Remind me- how do they explain.....elder book
by carla incan someone please remind me how they explain the need for a secret elders book to the r & f?
my jw has given numerous convoluted reasons over the years and i have forgotten the official reasoning.
on one hand they claim no clergy class, we are all the same, blah, blah, yet they have only one book the r & f (particularly women) cannot see.

Randy Watters -- WT admits 144,000 may not be the limit
by FatFreek 2005 ini, along with many others, received our latest freeminds email.
i was shocked at the following underlined statement.. the second thing they are emphasizing is that those who claim to be of the "anointed" (now that they have admitted the number may not be limited to 144,000) not only have no say into what goes into the watchtower magazine, and have no special knowledge or place in jehovah's organization, so don't look to them for answers.
the governing body is the faithful and discreet slave as far as the jws are to be concerned.

Mao Zedong: Greatest Mass Murderer in World History
by leavingwt inwhen the jw armageddon happens, i guess he'll be #2. .
mao's great leap forward 'killed 45 million in four years'mao zedong, founder of the people's republic of china, qualifies as the greatest mass murderer in world history, an expert who had unprecedented access to official communist party archives said yesterday.
speaking at the independent woodstock literary festival, frank dikotter, a hong kong-based historian, said he found that during the time that mao was enforcing the great leap forward in 1958, in an effort to catch up with the economy of the western world, he was responsible for overseeing "one of the worst catastrophes the world has ever known".

MORE on how JWs inadvertently helped support same sex marriage
by AndersonsInfo inhttp://oyetimes.com/views/columns/5119-jehovahs-witnesses-support-same-sex-marriage-inadvertently .
jehovahs witnesses support same sex marriage inadvertently sunday, 08 august 2010 10:16 written by stephan pate 5 commentsdespite jw fundamentalist ban of gay marriage, old supreme court ruling in their favour used to defeat prop 8 in california.
the california decision by united states district chief judge vaughn r walker reversed prop 8s ban of same-sex or gay marriage in the state.. part of the legal argument for gay marriage comes from a 65 year old supreme court ruling that granted freedom of religious expression to jehovahs witnesses.. walker said that the majority opinion does not eliminate fundamental rights for a minority.. ironically jehovahs witnesses ban same-sex marriage.
