As a latecomer to this thread, I've just finished skipping thru' all 74 pages of this excellent expose.
Amazing stuff in here and well worth the several days I've spent doing so.
Thanks one and all.

Lived through Danny H incident / Trevorgate? Do you feel a bit changed?
by nvrgnbk insurely these two events/situations/happenings mean little, nothing even, to those in the real world.. but since we're witnesses( some participatory) to them, they've affected us.. alot "went down" in a relatively short period of time.. do you feel the effects have been mostly positive, an opportunity to grow perhaps?.
or do you feel adversely affected?.
what about any lasting effects( positive or negative) you think they may have on the way ex-jws interact as a community?.

Hope you don't mind the observations of a 'newbie'...as I said on another thread, I came here directly as a result of a posting on Reachout Trust that "Linda's death" was a scam.
So many people on RT had expressed sympathy to Trev soon as they heard, then the scam was revealed shortly afterwards.
It was very easy to get sucked into it - the guy Trev is clearly not welcome here any more, however it also affected how I saw things as a
'newbie' even though I registered over 2 years ago.
But because I am not part of the regular community here, you 'closed ranks' against any suspicious outsiders and for the most part my posts didn't really get into the conversation - most of them were kinda overlooked. No bother, these things happen on forums, but one person did PM me to offer a welcome and friendship.
I could give a list of credentials of some well known ex-Witnesses in the States who could vouch for my identity but I'm not sure how
'name-dropping' would go, so I haven't done that.
I felt irate at Trev getting away with it on y'all, and the deception angered me at times - sometimes a trick like that brings out the worse in people.
This whole mess has clearly rattled Trev, and got him on the run. The tragedy of Hillsborough is not, I believe, a fall back event that will him gain any further sympathy.
Not sure how often I'll post here, as maybe I caught everyone having bad-hair days, and unfortunately I just didn't feel made welcome (with the one exception).
Hopefully nothing like this will happen again on JWD... -

This book was a milestone in religious publishing. I never read anything so enlightening at this one was, at the time of publication. It was revealing, it was damning. It led to many people leaving the WT. I have an original copy somewhere and also the update. Amazing stuff indeed...
