just looking at some youtube videos and came across a john joseph may, a former jw who was involved in a controversy in ireland back in the late 70s i think.. it all started with a watchtower article september 15th ??.
does anyone know what the article was about?
and why so much controversy surrounding this.
Also remember you really need to underlay the above with the Kingdom Ministry Service 1980
The front page monthy 'Letter From The Governing Body' reported that there had been apostasy and disfellowshiping of some in the Bethel family and New York city area.
On page two the 'Announcements' mentioned that Raymond Franz was no longer a member of the Governing Body and of the Brooklyn Bethel family as of 22 May 1980.

I think she's looking good now with what she's wearing - bit of a tummy/hip going on which could be covered over a bit more with the jacket if it wasn't quite so tight. Nice bold necklace too (AKA Diane Lockhart in The Good Wife) - showing a nice bit of 'age appropriate' neck line too.
