Max Hatton's 1960s study into the WTS chronology
by Doug Mason inin the early 1960s, a jehovah's witness named max hatton was living and working in albany, a town on the southern coast of western australia.
when he was challenged by sda geoff rogerson, who lived in the nearby township of denmark, about the watchtower society's neo-babylonian chronology, max investigated geoff's claims.. after four years of intensive research, max resigned his position as a "servant in the organisation".. max documented the result of his research, and his 77-page study is remarkable and deserves to be widely known.
it is quite likely that the copies max and i have are two of very few copies that now exist.

Islam - Where Does This End?
by Sam Whiskey indoes this end with them actually attempting to take over the world as they profess to want to do?
granted, they are "extremists", but can they really garner enough extremist converts to make a run at it?

Is marriage over ?- UK looks at extending similar rights to co-habitees
by Qcmbr inmy wife and i (ironically) have just sat discussing some of the implications of extending rights normally associated with marriage to co-habiting couples (rights such as division of assets and right to maintenance payments etc..) following hot on the heels of two big wins for very rich divorcees that change uk law (for very high earners) which makes marriage far less financially desirable for a rich person and looking back to such landmark changes such as the abolition of the married persons tax allowance does there seem any point or hope for marriage?
it also seems a bit unfair to those who decided not to get married (for whatever reason) to suddenly be married in all but name.
thoughts?

by Witness 007 inmany witnesses "lived in sexual sin" during the rutherford era.
this was frowned apoun, but you were not disfellowshiped..except if you critisized rutherford!
then the watchtower under franz of may 15 1944 and finally 1/3 1952 clarified disfellowshiping for sexual immorality.
