Half banana, I was trying to remember 'inside the kh''s name too while reading this thread. Thanks for remembering for me! He had said he was on some sort of mission and he wouldn't share what it was. I remember wondering if he was a society spy. -

I think perhaps we should band together and put this book back in print. I have no idea how to actually do such a thing, but I will contribute to the cause if one of you does know and is willing. -

FREEDOM OF SPEECH???? WITNESSES????
Um, no. Much much less than other Christians, actually. Go try to even register on an active witness site. if successful, see how long you last.
They call this site here 'apostate' and call us all sorts of hateful names, wouldn't say hi to us on the street.

20 out of 21 for me. I got the red flag question wrong...but it was a tricky one.
I do think that creative, more artsy people can be brainwashed more easily than mathematical/scientific people.
Simon says, I don't know why you did so poorly. I thought of my mother the whole quiz. She is a true believer who says 'brainwashing is a GOOD thing! Our brains have been washed clean!!'
The quiz was so interesting. Witness publications do brainwash people. And I don't mean that in a good way. They can no longer think for themselves.

There's a lot of evidence Rutherford carried on an affair with his secretary. Actually she herself said this, didn't she? And rutherfords housekeeper would find things of hers in his bed, hair pins etc. -

Rutherford, Knorr or Franz - Who has the most influence on doctrine & process now?
by konceptual99 inso, i was thinking - who of the above still has the most influence on current wts doctrine and dogma?.
rutherford obviously created the smokescreen around 1914/607 but overall his work has been superseded i would suggest.. knorr created the various schools and they or their offspring still live on.
wasn't it during his tenure that all the blood doctrine, types/anti types (now chucked away of course), transplants etc came along?

I think Rutherford still has the strongest influence. Wasn't it he who initiated the huge insecurity in the org, the disfellowshipping practice? Also most of the vitriol seems to have started with him. Russel was just a nut who thought the world was ending. Rutherford had serious sociopathic ISSUES that still resound today. -

Does What We Say Here Or In Person Really Help JWs To Get Out Of The Religion?
by minimus inif we are in the congregation, do you think our comments or questions actually reach elders or others in the congregation?
do our comments on this board affect witnesses to the point of questioning their faith?

One month researching my doubts: my crucial issues with WTBTS - what are yours?
by Tornintwo inso after 20 years a convert, about a month ago i decided to start listening to my doubts and to do independent research about the wtbts teachings (naughty me).
as a result i have consolidated my position on various points and these are my major issues with the wtbts teachings, i am posting these to help myself figure things out (with your assistance) and hopefully to hear from others at their stage of drawing away from the gb - newbies' especially.
in the form of notes so hope you dont mind...child abuse.
