I have been looking everywhere I can think of to find out which president or what year the Watchtower Society first celebrated the Memorial, or The Lord's Evening Meal with no success.
Does anyone know the answer?
Thank you.

CTR on New Light -
Zion's Watch Tower (February 1881 WTR p. 188): “If we were following a man undoubtedly it would be different with us; undoubtedly one human idea would contradict another and that which was light one or two or six years ago would be regarded as darkness now: But with God there is no variableness, neither shadow of turning, and so it is with truth; any knowledge of light coming from God must be like its author. A new view of truth never can contradict a former truth. “New light” never extinguishes older "light," but adds to it. If you were lighting up a building containing seven gas jets you would not extinguish one every time you lighted another, but would add one light to another and they would be in harmony and thus give increase of light: So is it with the light of truth; the true increase is by adding to, not by substituting one for another.”

Doctrine, Disfellowshipping and the IRS
by OrphanCrow ini watched an episode of "lie to me" on netflix that piqued my curiosity.. .
in the episode truth or consequences, a cult leader is investigated by the irs to determine if his cult has tax exemption or not.. one of the criteria that has to be met in order to be a legitimate 'church' or 'religion' in the eyes of the irs is that the members have to display "genuine belief'.. here is the portion of the script that speaks of this:.

Did CT Russell use the term "Light" in his ministry?
by FFtruther144 ini mean it in the sense of: "light" = "truth" = "knowledge".
as the wtbts uses it in "we have received 'new light'...".
if anyone knows of one or two specific instances, and maybe where they can be found, i would appreciate it.. blondie?

A quick peek at the most embarrassing facts gleaned from PYRAMIDOLOGY and " Jehovah's Witness"
by Terry inmeasuring the great pyramid of egypt reveals exact prophetic dates.. _______________.
that was the crackpot theory of so-called pyramidologists.. among the men who promoted this silly idea was the founder of the watchtower publishing corporation, pastor c.t.russell.. he did not originate pyramidology, but he copied the work of the astronomer royal of scotland, professor charles piazzi smyth.
as well as another fellow named john taylor (the great pyramid (1859) and built a grand bit of humbug theology.

Frieking Bethel Heavies/COs and their second rings!
by lambsbottom indude, every picture i see of any bethel heavies or gb members (a lot of cos also) have them wearing a second huge gold ring!
this is a clear sign of "hey i'm a bigshot!
" you just dont see that in interviews of celebrities or politicials.

It is said that Fred Franz wore a Masonic Ring.
I wonder if any of these rings are signets of an organization other than the Watchtower?

Can a slingshot hit harder than a handgun? (Self-defense research oddities)
by Terry inas you've probably guessed, i'm interested in almost everything.. whether that is good or bad, i dunno.. but, recently i started researching ways of defending myself against bad actors.
(no, not keanu reeves.).
even though i live in texas--i just have no comfort at all about the conceal carry handgun scenario for myself.. i've explored alternate scenarios.. i purchased a rather wicked folding pocket knife, but--i kept thinking to myself how i didn't really want to bleed somebody.
