recently, someone who knows deborah drexler, the current copyright holder of cofc, asked her if she will consider having it published again.
her response was:.
" i will have to ask jesus"!!!!!.
Steve 2It is also frustrating that posts almost always rely on second- or third hand accounts ("...someone who knows Deborah Drexler...").
Hi Steve. I can tell you it was Jim Penton who spoke with her, he told Lloyd Evans what she said. So these are very credible sources whom I trust 100%. Your frustration is understandable as we've had these second hand accounts about it for so long.There is absolutely nothing on the website she was using and she does not reply to messages.

Make of that what you will.
Personally, I think she feels it's better to have people as believers in the Watchtower, than non-believers out of the Watchtower, but that's just my take. Others think she's just been bought off by Watchtower representatives.
Over on ExJW reddit u/ziddina, a moderator, is doing a review of the whole book, section by section. So this way you get to read the whole book legally, if this is an issue for you.
If it's not, please contact u/wifibandit who definitely will not be offering pdfs in several languages (since as we know, thanks to Kim & Mike Brookes, that is a copyright infringement).
still read this forum from time to time, and a long time member originally since early 2000's.
recently lost my last surviving grandparent, my great and wonderful nan.
what a flood of emotions that released!
Scotty thank you for posting Acker Bilk, it was my nan's favourite!
I'm so sorry for your loss. I always thought jw paradise would be rubbish without oldsters and kids, they are the ones we love the most and bring so much joy to the world. You ( and I) were lucky to have wonderful grandparents...I treasure their memories deeply. my own poor kids don't have that due to death and shunning, and I believe it is a form of deprivation for them:-( :' -(
I echo everyone's words - if anyone still has their grandparents or great aunts /uncles talk to them all you can, enjoy their company because when u look back at your life, your relationship with them will be the thing your treasure most.
And the little sayings you laugh at...then you end up saying them yourself as you get older too!
(((((hugs)))))) Scotty :' -(
has anyone else had a moment, while still within the organization (and before learning ttatt) that caused them to stop and go, "this is kind of messed up.".
for instance, back i believe in the early 2000's, i was attending a dc with my family.
it was announced at the beginning of the convention that there was going to be a special announcement at the end, so for everyone to please try to remain until the very end of the meeting.
There was also a horrible talk about birds pecking the eyes out of people absolutely reveling in the horror doing the rounds on you tube. That finally brought home to me the horror of Armageddon. It was like a fire and brimstone American televangelist preacher. Horrible. I thought, my god, is that my religion?
good morning everyone,.
if anyone remembers, sunrises, and sunsets are my time with god.
i wish i had a scanner (that worked) to show you the most unique sunrise i have seen in my life.
oh wow CoCo that's really beautiful.

There's nothing like that time of day. Sadly being a bit of an insomniac I usually see that time at the end of a long sleepless night these days, but I used to work for an airline and seeing it from 30,000 ft is just sublime.
@Been there what part of the world do you hail from so I can imagine? Just country will do, I'd love to travel but not really well enough so I just use my head!!
malcolm young of ac/dc has died at 64 years, dementia.
very sad.. always a great ac/dc fan, especially their river plate concert.. george.
Highway to hell was always my favourite rebellious teenage song to Blair out!!!
So terribly sad for anyone to die of this dreadful illness.
not sure if this has been mentioned before so admin feel free to take this down, but i just watched this interview.
i always love exjwfith's interviews but this one particularly grabbed me.
pedro (broken kite) not sure if you are on here but wow, what a story you had to tell.
ExJW fifth is a supreme interviewer bar none.
There are many talented exjw's creating fantastic you tube content. Two of my personal favourites are Susan Gaskin and Lloyd Evan's " Watchtower in Focus".
But when it comes to interviews I believe ExJW Fifth really is up there with any television professionals, since he really allows the interviewee to fully express themselves. He is able to fully relate back to his guest yet never makes it about him.
look what an ex-bethelite has to say about the spirit channeling he saw first hand up at wallkill:.

now i believe rayven's story of horror at brooklyn bethel:.
I am fairly certain that given Fred Franz incredible, narcissistic and total belief that he was the one and only conduit between almighty God the creator of the universe and mankind, there is nothing, literally nothing that he got into his potty head that he would not do.
Just listen to the guy's speeches. He makes Hitler sound calm.
makes me crazy:.
there: go over there!.
their: they own it; belonging to etc.. for the love of pete - use them correctly!.
I have to say, though, I always feel like a stinker complaining about grammar on exjw sites when so many of us have been deprived of a decent education.
Some have been home schooled by online scam schools and my heart bleeds for them.
