Shit happens. Like... her husband passing away? Ray using an obsolete font? Legal issues regarding getting the copyright transferred? But nevermind all that, let’s tell her she’s taking too long in publishing what is now her own property. In the meantime, why not visit JWFacts, which covers what Ray wrote about and even more?

"exjws" and money making Ponzi schemes.
by Thisismein1972 inok i want to pose a question to those who care to discuss this.. imagine a scenario.
you hear of a exjw writing a book, however, before writing this book this exjw is requesting money to publish said book.
you go along with it and help to get this book out to the public as you think that it will be beneficial.

He said it sold less than 2000 on his FB page. He was asking for CVs of potential translators and some asked how much he was paying. He said since it sold less than 2000 copies in English it wasn’t economically feasible to pay translators.

Dodgy backstory, atrocious use of footnotes, unnecessarily graphic and dull. That was before you get to the part where he won’t stop talking about being found in a “compromising” position with a Christmas tree after he fell drunk.

The copyright holder is advanced in age and just buried her husband. Nevertheless, she is proceeding towards publishing it. Evidently Ray had a 5th edition never published that she is incorporating into it. Let’s try to keep from insulting her just because she didn’t meet the frantic deadlines of others.

GB Member Guy Pierce Memorial Card
by pale.emperor inhttp://library.jw-wayback.org/jw-wb/photos-pictures/people/guy%20pierce%20(1934-2014).pdf.
interesting to read his backstory.
a little sad that they refer to his first marriage as "guy married a woman with 2 children".

Very odd for a memorial card to mention a first wife and divorce, especially for a leader of a religion that frowns so much on it. He would have been better served by saying how many children and step-children he had. Then mention of the first wife was unnecessary.

And so the cycle keeps continuing. Now it's easier to see why those who came out of Egypt were so eager to create a golden calf. My Book of Bible Stories was unclear about this other than defiance of Jehovah. When an individual elevates themself to the top of the cause, they eventually become the cause. At that point you have to ask yourself what is this even about anymore?
The point has been made and it's a valid one: People who wish to donate will. If you don't want to donate then you don't have to. The process evens itself out. If there is a will for a book then there will be a book. (For what it is worth I think there will be a book because a certain someone known for his obstinacy wills it)
A second point can be made by using an analogy of someone dealing drugs outside a rehab clinic. Watchtower is a powerful drug itself, and for those who need a visible and ready replacement there is always Methodone. The addiction is still there, only that it is redirected to more of a chemical one and the dangers of the first one are mitigated. However the addictions and underlying problems still exist. Do you really want to be free of this Watchtower shit or do you just want a replacement that makes you feel good but without the high?
For those who want more stories from the brilliant mind who told everyone of "jerking off in showers", "blue balls" and tales of sexting girls and getting caught by the wife then you are in luck. I would hope he becomes a bit more transparent as he enters middle-age and brings along a tin cup for added effect.

Marc & Cora on YouTube causing unnecessary divisions
by jambon1 inwhat is it with this pair?
why do they have to constantly have a bitch about guys like john cedars?
a very recent video of them shows them calling him a 'village idiot' and making other disparaging claims.

Anybody here comment on NYTimes article about the JWs?

when it was first published on thursday it took a while for some comments to show up and when they did there just eleven, which stayed that way for a while.
i noticed today it's up to 43, so i responded to a few folks and left my own.

ShirleyW, keep an eye out for a well-educated "Ivy Leaguer" who's fond of quoting Bob Dylan and Beatles lyrics. -

Did you KNOW Ray and Cynthia or the legal copyright holder? Only a few maybe had limited contact.
by blondie ini have known all of them over the last 15 years, talked at length with them, and knew what their wishes were, the copyright holder and spouse spent even more time with them socially and helping them set up their arrangements for when ray and cynthia passed.
i don't believe that anyone else on this board or others was a confidant.
there is no need to prove it to anyone but the copyright office which is satisfied with this.

Diogenesister - It's not a sincere (or real one, depending on your own viewpoint) if within the apology, you use it as a springboard to attack the people who brought this to Deborah Dykstra's attention. On his videos and in his article he wasted no time in attacking two couples and then made it into this bizarre grouping of evangelicals vs atheists. He even called it a 'manufactured controversy'. How can that constitute an apology when it is clear that he does not think he did anything wrong and it was all contrived by perceived enemies of his to discredit him? For that reason many people look upon that as a forced apology because of how he got caught. In other words, he was sorry he got caught and the copyright owner took offense. If my daughter apologised to me in that context I would send her right back to her room. He helps people get out, sure, so do many others. Lloyd Evans is notorious for issuing threats, one such one was made to this very site owner for refusing to censor the site to his liking. As he has just done so with Debbie Dykstra, he also used the threat of a 'tell-all expose' on JWSurvey to 'ruin reputations'. If you are OK with someone who purports to help people out of the cult using the same site as a means to threaten people he doesn't like, then I'll chalk it up to simply your opinion.
