OK I must admit the paper deal is one I have never thought of!
How many trees have been sacrificed over the last 100 years?
OK so they are not the worst offender but aren’t they part of the problem?

What is the difference between Watchtower RANSOM teaching & other religions
by jwfacts inbarbara anderson made the comment that over the last 2000 years no other religion could be found that had the same understanding of the ransom as the watchtower society.
i thought all religions believe that jesus died for our sins to be forgiven.
what is the difference between the watchtower teaching and that of other christian religions?.

The Watchtower teaches that Jesus death only covered the sins we inherited form Adam while mainstream Christianity teaches that Jesus died for all of our sins, past, present and future.

Hi yaddavadda,
First I want to say that while I personally believe in the Trinity I feel the last thing that anyone should do is insist that one must believe in the Trinity to be saved.
Personally I advise folks who come to my web site to avoid the subject of the Trinity when talking to Jehovah's Witnesses, or those who have come out of the Wathtower.
The Gospel is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Nothing more needs to be or should be added.
If there is anything on my web site that indicates that one must believe the Trinity to be saved please point it out and I will correct it immediately as that is not my belief.
As for the "wire-rimed glasses"! Well that was in the 60’s and it came on the heels of the popularity of John Denver. John Denver was a very patriotic performer who wore wire-rimmed glasses and made them popular, reportedly he also made some comments against Jehovah's Witnesses during his concerts. Imitating him by wearing wire-rimmed glasses was frowned upon in my congregation.
Perhaps it was a local issue but in the congregation I attended in the early 60’s the elders where on the watch for wire-rimmed glasses. It put one in the same category as one wearing a beard. Perhaps some other folks on the forum who where in the Watchtower in the 60’s also remember this.
Don’t forget the history of the Watchtower goes back over 100 years so we may not always be aware of everything they have taught in the past. Just because we don’t remember it does not mean it is not so.

number of remnant missing
by headmath inthe years 1931 to 1934 are important years as this is when the number of remnant peaked.
i have looked high and low on the net and there is no data for those years.. many think that 1935 was when the number of remnant peaked .
i don't think so, here is why.. quote from the babylon the great has fallen book.

Found It!
by ESTEE ini filed away the letter that i received from an elder when my mom was disfellowshipped years ago.
it turned up the other day, reminding me again of the high control, fear based beliefs the dubs have.
i resisted shunning my mom -- and sadly this letter is the reason i finally began shunning her.
