Knights Templar logos and "cross and crown' on old Watchtower covers!!!
by Witness 007 inthe old watchtowers {see proclaimers book} had a middle-ages knight with a lance on it in one corner.
also the "cross and crown" was visable in the other corner.
if you research "cross and crown knights templar" on the net, you find that this was a masionic christian fraternity starting from the 1700's and very popular in charles russell's day.

Hi All, just finished reading this story to my kid.
The Sneetches, by Dr. Seuss
Now, the Star-Bell Sneetches had bellies with stars.
The Plain-Belly Sneetches had none upon thars.
Those stars weren’t so big. They were really so small.
You might think such a thing wouldn’t matter at all.
But, because they had stars, all the Star-Belly Sneetches
Would brag, “We’re the best kind of Sneetch on the beaches.”
With their snoots in the air, they would sniff and they’d snort
“We’ll have nothing to do with the Plain-Belly sort!”
And, whenever they met some, when they were out walking,
They’d hike right on past them without even talking.
When the Star-Belly children went out to play ball,
Could a Plain Belly get in the game? Not at all.
You only could play if your bellies had stars
And the Plain-Belly children had none upon thars.
When the Star Belly Sneetches had frankfurter roasts
Or picnics or parties or marshmallow toasts,
They never invited the Plain-Belly Sneetches
They left them out cold, in the dark of the beaches.
They kept them away. Never let them come near.
And that’s how they treated them year after year.I thought Dr Seuss must have known all the stuck up, high and mighty dubs i have ever met in my life

Finally I get to introduce myself .
by Nick! inon october 6th i registered in this forum, and gave a brief description of my personal experience, promising i would expand later.
the time has gone by very rapidly, other different priorities have kept me away from this forum, which i will not cover otherwise i would take even more time going down to the core of the subject.
my objective, in this forum, is to be of help to others who might be at a loss and who are confronted with the difficult issue of being loyal or leave the organization.

Great post. took a while to read. the anonymity bit is so true a sad fact for most here to live in the shade for fear of what?? it's wrong to have to live like this, shows the wicked power they have. i also have known a number of anointed and for a fact they were never asked to contribute. MW

How was child molestation handled before 1996?
by neverendingjourney inas i recall, the abhor what is wicked article came out in 1996. in it, the society outlined their new child abuse policy, namely that known child molesters could never hold any positions of responsibility in the congregations anymore.
from what i understand, there were letters to the bodies of elders and special c.o.
instructions that further clarified the new position on handling child sexual molestation.

The RUSSELL PARADOX
by Terry inpredestination was jehovah's plan for man.
to heaven or to hell you were assigned.. how troubling this must be!.
wondering where in wise jehovah's plan your mother spent eternity; a bright and sensitive lad might ruminate at night on matters weighing heavy on his heart; why babies died and mothers went away and what might be your destiny in god's grand scheme of things.. the ironies in life!
