it was found by investigators lying among a pile of clothing on the floor of eugena smith's bedroom, shortly after the 33-year-old st. thomas woman was found murdered in her 9 balaclava st. home in june, 2007.. her estranged husband michael smith, 37, is on trial for first-degree murder in the city's superior court of justice.. the couple's daughter, who was three-and-a-half years old in june, 2007, wasn't home at the time.. justice peter hockin is hearing the case, which is expected to last five weeks.. the crown argued in an opening statement tuesday that eugena smith was trying to leave both her husband, and her church, just days before she died on june 7, 2007. michael smith, the crown says, thought she was having an affair.. among a mountain of evidence presented in court on wednesday, eugena's draft letter stated "i no longer wish to associate myself with the (watchtower) organization" and urged people not to persuade her to come back..

My own little GB memory
by mindmelda ini just remembered this, as it happened back in the mid 70s.
my parents had taken my younger brother and i to hear two "special" talks in salt lake city.. the featured speakers were knorr and raymond franz.. i remember being entranced by franz, who was one of the more concise speakers i'd ever heard, very sharp, and rather bored by knorr, who seemed elderly and vague.
i was about 13/14 at the time but had these very distinct impressions.. anyway, after the talks, the crowds were pressing in to get a chance to shake the speakers hands, and my 12 year old brother (who had adhd and still does) pushed impulsively through the crowd and ran smack into knorr.

Don't have a clue about them, but it seems to be another extreme Protestand group, among the thousands that exist in this movement

Do I understand the JW version of resurrection???
by insearchoftruth inhello, my wife is on again, off again studying with the jws.
i have done a lot of reading and research into the wts and want to see if i understand this correctly.. ok, the wts believes that jesus 'returned invisibly' in 1914 and threw satan out to the earth, and in 1975, wait 1994, soon, very soon, we are in the last days of the last days, armageddon will take place.
when this happens, faithful jws will either go to heaven, if of the anointed remnant or remain living on an earth which they will make a paradise over the next 1000 years.

I believe in Creative Evolution...
I believe that there was an evolution, and this is a fact according to Palaiontology and anthropology, and this evolution had a "Divine" guidance and design.
That is why I believe in God the Creator, since without plan nothing can be done

Like George's Orwell novel 1984 the party changes the history books in order to fit their current history. If they were in war with Eurasia and allies with Eustasia and now it is the opposite, the books must be according to the current present. The past didn't matter. This is how WT is changing their past in order to fit their present.
Does any average JW have access to Russell's books or Booze Jo's rainbow? Even in Kindom halls you can NOT find those books. They are very rare among JW's. That is why the CD gives only few decades only and not the entire written history of the WT. Can you imagine the impact if they could read the Finished Mystery, Thy Kindom Come, Millions now living will never die? Not to mention Angels and Women, Russells false prophecies, Occult roots, pyramidology, numerology?
Orwell said: " Everything Faded to the mist, the past was erased, the erasure was forgotten, the lie became TRUTH"

BASHING the families of disfellowshiped ones
by Pistoff inas if the first assembly day was not bad enough, talking about the greedy, fame hungry witnesses who go to college and will not get blessings from jehovah, sunday was worse.. .
i could tell the wife was not happy the minute she came through the door.
after letting her get her "lemonade" in a glass, i said, "so, no rough talks today?".

ARE YOU BEING MONITORED BY BETHEL? (not really!!)
by AllTimeJeff inthis is for anyone who cares... just my thoughts and opinions, which have slightly changed since i have left the cult.
a poster named melita said some really inappropriate things on barbara andersons thread on jaracz's stroke, which got me to finally post this, just to put it out there...... when i first left, i was scared s*itless that i was being monitored and watched by bethel for reading and posting here.
and i bet i am.

They do monitor major Apostate Websides. Just to remind you watchtowerquotes.ca that they close it. The most funny thing was that the webside DID NOT say anything negative towards the WT society, but only quotes from the early days of Russell, unitl now!!! The excuse that WT's lawyer use was that it could be "misleading to the current teachings"of the WT.....!!!! Yeah showing all the stupid ideas, false prophecies, flip flop doctrines they had over the years it could be "misleading"
Indeed WT is monitoring the major websides, even they have Bethelites trained for "guarding" bible studies that came across to apostatic material. Usually the Bethelites take over the BS in this case so the person who conducts the BS will not fall into more "apostate material and lost the faith". I know this from first hand, but I cannot reveal any more informations about this matter.
