@Dark Read her 1 John 1:5. Then read excepts from "Time is at Hand" and/or "The Finished Mystery" as I mentioned. Then ask if there is no darkness in God and the light JW's speak of is progressive, why was such darkness taught?

New light needs to be light in the first place. If a teaching is completely abandoned then it was never light in the first place, hence it is darkness.

Re-read 1 John.

Based on the info or excepts read for either of the books above is God trying to trick us or are those things simply not from God in the first place.

Lastly read Deuteronomy 18:22.

Ask if the things in those books, the most key publication set of the organization's history, all came true.

If the a person is honest they must answer no. As such this cannot be God's organization for if you say yes then he is trying to trick us by leading us into darkness and confusion, then back to light then back to darkness with the constant flip flopping on doctrine and rules.

@Diogenensister that's pretty much how I deal. Try to keep things on own terms. It stinks no matter what but I'm determined that if I have to keep peace, play along for MY FAMILY"s benefit I'm going to have some fun along the way.

In no way do I feel like I'm necessarily giving in I'm doing it for others, not just myself. Sometimes when you love someone (My Parent) you do things to not hurt them, fair or not to you. They are older haven't got forever and for now giving them this peace is the least I can do.

I will say this I'm totally on board with @DarkKnight on the condoning part. That part of it does bother me greatly and there are times where I have to steer clear of certain things or I'm likely to blow the whole thing up ha ha.

Funny witnesses talk about having mildness and self-control. NO ONE I MEAN NO ONE has self control like a successful fade ha ha!!!!!

Korean News : CoC in Korean

hi bros.. after my father's publishing his book, "15 questions after 40 years of jw" , many ex-jw bros in korea became motivated to rush to the coc korean project.

however any secular project needs a fund eventhough it's a not-for-profit.

fortunately, a bunch of bros decided to donate generously $300~$7,000 to this unprofitable business.

Hadriel

@jookbeard you're not conceding though that this is an undertaking of larger proportions than say publishing on Amazon. That is my point. No expert can do it in an evening either.

There's far more involved than I think you're willing to admit.

I get that everyone is bent that it hasn't happened yet, however that has no bearing on the actual requirements of the task at hand. They are what they are and they take time.

@jookbeard you are being ignorant.

Jook edit the new revision from Ray, create a cover, translated it into several languages and post your results here tomorrow morning.

you have your assignment go...you have 24 hours.

@Anti I knew about it many weeks perhaps months ago. I do like the cover for sure :)

@jookbeard many offered to help but didn't even realize there was a revised version from Ray. None of you knew that. So all the PDF's etc weren't even the latest thing.

I couldn't disclose that as I was asked not to, as it needed to be verified and organized which takes time.

So a temporary print run of an out of date copy isn't the answer no matter how many offered.

My apology again on behalf of Deb that these last months have gone by and it isn't quite wrapped yet. Organizing a world wide printing endeavor is not easy. I wish more could see that.

@jookbeard please write a book so I can exploit the heck out of it where legally possible or where copyrights are not upheld. Maybe then you'll understand.

I don't get why this is so hard. The CPH could never publish it and I'd still stand behind that decision. Someone else's property is someone else's property. We simply don't have a right to it regardless of our personal feelings on the matter one way or the other. It's an absolute. Cut and dry.

..full disclosure.the condoning part is for sure a real thing and something that gets my goose too. I can't deny that

for this very reason I've said to one of my fam who has an idea of what's going on that you can't just take the good and ignore the rest because some day it will effect you and two you're inadvertently condoning these harmful invasions on other's lives whether you acknowledge it or not.

@jookbeard is right waiting several months to get a world wide publishing effort organized is too much to ask. Brilliant logic.

It's like saying well If I wait for you to sell your house it will be an eternity.I'll just sell it for you and reap the rewards. Such backward cavalier logic with someone else's property.

...then that's exactly how you should handle it Dark.

for us and without outing myself our families are so deeply intertwined at the highest of levels of this thing it would create a title wave miles long. Just not an option for me so I do my best to find a way to deal with it all.

If not for that I'd be completely gone myself but alas I don't have that option so I make do.
