I remember vaguely, well all hell broke loose in the late 70's regarding, Ray Franz being df'd, and the witch hunt at bethel. I was just a little kid at the time, and didn't pay much attention.
I know Ray's point of view, from what I've read on this board, and also ordered myself his book "crisis of conscience"(should be a good read)
I think back now, I remember the event happening, and the speaker talking about it at our circuit assembly, but I don't recall the reasons (BS) he gave. Or how the society, made themselves look justified, I recently threw this in my parents face, and said "how could you believe that crap and not question it, and just go on as you were", well my Mom was speechless, considering I didn't know the exact reasoning from the society's point of view, I played it pretty well.
She will be calling back, so I better be ready ......... Help please.
