Simon, you are so right about Mormon history! Last Christmas someone gave me a book entitled, Under The Banner Of Heaven. It was a history of the Mormon church, from its inception. Wow, so much violence! Also, Joseph Smith was such a sexual deviant. He just married any young girl he wanted to have sex with, I think some were only 12. He had, if I remember correctly, 37 wives. In addition, he was a frequent visitor of the local brothel. Which makes me wonder how he managed all of this, especially since Viagra was not available back then.

12American Primeval and the Mormons
by Simon injust finished season 1 on netflix.. holy crap, i had no idea of the history of the mormons!.
i always thought they were like the jws, or the quakers, but they were full on fascists committing massacres.. i'm sure they are hating having more people be aware of their past, but i gotta say, it is more event-filled than the jw history..

I was most concerned about my elderly PIMI mom. She was quite elderly, and if these bozos instructed the r & f to sell all their possessions, homes, etc. and give all the cash to the WT headquarters, she would have done it. Thankfully, she is now gone. I miss her, though. The last JW in my immediate family. There are a few here and there, but I really don’t see them. So, my family is normal again.

Blondie, interesting about what is and isn’t interfaith. Based on what you reported WT said, it should NOT be a problem if a brother who is a plumber fixes a toilet in the Catholic Church. Whereas, previously, they did say that a brother would not be able to do that. 🤷♀️

Yes, agree, Not former, they will ask that funds be directed to the world wide work’ and to not specify that your donated funds be directed to the fire victims in California. Then they can use these funds to pay more lawyers or settlements.

Do children still get destroyed at Armageddon?
by Anony Mous ini know back in the day, that was taught, that if the parents were going to be destroyed, so would the children.
i just can't easily find reference to anything.
this thinking has been used to justify some egregious behavior towards children and their parents such as exclusion of children from jw family - why worry, the end is near, all will work itself out then - the end didn't come though.

So, if everyone makes it through Armageddon, there is no point in preaching, and starting studies!
