Interesting hypothesis. Even if proven correct, does anyone suggest we reset the calendar yet again?

I got an email from Amazon saying the book had substantial revisions and updates and that I should download it again. I haven't had a chance yet to read it again. Could you give us a rundown on the revisions?

The first is a VICE documentary from August 1, 2021 about WT's policies regarding child abuse and how their 2-witness rule effectively protects child molesters and enables them to continue to abuse children over and over, sometimes numerous children over many years. It briefly touches on the blood transfusion policy, but the child abuse issue is clearly the focus. Mark and Kimmy O'Donnell and Barbara Anderson explain their motivations and why they are now activists. The Palmer Congregation child abuse letters are mentioned as well.
The second is the May 31, 2018 episode of the A&E news documentary "Cults and Extreme Beliefs" that highlights the JW's, hosted by Elizabeth Vargas.
Both are well worth watching.

I have a PDF of a 50-page booklet titled "Some Facts and More Facts about the Self-Styled "Pastor" Charles T. Russell (of Millennial Dawn Fame)" by Rev. J. J. Ross, printed in 1913. The last few pages contain ads for other anti-Russell booklets and pamphlets. I do not know if copies of any of these other items still exist.
If this would be of help, PM me your email and I'll send it to you.
Good luck with your research!

Ex-Elder Joe Talks to JW's "Babies enemies of God"

Very nice interview. I was expecting them to run you off any moment. At least this bunch seems willing to listen to what you had to say. Too bad all they could come up with was the same ol' excuses. Still, maybe you got them thinking about the stupidity of saying babies are "enemies of God." Sheesh!
Not to complain, but your video is flipped horizontally (left to right reversed). That's easily fixable and might remove the distraction of seeing the writing on the sign reversed. If you search for "flip video," several free solutions should pop up.
It happens a lot with selfies when the setting on an iPhone is set to "Mirror Front Camera." To stop that, go to Settings > Camera > Composition and deselect Mirror Front Camera.

I can promise that I will put exactly the same amount into the new contribution box as I put into the old contribution box. My contributions will therefore be twice as much as before: double zero.

Experiences with kiss up kick down Jehovahs witnesses
by hoser inhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/kiss_up_kick_down.
i’ll go first.. in a previous congregation we had a pioneer couple that have since gone on to be gilead graduates and are now either in circuit work or translation.
they checked all the boxes off the societies list so they were exemplary.

WokenfromJWcult: If you want to turn them in but don't want to get involved personally, PM me the details and I will anonymously report them myself. I can't stand cheaters and fraudsters who hide behind religion.

If you have to sue a "brother" to make him honor a signed contract, it is HE who is "bringing reproach," not the victim who needs to be made whole.
A JW may well be forced to resort to "worldly courts" for justice if the congregation won't help. That very refusal to hold members accountable also "brings reproach."
