Have you already read James Penton : Apocalypse Delayed ?
It is no longer in print, but a wonderful book on the subject was written in 1978, by a former Bethel member, Barbara Grizzuti Harrison, titled "Visions of Glory". That was the first one I read about the JWs. I found it in my local library. I asked a used book store to make a search for it, because I wanted to own it, found it, re-read it, just wonderful.
What about the oldie "30 years a Watch Tower Slave" by Schnell (William).
What about "The Orwellian World of JWs" by Heather and Gary Botting.

Hello SilentLambs,
Received the tape of the radio conversation you had and
just listened to it. First, it was great to actually hear your
voice and the voice of Jeff, you both sound like nice people...
You did a great job explaining the situation.
Together with the tape, they sent me a few brochures concerning the JWs, that I found very interesting and well done.
Keep up the good work !

I like that post of yours better than the first one.
I see red when it even remotely seems that someone tries to find excuses for these criminals who prey on kids.
Sorry for my outburst
But don't you think that such molesters should be reported to the authorities, so everybody is protected, not just the families in the cong. ?Celia

...Eventually Jehovah gives to those few what they deserve...Do you mean that as a society we should do nothing to protect ourselves from criminals ? Just wait, God will render His judgement some day, when the criminal is dead ?
Sick ! What about the innocent children who are abused and molested ?
Shouldn't we all try our best to protect them and punish the perpertrators ?
I say, shoot them on sight ! -

Is this a apostate website
by robertK innothin on this website is positive, its all anti-witness!!
it helps nobody and does no good, and is for breaking down not building up, is there any righteous witnesses out there??

.... I thought I found something pretty cool, I pity all of you,
you lost the only pure thing in this world. and with that you
have lost you freedom!! Jehovah offers freedom!....
Yeah, this is a pretty cool place, full of wonderful people and some nutcases here and there...
Tell us, what's pure about the Watch Tower B and T Society ?
The way they lie and twist scriptures and hide pedophiles from the "worldly" authorities ?
When the good people here found out the truth about "The Troof"
they also found freedom again !
God may offer freedom, but you seem to equate God with a publishing empire with headquarters in Brooklyn.
Wake up, open your eyes, smell the coffee, and all that. -

by Englishman inhere's a pic of my family outside our house in weston super mare, england.. .
according to jehovah's witnesses, we are all going to be destroyed at armageddon for various unspecified misdemeanors.

WT & Awake Subscription Procedure
by Gopher ini moved into a new area several months ago, and my subscriptions to the watchtower and awake magazines expired.
(note: i'm baaad, not attending meetings in my new area.).
so it'd be easy to renew my subscription, right?
-
Celia
Who can tell me what the "full amount" for a sub. to Awake! and
The Watchtower is these days ? When I used to susbscribe, I gave
the ladies 10 $. Wasn't it enough ? It was always so awkward, because they would not suggest any amount, even when I asked them.
Thanks for your answer

[I read Psalms 37 and it gives the hope of living forever on earth. Sounds simple enough for me. I've read posts here that say that
it is not true, that we will all go to heaven.]Hello there,
Does it really matter what one believes will happen after
his/her death ? Ok, living forever on earth may sound attractive to you and others. Being a ruler in heaven at the side of Jesus and God may sound like the way to go for others...
Or, dead is dead and that's the end of it...
But no matter what will or will not happen to us after our death, after the end of this wicked system of things, after Armageddon, after Jesus' return, after the resurrection... etc...do you really believe that belonging to this or that religious denomination will change things one way or another ?
Do you believe that only JWs will be on earth or in paradise or wherever ?
Why ? because they followed blindly some old crooks in Brooklyn ?
Because they were unpaid, badly treated slaves and booksellers of the mighty Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society ?
Hmmmmmm.... ??? !!! -
