    Why are you promoting his book? The purpose of his books is to defend the Watchtower Society. By so doing he helps keep people in slavery. Slavery to an organization which has destroyed the lives of millions and taken the lives of thousands who have died following its ridiculous blood policies. No doubt some of those who become convinced to stay in the Watchtower due to what they read in Greg's books will die in this way as a result of their deciding to stay JWs. I believe their blood will be on Greg's hands, and on yours for promoting his books.

    Faithful, no need to be so melodramatic. Ros obviously enjoys reading and examining other's beliefs.

    Ros, thank you for the notice. I placed an order a long time ago, hopefully it will be processed.

    The Watchtower Society would say the same thing about books that vilify them. Let Greg do his thing. Information can be evaluated on its own merits. After all, we are not slaves to other's thinking anymore, are we?

    Vive la Greg! And freedom of expression!

    Thanks ros for informing us about his new book.

    Hello, Faithful2Jah

    Pardon the advice, but wouldn’t it be wiser to read the book before asserting as you have here? Let’s see, what’s that saying again?

    F2J if we placed restrictions on what sort of books we could read or talk about, then would we not be doing the same thing that the Organization does?

    Outside of the Organization there is freedom to read and believe whatever you wish to. And many here would welcome any solid arguments for the WT. If their most sound arguments can be debated and shown to be lacking, then that only strenghthens truth.

    Sometimes criticism here of the WT is IMO not entirely balanced, accurate and fair. Books like Stafford's reveal the importance of technical accuracy when debating (read: wasting time with) well informed Witnesses (read: arrogant ***holes).
