well i consider all of his books fictional but that's another story :-).
a while back i read about a novel that i understood was published by wt and there was some sort of connection with da judge.. i remember i found it online and was going to look through it but never got the chance.. now i can't find it and for the life of me i can't remember the name of it or the author.. unfortunately, google isn't helping.. it was about life before the flood.. anyone able to help?.
thanks in advance.
Very strange case.

the new bethel is in bologna city.
rome be for sale.
the new bethel not ready until 2020.
Gorby was guest at Bethel Roma once upon a time. It’s worth a lot. Also monument villa’s are part of it.

i left wt, 18 years ago.
never thought that i would have witness such a massive doctrinal and structure changes as well.
i find it hard to recognize that religion.. what i can tell, like all of ex jw's is that wt going down.. their corporate directors know it.
What I hear is that congregations become grey and most elderly witness are sick.

A clear message, wts is not above the law.
Beside, the breaking news section of jw.org is silent about it.

This is huge news for the Netherlands.
Good step forward.

so our family fade is well under way.
we changed congregations as regular attenders and left in good standing with those giving hugs and kisses simply knowing we "needed a change".
we moved to a neighboring congregation that is out of our original region knowing we would see no one and the two boe's wouldn't really have immediate dealings.
Exact the same we did, we moved to an other city.
They came to see us, but we replied "We have no need to make an apointment". Never heard anything again from them.
Heard recently that an old friend, now CO, comes to our region. I expect he will visit us 🤨

i sneakily read his books at work.
it was written in such a way that no one could accuse him of being another bitter old apostate.. once it registered in my brain, especially after reading the second book, i knew i had to get out!.
I read CoC in 1996 and direct lost my believe in the organization.
G.
i remember when my faith left me.
i used to enjoy meetings and used to participate but then all of a sudden i was finding myself bored shitless at meetings.
i was taken off the theocratic ministry school for not attending when i was due to give a talk and not long after did something naughty and got disfellowshiped.
Remember the 1995 generation change. After that I read the Ray Franz books. It ended my believe. Since 2008 faded with wife.
