I just realized, this book doesn't read well when you skim and skip around. I really want to start and finish this book. lol I was skiming through and the info does not fit nicely. I guess I'll start from the begining. Over looking chapter one as someone sugguested. I did read a couple pages and did see that it doesn't really tie in. I'll come back and read that part.
by the way, I guess I am planting some seeds. I'm secretly blogging stuff with scriptures of verses not found in NWT (or many other "easiser to read" Bibles. They don't see it yet, but they seem to like the verses. Maybe they do not know it is missing from theirs. :D.
I'm actually not feeling bad anymore doing that. -

I took my lunch hour and went to pick it up. Gosh it is a big book! I wonder, reading the book say even just 30 min a day.. how long that would take me. I'm not in the JW's version of "truth" but I am interested in seeing what a former member has to say. For those who have read it, do you find the book accurate from your standing?

Okay, so I just checked my UPS status of Crisis of Conscience. It just arrived! But now I have to wait for the end of the work day to pick it up at the Barnes and Nobels. I hope it was worth the wait. I've heard mainly good about this book. The suspence is killing me! lol Just in time for the weekend. I think I'll be spending a lot of time in the bathroom if you know what I mean, just to read it without anyone questioning me. :-)
What would you (any one reading this) think is the best part of the book? I love to have opinions especially before I get started on it. -

Honestly, I don't always read the long posts, but I do skim through them. However this one kept my attention to read it through. I think the title Brainwashed got my attention. I enjoyed reading and actually making sense of the titles that people are given to run an organization that people actually follow.
I just got through reading this and found it quiet interesting:

A fair and reasonable question for Jehovah's Witnesses
by Gregor inyour organization has always been intently focused on "witnessing" and this includes going right up to strangers homes, knocking on their door attempting to engage them in a discussion of their beliefs.
you come prepared to point out the error of whatever faith they hold.
doctrines such as immortality of the soul, the trinity and eternal torment in hell you declare as false teachings and can back up your assertions with scriptures and skilled argument.

That is a very good question. I'll probably get shot down for asking something like that. They'd refuse to answer that question too.

When the public version comes out can someone post that too. I'm really interested in why they want to different versions coming out. What are they hiding.
