Everyone in a Cult, Doesn't Know They Are in a Cult

jwfacts.com Have you looked at it?
by blondie ini use this extensively rather than re-inventing the wheel.. paul grundy, the admin, keeps it up-to-date and welcomes any corrections or new information, especially in a well-written article, supported by wt publication quotes.. the 2 places i check first is www.jwfacts.com and then searching on jwn with key word(s) to see if the topic has been already extensively researched or commented on.. don't be frightened away by the material being more than 3 paragraphs.
the quotes from wt publications is are extensive and from publications that are older and less available.
i find it good to read many posts on a single topic and expand my knowledge and sources.. blondie.

I guess "New Boy" is now "The Bethelite"
by The Bethelite ini dropped my old computer 2 weeks ago and had to get a new one.
i tried to log on under "new boy" for over a week and since there was no way to retrieve my old pass word i gave up and started a new profile as the bethelite.
i just want to thank everyone for the help in getting my new book out, in fact i put this website in the dedication in the book.

my sister think that i should not da myself because i have not done any immoral act in her thinking.
