Had Enough
Hello Dear Maximus:
Again I have to thank you with all my heart for your untiring effort in helping those entrapped by this overbearing taskmaster, the borg.
I cannot express enough how invigorating it is to be free from the shackles of guilt-trips and manipulation. I hold such anticipation in the further enlightenment this book will provide for those still trapped inside and for ones like me who are thirsting for more ammunition to expose the borg for what it really is doing.
I know how much the books of Ray Franz and now the book of James Penton that I'm starting, have just blasted my eyes open, as painful as it was at first because of the deeply entrenched dependency I had on the borg. BUT what a feeling of relief once I recovered from the initial shock of what I was finding out. The exposure of the borg is now what I hope for the most, to be able to release those still being mesmirized by the borg's empty promises.
I look forward to the release of this book, and appreciate the suggestion of Farkel to ask our local libraries to stock this and the books of Ray and James.
This book certainly sounds like an effective part of the artillary needed to break open the protective wall the WTS has been hiding behind.
Total thumbs up on this one.

umm, not to start anymore demon panics, but that ouija title kinda jumps out from the other titles - whats that about?
and yes, i would be interested in more scholarly meticulous essays heavy on documented detail and light on hyped-up, flashy Fox-style exposés.

Hi Moxy,
It looks like the book, "The Ouija Board : A Doorway to the Occult"
is still available.At Amazon, an editorial review said about this book:
"Without sensationalism, Edmond C. Gruss demonstrates - through one
startling case after another that these dangers are all too real. He
traces the occult ancestry of the Ouija board and explores possible
sources of messages,...."One of the customer reviews said "This book may seem a little bit
freaky at times!"Sounds too scary for me!

Thanks Maximus.

G'day Maximus,
Thanks for the news.
What has been needed is a meticulous documentation of the organization, from the standpoint of a professional scholar who cannot be easily tarred with the label of an insider or a disgruntled elder who was not recognized.
I guess this new book (new release ) will supplement our personal libraries in the section alongside Franz and Penton. Still for those just starting down the exit ramp, don't you think? The next shelf in our bookcase at home needs to have some of the 'Nourishment of the Spirit' titles.Please let us know release date. We'll encourage Koorong to stock it here in Oz.
Cheers,

Has this book been released yet? I see where this thread was started in July 2001. I'm sorry if I missed an updated thread on this, but I'm still pretty new and learning my way around.

I believe the answer to your question is YES. It is: "Jehovah's Witnesses: Their Claims, Doctrinal Changes, and Prophetic Speculation. What Does the Record Show?" by Edmond C. Gruss
You can get it from Randy's FREEMINDS site - see the link at the bottom of the page.
Even newer is "Cults and the Occult"
which I was unaware of until I researched the answer to your question. -

Wow! Thanks Nathan, I really appreciate it.
