"The Four Presidents of the Watchtower Society"

i just finished reading it and must say a one word description would be "disturbing".

Even where the witnesses were banned, such as Kenya in the 80's, their main covert goals were secret publishing and distribution. Folks were getting jailed, beaten and worse, a terrible crime against human rights: but the big deal was making sure the magazines looked nice.
Case in point, the Watchtower used (what was then very bleeding-edge) desktop publishing kits that could fit in an old ratty bookcase.. small laser-printer, laptop, batteries.(some one at Walkill showed me that when I was on a "Special tour". They could have used what books they already had, memorized scriptures, borrowed an old mimeograph for special bulletins, or just laid low, but instead they felt it best to operate covert presses.
Publishing is the cake, everything else is only ingrediants.

Freeminds was a huge help when I was getting out of the J-dubs. I can't adequately say how big a help it was.

President Curley started the whole thing as first president of the International Bible Stooges. Yes he was wierd, and yes his leadership abilities tended to compare evenly fingernail clippings, but he was the first, the progenitor. Even if everything President Curly ever thought up was symbollically smacked up side the greater-head of the memory of him, the religion began with Curly. He had style, grace, and was goofy enough to not take too seriusly. nyocknyoknyoknyock. He is best remember for his key debates with leading theologians of the day. When asked by Swami Vivekananda at the 1893 Paralement of World Religions in Chicago Illinois if he felt that theistic dualism's primary method of self awareness was destruction of the ego through methods of ecstatic love, or rather was it a "wisdom" tradition tempered by a code of ethical solutions, the resolution of which would lead the soul to higher understanding with the scriptures written within one's heard, President Curly replied "Soitenly."
President Moe took over in the wake of Curly's death. His organization was at a crossroads. Moe took the organization in a very different direction. "Advertise Advertise Advertise" became the mantra of the newly renamed Jehovah's Stooges, along with "Why I Oughta Murder the Bum." and other uplifting speech. Always keeping the flock on his toes, he forced them to test their own convictions by giving the date of the end of the world incorrectly several times. He asked to be released from his earthly duties to join the bride of christ, wherein his prayers were heard and he was liberated from his sufferings on earth, by means of cirrosis of the Liver in 1942, while peacefully smoking a Cuban to get his mind off the good work that Stooge nurses had to do to aid him in the priapsm he was often afflicted with, in his palatial estate in Sandy Eggo.
The administration of President Shemp was not revolutionary but rather evolutionary, as the Jehovahs Stooges began to spread worldwide. Shemp, always wanting to be like his predecessor, missed the mark. He simply was just a goofier version of Moe with a really bad haircut. The Stooges continued to grow in number. A lot of fundamental changes to the organization were done throughout this time, with the Governing Buddies taking the lead, as Shemp was more of an enforcer. The bulk of the theoretical work of Stoogism was handled by the same man who had earlier helped Moe, the brilliant Larry.
Larry became the fourth president of the Jehovah's Stooges as Shemp was taken out to the burial plot for annointed stooges sometimes jokingly referred to in Bethel as "the launch pad"., Larry was finally in his own environment, and he set out to make all of his own views of Stoogism stick, and went even further by rewriting the very history he'd been so deeply involved in. By the time of his death, Stoogism had millions of followers, and any attempt at organized reform by dissident stooges had been totally removed by tactical purges.

If there was fiberglass in cigs (fibers of glass), it would get into your mouth as extremely tiny shards of glass, no matter how well the filter was designed, and from their they would scratch the back of the throat terribly. After that they would start carving up your alveoli like a million tiny ginsu knives. The folks that build fiberglass boats have to wear good filtration masks because of this.
