  Ray Franz's statement about Fred Franz is referenced here:

  http://www.letusreason.org/JW39.htm

  According to Raymond Franz, only Fred Franz had "sufficient knowledge of the Bible languages to attempt translation of this kind. He had studied Greek for two years in the University of Cincinnati but was only self taught In Hebrew." Raymond Franz, Crisis of Conscience (Atlanta: Commentary Press, 1983), 50

  The above quote can be found right after the first citation of the Walsh trial transcripts. In the second citaton of the trial transcript, Fred couldn't read the OT in Hebrew.

  If things keep going on at the same rate they will soon only be able to talk to one another.

  Tht won't work either, what with all of the marking ging on within the congregations.

  Just finished reading 'The Crucible'

  you know, by arthur miller?

  well, it's a big deal for me because when i was in school i was assigned to read it, and my mom put a stop to it, going so far as to write a note to the teacher explaining that i couldn't read it because it had witchcraft in it.

  there was a bit of back and forth with the teacher over that.

  Of course it depends upon what part of the world in which a jw lives, but I can easily see this play being forbidden by the elders. SD-7's mom may have objected to the references to magic in the play, but the Watch Tower higher ups who instructed her to object had different reasons. I think they were trying to hide from the obvious comparison of the legalism in the play and the organization.

  some groups were just better, earlier in their careers.

  for others they got better as they moved along.

  the beatles got better and better.. but for others like rod stewart for example.

  hi guys,.

  i call myself a lurker, but it's really been a short time since i've known about this site...it's only been five days.

  i discovered this site while doing personal research on the topics of porneia, oral sex, and mutual masturbation, and found a thread on this site about it.

  Welcome! A fade should be easy once you graduate and start a new career. You can find a job and move away. In the meantime, read Steven Hassan's Combatting Cult Mind Control before releasing any snippets of information to your family. There's a particular way to awaken those under mind control.

  If you want to read more abut the true nature of the Watch Tower, check out jwfacts.com, freeminds.org, and watchtowerdocuments.com.

  I've emailed Cedars my comments from home just as I posted them on the blog last night. I don't know why my ISP would be associated with spam.
