  When a thought to do something nice for someone comes up (especially for your mother), DO IT. To Hell with the consequences. You won't regret it.

  Did Rutherford have Russell liquidated?

  read the following and think about it.

  why the need for a coded message?

  also, rutherford had been dismissed from bethel by russell just that year and was working as a lawyer for a department store in los angeles when russell conveniently just happened to die.

  Was Simplification the Downfall of the Watchtower?

  by NotBlind in

  a thought i had daydreaming while at the recent convention .

  old timers in the organization often reminisce about the way the wts was many years ago.

  attending a convention meant (a) getting hot meals, (b) orchestra music before and during sessions, and (c) two, three, or even four dramas.

  I don't think the Watchtower has scene it's downfall yet. They are far from dead. Even with all the losses they have endured they still have a very strong (brainwashed) core. Most of the active people who are dubs today never heard a piano play in the hall or sang out of a pink song book and they could care less if anyone feels bad about those losses.

  While I don't identify myself as a Unitarian Universalist I have attended numerous times two different UU churches in my area and have been through their "intro" meetings. The people are generally well educated, open minded and quite fantastic. I am slow to join anything but when I get the urge to meet with others on a spiritual path, sing songs and feel like being part of something larger (besides when in nature) I visit one of these two churches. They keep a visitor name tag for me there. Two books you might read if you are interested in the UU approach to the Trancendental are: Finding Your Religion - when the faith you grew up with has lost it's meaning and A Chosen Faith - an introduction to Unitarian Universalism. Take care.
