Need Documentation For Online Book; Help me author it

1. watchtower
2. scandals
hey there, i am putting together a personal list of jw policy changes; examples of mis-management/fraud/misrepresentation; policies that damage people and their families, such as those that protect abusers; etc., but want explicit documentation for all of it, esp.

the un scandal - (i think i have some of that on a disk somewhere) - blood policy changes/death lists (of jws who died due specifically to refusing blood); news articles, wbts predictions about the "last days", armageddon, christ's coming, pyramidology, etc.

i've read a lot of this here, there and everywhere on the net, but want to consolidate it into a concise, online book, which credits sources, etc., professionally and legally.

does anyone have any contact with oprah winfrey?

i think she could do a great show on the misrepresentation of medical and secular facts issue.

let's just visualize this show: hlc members, elders, litigants (who won against the wtbs), the author of the essay, kerry louderback-wood, the baylor u. ethics professors, the woo-hooing audience, etc.?

2. scandals
<div>if you want to cut and paste this and use it in your own campaign, promoting the "big news," please feel free to use it in any way you wish.

i'm sharing this with as many people as possible for whom it may have some impact.

i think i'm going to tweak it as an open letter to the medical community and put it in some local papers, too.

Do elders get selected because they buy a lot of literature?
by Madame Quixote in
1. jw
2. friends
i was just wondering today about who buys the bulk of the lit from the jw org.

i got to thinking that the most jw literature i ever saw anywhere was in the kh book store/library, and in our house.

my dad became an elder when i was pretty young; i think it had something to do with all the lit he used to buy at the kh, but can't be sure.
