    On page 322 of Penton's Apocolypse Delayed (second edition), he states that Leo Greenlees and Ewart Chitty were removed from the GB, but never disfellowshipped. The issue was homosexuality, according to Penton.

    Does anyone have more specific info on this matter? I only came on board this forum a month ago and I have not seen this mentioned. How did the society cover this one? I don't remember anything about it as a witness - of course I was living in the 'witness fog' most of those years, thinking the GB could do no wrong, so probably didn't even notice when these two resigned. I certainly had no suspicion of what Penton mentions, never heard any gossip about this at all.

    Anyone?

    I don't, but I'll check with Linda Tripp

    AlanF knows all about this. He spoke about it at a conference I attended a few years ago.

    Thanx for the links Englishman and Mulan - seems to be far to much 'smoke' without any real 'fire' - huh?
