    i just read on another thread about quotes that the society changes the publications sometimes,

    is this true that they print something then in the bound volume or cd rom they change it or take it out??

    does anyone have any proof of this? any dates of the articles, (im trying to really stop myself going back, i want to expose the hyprocrisy at least just to myself)

    can anyone help??

    Yep it's true. I'm sure there are some here on board who have proof for you.

    Does a bear crap in the woods? Visit the Quotes web site. There were a couple good examples of wording changes there.

    legolas thanks alot ill read that properly soon, it really helps me to see this kind of stuff as ive been brought up in it all my life and iits like 'wow can it really not be true?' (i know its not now just wish my family could see it too)

    thing is tho if they change it and i just have the cd rom youd have to get the orginals too, wouldnt you?

    I didn't believe it until I saw it myself. Someone gave me photo copies of the pages. and I was just stunned.

    Then I remembered in some of the bookstudies we had to restudy a book. We were expected to buy the new copy but my mother was on welfare and had 4 kids in the house so we used the old copies we had.

    Well when the reader was going through the paragraph sometimes we would see that our copy was different. We just shrugged it off and gave it no further thought. But the reason that they wanted us to get the new one was so they could change certain teachings and no one would realize it.

    I also recall having very clear memories of having read something in a magazine. I tend to be quite visual so I could even recall where I saw it on the page.. But I would so often not be able to find it in the bound volume. Again I just attributed that to my having remembered it wrong. And I know I wasn't the only one who experienced that. My husband who was an elder often had the same problem when he was doing hei research for talks

    If you look at Freeminds I think he might have some proof over there
