WT. That's how I first heard about the involvement with the UN, Russell's pyramidology (freemason symbols), dates, etc. This friend also used terms like 'mind control' and 'rank and file', which I'd never heard before in this context.

    He also has gotten hold of the new elder's book, which he isn't entitled to (not an elder). So I'm now wondering if he's also a member here or lurking around. We're both active JW currently.

    So that got me to do my own research of all these things, and I came to this site. And I've truly learned so much.

    I'd like to give a heartfelt thank you to everyone here for their research and postings. I might have read countless posts by now.

    Regards,

    Nobleheart

    From what I've heard the cat's out the box and that book is all over the net...not that I care.
