    oh yes...most certainly....a brilliantly written and accurately constructed book....a real eye opener....I was shocked at so many things within it..but in particular the Malawi v Mexico debacle.....and the chapters on prophecy and 1914......just wish others within and outside the org would dare to read it.....Raymond Franz was an honourable man who was treated shamefully by his peers.......peers who have the gall to presume they speak for god....

    I read it around the time I attended my last Meeting, I cannot remember if it was before or after I stopped attending.

    What struck me was that, when I was reading it, it was 20 or so years since its first publication. In all that time, not a beep from the WT, and yet, had there been one falsehood, or even inaccuracy in there, they would have been all over it like a rash.

    That assured me it was all true, along with Ray's candid, honest and yet kindly way of writing.

    Once read, there is no going back, you realise that Almighty God would have nothing to do with such an organization as the WT/JW's.

    I read Crisis of concience and Christian freedom when they first came out.

    I had already escaped by then.

    Threads like these will always come up from time to time since Ray's books are timeless for anyone escaping a cult, especially the Cult of WT.

    Thanks TornApart for the OP.
