I would also agree with Sparrowdown that they are creating a list for the purpose of identifying dissenters.

Watchtower can cite their sources after all
by wannaexit inas far as i can remember watchtower has been notorious for not citing their sources in their literature.
the most they will do is to cite their in house, long living expert by the name of scholar.
after 40 + years all i've ever read is the mantra "one scholar says" ad nauseum.

I have never heard the phrase "peer reviewed" at the kingdom hall.
Obliette good point that "they can't stand the thought of anybody reviewing and critizing anything they say or do".
Hypocrisy at its best.

But low and behold on their website page directed at "clinicians", they feature a number of medical articles from Pubmed (NCBI) all in proper citation AMA format.
So they know what to do when it comes to presenting and citing sources properly when the audience is made up of worldly professional folk. But they wont do the same for their own people. They are duplicitious and deceitful and just don't want the sheep to know where they are getting the information.
I recently read a quote online by a Maximilien Rosespierre that said: The secret of freedom lies in educating people, whereas the secret of tyranny is in keeping them ignorant.

Ray Franz was an Idiot
by vinman inray franz who gave us insight into the gb due to a crisis of conscience was an absolute moron, with absolutely no critical thinking skills whatsoever like all of us have.
i mean, to have a conscience based on some magic man in the sky.. how stupid can you be?
in search of christian freedom?

Royal Commission taking our emails to heart
by wannaexit induring the proceedings of australian royal commission, as many of you, i also took time to share with the office of mr stewart, my thoughts and perspective on what what being said and not said by the witness elders on the stand.
within a day a received a reply from office of angus stewart thanking and appreciating the insight from those on the "inside".
yesterday i received a further email that my correspondence was passed on to case study 29 (jehovah's witnesses) team for their consideration.. it sounds like they are taking all our collective experience and knowledge into account as the commission continues its work..

What were you favorite book in the organization? I know what you're thinking...LOL!
by BashfulAshG inwhat were *your favorite *books in the organization?.
out of all of those books, i liked "mankind's search for god.
" however, it appears to me that this book is incredibly obscure and no one recalls studying it during the old book study format.

I liked many. I was a real cooked jdub:
Faith on the March by Macmillan
Paradise lost to paradise restored
Jehovah's thousand year reign
Babylon the Great has fallen.
Young people ask
Aid to bible understanding
All scripture inspired of god
I can't believe I liked all those books

Guardians of Doctrine.
by Pubsinger ini'm still working my way through the videos..... this has probably been covered before but had anyone else ever heard them use this phrase before?
not me... but it's a clever and as per usual misleading choice of words.. if they are indeed guardians of doctrine, they are very poor ones.
if so jws would believe the same thing now that they did in 1879 and we all know that's not true.

I wonder when they will start calling themselves "guardian angels". It's coming folks.
