this link contains a play by play of russell's last days including why and how he was found dead in a toga made from sheets.
thought some may find it interesting.. http://www.gtft.org/biblestudents/pastorrussellslastdays.html.
I'm sorry but I have to disagree with some here. I have a attended a few Bible Student meetings, and found them much more free-thinking than the Witnesses; it was actually refreshing. Some emphasize CT Russell more than others, and some not at all.
One thing I really apprecited was their use of the phrase, "we would like to suggest" this or that. So one can take it or leave it, however the spirit guides them. As opposed to WT Society's forced acceptance of whatever they say.
I personnaly suspect CT Russell was murdered.
just in case you're wondering what happens to the magazines after they're left at laundromats..... it was ripped apart, with pages scattered all over the floor.
evidently, someone didn't like what they read..
I found some on a reading table at a Hospital waiting room. Since I had time, I carefully went through it writing scriptural rebuttels and other thought-provoking messages inside.
I HOPE someone examines it!!
i was reading aldous huxley's brave new world and thinking,this is what society is becoming.especially since nowadays people want to be distracted with the use of the internet and social networking sites such as facebook and twitter.i like how it says " what we desire will destroy us" because in the grand scheme of things.
it most likely will and that is a very disturbing thoought.it is shocking how he wrote the book in 1932 and it was written during the 1920's, all of what he is sayiing is becoming a scary reality..
One hundred repetitions three nights a week for four years, thought Bernard Marx, who was a specialist on hypnopædia. Sixty-two thousand four hundred repetitions make one truth. Idiots!

from associated press-.
columbia, s.c. recording artist prince is making a $250,000 donation to a nonprofit group that aims to make sure all children in a columbia, s.c., neighborhood graduate from college.. prince's drummer and columbia native john blackwell jr. made the presentation tuesday to eau claire promise zone officials.. the eau claire promise zone is a 12-neighborhood area that is part of the nationwide "promise neighborhoods" movement, modeled after the work of geoffrey canada and his harlem children's zone.. prince and the new power generation performed shows in columbia, charleston and greenville last month..
That's why I would not give a DIME to Prince (by way of anything), since he became a JW. Becasue I do NOT want a dime of mine going to that organization!!
what do you think about jw spanking their kids at the kingdom hall?
I remember it being SO common for kids to get the living you-know-what beat out of them at the Kingdom Hall. I remember certain poor kids in particular. This was a long time ago, but I would be willing to bet that those "kids" are no longer in that organization. hopefully they're not in jail, mental hospitals, or worse as a result.
Free at last! Thank God!
...and i think it's starting to show.. i started a thread the other day about being hounded after several years of having successfully(?
) faded.
i've been taken aback a bit the recent developments but i'm making a new strategy...one that depends more on sticking to my guns and laying the cards on the table.
"... but what exactly did I sign that says they can keep any info. on me?"
If I may answer. Nothing. In fact, I will go one further, what did anyone sign when supposedly "joining" the organization? Nothing!
So, if you signed nothing going in, why sign anything to leave?? I didn't, and wouldn't. I refused to play their game.

I belive that most newcomers ("growth") are in 3rd world countries. Or people from those countries, who imigrated to the States. Too many people in "western" countries are wise to the Society's tricks.
was at the kingdumb hell yesterday after a gap.. paragraph 11 planted the seed in the sheeples' heads for this.. remember last weeks study, where martha was quoted as saying: "i know he will rise in the resurrection on the last day.
" (jo 11: 24) the term "last day" was explained as applying to the millennium, in the same way as "judgment day" for those receiving an earthly resurrection.. now for paragraph 11 - i noticed some bemused faces, as usually john 6 is avoided in articles discussing earthly resurrection:.
" "the bread that i shall give is my flesh," he said.
The only thing SHEEPish about them, is there willingness to be SHEARED.
for a group that claims not to believe in hell, why do jws fear satan and demons so much?
a quick search on my 2003 wt cd reveals over 14,000 references just to satan's name..what is the worst thing satan could do to a jw?
They need a Bogeyman to SCARE them into their Mother's "loving" arms. And hold them there!
