I have not read any Taylor Caldwell book that I didn't like. Most of her books have been out of print for years. Some are available in Kindle format, however Testimony of Two Men and Dear and Glorious Physician are now back in print.

Captains and the Kings by Taylor Caldwell. Another interesting book by her if you can find a copy of it is The Devil's Advocate written in 1952, which is similar to 1984.

When I was baptized in 1987 at the "Trust In Jehovah" District Convention there was a talk entitled Childbearing (or it may have been Childrearing) at the Time of the End and it had a discouraging tone of having children during that time since the end was so close.

Planting seeds of thought with my JW doctor
by Faithful Witness ini have hesitated to post anything about my recent encounters with our jw doctor, because i don't really want anyone to insult her or me, for continuing to rely on her for medical care.
our family doctor is a jehovah's witness.
we were referred to her by our former bs conductor.

I'm with Band On The Run with this one. I could never go to any professional with a high level of education who is still a JW, especially someone that old and has been in the organization for a long time. I can't help thinking there is a level of dishonesty that they are holding onto to allow themselves to be part of an organization that is anti-education and them preaching that and them being in a career that requires an extensive and continually ongoing education. It demonstrates double standards and hypocrisy to me.

Many JWs are chaste or virtuous homosexuals and "in good standing"
by Rufus T. Firefly in[it gets under my skin when people post that a jw was df'd for being homosexual.
if one ever was df'd simply for being homosexual, one would have ample grounds for a lawsuit.
the comments in brackets are mine.].

Ex-elders here correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the elder's manual the Shepherding book mention that if it is found out that an individual JW spends the night at the house of a known homosexual of the same sex that would be grounds for disfellowshipping. I thought I remember seeing that in the elder's book.
