Alleged JWs Topple Altars in Mexico City
by Funchback inat first i though, "nah...".then, this part of the article spoke the loudest:.
the spokesman for the jehovah's witnesses in mexico did not immediately respond to requests for comment on the incident, which occurred at least a month ago.. read the article for yourself: http://www.thepublicopinion.com/news/associated_press/national/latin-america/ancient-temple-of-mexican-otomi-indians-damaged/article_fb03cbfb-d103-53b3-a6b6-a74959e1fe78.html.

Judge sanctions WTS - $4k per day penalty for not producing sex abuse documents
by Simon injudge sanctions jehovah's witnesses.
imposes $4000-a-day penalty for not producing documents in sex-abuse case.
by dorian hargrove, june 24, 2016. a san diego superior court judge has ordered the church of jehovah's witnesses, also known as the watchtower bible and tract society of pennsylvania, to pay $4000 a day for every day that it fails to produce documents requested in a civil lawsuit brought by former parishioner, osbaldo padron, who claims a church elder sexually abused him when he was seven years old.. in a june 23 ruling, expected to be made final today, judge richard strauss admonished the church for willfully ignoring a court order to produce all documents associated with a 1997 body of elders letter that church leaders sent to parishes around the world in a quest to learn about sexual abuse of children by church leaders.. over the course of the past year, the watchtower society and its lawyers have fought hard to keep the letter confidential, claiming that turning over the documents would infringe on the privacy of those mentioned in the letter that were not associated with the case.. in march 2015, the church turned over a heavily redacted version of the letter.

Could it be that Leo Greenlees or Ewart Chitty (both ex-GB members) are on that list?
And those current & former members who helped cover it up!

Cart "Witnessing"
by Funchback inbesides being a waste of time for those doing it, and being an easy way for the society to inflate its reports of time spent in the ministry, cart witnessing is also taking up space.
i live in a hot city in brazil.
today, the jws decided to set up their cart in the shady spot of the bus stop, where people going to work have to wait for the bus.. ugh!.

Say something like:
Em todas as fontes e enciclopédias consultadas a queda de Jerusalém ocorreu entre 586 e 587 A.C. e não em 607 A.C.

1930s Vertical Phonograph for Bethelites and Pioneers- of passing interest.
by Balaamsass2 injust thought this might be of passing interest to a few members.
we were unpacking some estate items from a 1930s bethelite and were confounded by his vertical phonograph.
lots of old rutherford books, and some trashed rutherford records, but the phonograph was something to behold.

@BluesBrother I found an answer!
New Phonograph
Weighs Only 9 3/4 Pounds
[...]
The phonograph is being placed
with the company publishers and
auxiliaries with three discs on a
contribution of $10.00. If you al-
ready have records and prefer this
phonograph it can be had for $8.00.
Special rates are made for pioneers.
Order your phonograph now. Keep
them busy in your regular door-to-
door witnessing, back calls and loan-
ing to parties who will use them
extensively, Have in mind that this
new phonograph is 5 1/2 pounds lighter
than our last one. -

Thank you for sharing! I have a morbid love for this history. I want to digitize everything.
There should be some kind of museum that archives the history of this peculiar religious movement. A neutral source. WT can't be trusted to tell the facts of their own history!
