i'm still trying to locate material for uncle b's research project.
i need scans of any anti-russell booklets, books, articles published between 1886 and 1904. can you help me?.
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!
when a bank fails, it is legal for that lending institution to perform a "bail-in" (rather than a bailout) for itself.. .
the first sign or signal to the depositor is a red flag moment easy to recognize.
the atm is "out of cash"..
Wow! I never knew that. Thanks for the heads up, Terry!

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.
1,000 years well spent 1942-1946.. .
this booklet was written by ray marsh and others while inmates of chillicothe prison.
as jehovah’s witnesses, they refused to serve in the military during world war ii and therefore were sentenced to several years in prison.. .
Thanks, Atlantis! I never heard of this booklet before. This is a great find!

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."
the last 2 1/2 years have been extremely stressful.
while the rest of the world was dealing with covid, i was also dealing with cancer.
in fact it seems none of my doctors knew about it.
So sorry you had to go through all that, but I'm very glad you are doing better and are still here to keep us on our toes. Best of luck to you and yours!
there's a new documentary series on netflix regarding the flds.
fundamentalist latter day saints.
anyone watch it yet?
I watched it and noted several similarities between the FLDS and the WT. The most disturbing was the insistence that the organization be obeyed even if the instructions don’t make sense or fit in with what the person feels to be right and just.
a pimo elder at bethel has come forward with a special message posted on reddit.. https://www.reddit.com/gallery/v9mgao.
the dated pictures attached are "proof conclusive" that this is for real.
no outside guests are allowed inside bethel at this time.
The original post has a distinct “Six Screens” flavor about it. While I don’t doubt that the substance has the ring of at least a kernel of truth, it’s a bit strident and bombastic for my taste. Hair on fire, if you will.
I will say it was entertaining, but as others have pointed out, it’s not really proof of anything. No smoking gun here.
