What the Babylon book is missing? That book is one of the reason I am still messed up over being a witness. So, since it never existed, my past must not have existed. Wow, perhaps I really did have a happy, fear free, childhood after all.

The "Your Will be done on Earth" book is missing as well. That was on the 99 CD but is not on the 2001 CD. Published in 1958 at the height of the cold war, it explains all about the "King of the North" and the "King of the South" being America and the Soviet Union. I was surprised that it was on the previous CD actually - "Then is Finished the Mystery of God" was notable by it's absence on the 99 CD, and that was published 8 years later than the "Your Will" book. Like many of the other Fred Franz books, it is now an embarrassing testament to his crazed imagination and has been discarded quietly.

One more time:
I believe the real reason for removing the book is because it provides a wealth of information regarding the Neo-Babylonian period. You can in fact use this one publication to discredit the Societies erroneous date of Jerusalem's destruction by Neguchadnezzar in 607 BCE. This publication with the help of a couple of others in fact shows that the total reigns of the Neo-Babylonian kings was in fact 87 years which would support the true date of the destruction which took place in 587 BCE. When this book was published a great deal of scholarly work was done no doubt, but boy has it haunted them in the last few years with recent discoveries and the internet. In reality if the year 607 BCE (Pivotal Year) can be discredited by their own publications then 1914 has no basis nor des anything else that they might say. Remove the foundation and all will eventually fall. They are very clever. Most JWs do not have a clue as to the great lengths the Society has gone through to suppress this information, however they are aware that the average JW will not spend the time to research these thigs because they can barely keep up with what is required reading and study.

Thank you Olympiad - I was wondering why you were cut off mid sentence! Fascinating stuff!! You can't really compare the Revelation Climax book to the two previous commentaries on Revelation, there is much much less detail in the newer book.

Where can I get a copy of the CD?... I'll send my donations later ... I just want to have the 2001 CD for research... and going to the hall and order one is not an option.

Olympiad,
You say that using the 'Babylon the Great' book plus a few others you can prove the Chaldean dynasty lasted for 87 years from their own publications. Do you have the page references of this and the other books??
I recently had a conversation with an older JW relative about 607/587 and the result was he gave me the Aid book and Insight book with reference to the sections on Chronology. It would be great to prove him wrong from their own publications rather than my 'worldly' publications!!!
Many thanks.
City.
