friends

i'm 15, and i'm an unbaptized publisher... so i've been what you call "lurking" here for the past few weeks and i have some questions.

i hear you guys constantly mentioning ttatt so where can i go to learn more about this (links please)?

also i've already told my mom that i don't believe in the governing body and she is making me do even more!

Watchtower-Free

A warm welcome to you

Read the book " Crisis of Conscience" by JW Governing body member Ray Franz

If your library does not have it they can order from another library .

Or heres a link to the PDF online version http://khazarzar.skeptik.net/books/franz01.pdf

This website is from Barbara Anderson she was at Bethel for many yrs and was on the Watchtower writing Dept .

http://www.watchtowerdocuments.com

Also Google "Jehovah's Witnesses child sex abuse " for some startling info .This alone can serve as proof

Gods not guiding this bunch at all .

Take things slow . Especially don't shoot your mouth off people will even shun you for being publically critical

of the JW org .

Do you have zeal for TTATT?

by ILoveTTATT in

jw
friends

who of you feels like they have zeal for ttatt and wish to spread it far and wide?

who feels that it is like a "fire burning in your bones" that you can't keep shut?

(don't worry, i love the power of the internet for anonymity)... ;).
