  Only a $25,000 reward for this guy but well worth it considering he's a JW.

  Was looking at my childhood book "From Paradise Lost to Paradise Regained" I found something interesting.

  i was showing a friend of mine what kind of books my parents allowed me to read when i was very young.

  no children books that was age related but the so called orange paradise book was my only children book i had.

  she was taken back on how violent it was and showing little kids being killed by god was just unspeakable.

  Still Totally ADD,

  What kind of people think up this shit?
  

  The Freddy Franz's of this world. He ghost wrote many of the publications of that era.

  I also remember the statement about people having their eyes and tongues waste away because they didn't believe in 1914. I think it was located a page or two from the pretty pictures.

  i want to send a disassociation letter to the elders at my old congregation.

  If you put your letter in bullet points make sure they are placed before you state you want to be DA. This will guarantee that they read the bullet points. You might want to use no more than half a dozen bullet points for your entire letter with the request for DA at the end.

  Here's an example:

  Dear elders,
  

  • Because you have defamed Jehovah with continuous false prophecies.
  • Because you have allowed pedophiles to remain in good standing in your congregations.
  • Because you have taken away the most precious time of our children's and adult lives in order to serve an organization.
  • ...
    

  I have decided to disassociate from your organization.

  Welcome, Confused3426!

  Let me recommend you getting a pdf copy of Crisis of Conscience by Raymond Franz. He was a former member of the Governing Body who got disfellowshipped for going out to lunch with a disassociated JW. This book will give you a jolt. It's not about doctrines but rather the character of the organization.

  It would be interesting if someone hacked into the bank accounts of members of the Governing Body.

  Yes, and they're in fear of me. I live in a large apartment complex mostly inhabited by JWs and I walk by them all the time. On one occasion two JW women were walking right by my car while I was in there and one told the other that I was disfellowshipped for apostasy. Right where I could hear them as if I wasn't there.

  I have a reputation here since I've circulated an anti-Witness tract 20 years ago.

  On the door with a regular knock. I didn't want them getting mad at me. Door knockers were intended for thick solid wood doors which made little sound from regular knocking.
