The Commentary Press site is today a memorial to Ray and his wife. I just wish it was more than something dedicated to the dead. It should be a site dedicated to the living who remain in the Watchtower!
Is that not what Raymond Franz would have hoped for?
recently there was a thread where someone asked if there was a copy of crisis of conscience they could purchase.
raymond franz it seems had limited resources yet he was able to provide crisis of conscience in printed form to what?
thousands?

Crisis of Conscience is an important work that should be shared in printed form with as many as possible. Why is his book not available in printed form?
I know brothers who would read it if I personally gave them a copy.

Who owns the copyright to Crisis of Conscience and why is its availability in printed form so limited making it too expensive for many who would like a copy?

i'm reading a very interesting book right now " why our children will be atheist ".
i've just started the beginning of the book but it starts off with a history of how religion developed through the ages of mankind.. one of the points it make is that religion was invented for two reasons 1) to alay fears about death and the future 2) to create a bond between other people.. i found this thought to be very interesting and i wonder if the need for those two components were removed from mankind would religion disappear too?.
sorry for the posting error below.. my wife is reading crisis of conscience now.
this is good news because i know i will have someone to talk to when im caught and dfd.
but in her reading she is recognizing most of the names ( we were there at bethel during the 70s as a married couple) and asked what happened to reinhard lengtat?
I have been told that Lengtat has one foot in the Watchtower and one foot out. If this is so, what a help it would be to many if he would explain why he is both in and out. What is the good he finds in the Watchtower, which I agree is there, and what is the bad he finds.
To remain silent is to be non-committal and lukewarm. Or is he waiting for someone to call him and invite him to return and make needed changes? I think not.

it would seam that the changing of the type anti-type teaching kills their claim as the faithful and discreet slave class as it is only a parable according to peter at luke 12:41. obviously i don't think they will ever come out and actually say that the f&ds is just a parable, so when one asks what will the answer be, to spin out of this obvious problem?.
also what do you think is the reason for the change in this teaching?
is it more to do with getting rid of doctrine that can be criticized or could it be that they are trying to make it as though they are really not in control of the congregations so as to say we aren't responsible when the prosecution comes knocking over future pedophile case?
Ray Franz said the old FDS teaching did not hold water because the anointed around the world did not truly teach or control a thing in the Watchtower. The change only caught up with the reality Ray Franz talked about.
Perhaps someone at Bethel read his book.
watchtower, study edition, september 2015, "are you reaching the stature that belongs to christ?":.
paragraph 6: the mature christian shows humility in that he recognizes that jehovahs ways and standards are always better than his own.
[footnote: for example, older, experienced brothers may be asked to step aside from certain responsibilities and to lend support to younger brothers as they take on those responsibilities.].
