i have known all of them over the last 15 years, talked at length with them, and knew what their wishes were, the copyright holder and spouse spent even more time with them socially and helping them set up their arrangements for when ray and cynthia passed.
i don't believe that anyone else on this board or others was a confidant.
there is no need to prove it to anyone but the copyright office which is satisfied with this.
As ex-jws it is embarrassing seeing people here argue like this over someone's personal property.
I trust the Dykstras know what Ray and Cynthia wanted way more than anyone else on this board including me.....Blondie

have you heard that old chestnut?
i have.. typically it's the last resort when you have dismantled a jws beliefs and they have no way of defending them.
they know they are beat so they come out with that one.. its effectively an admission that you are right and they have no argument but they are still going to attend meetings because they like the social club.. what a lame way to defend your faith..

"If the WatchTower says this book is "Red"....Then It`s Red!"

how honest are the proponents of evolution?
idk but curious to see what type of response there is on a topic like this or does their study only seek to confirm their preconceptions and ignore uncomfortable facts?
By the way I think the OP is a very valid question and
doesn't deserve Outlaw's mockery.....cofty

a exfriend of mine gave his first public talk and that was the title.
wasn't that the title of an awake in 1969?
if so, talk about rehashing an old title.
Actually . "It Is Later Than You Think" was the theme and Public Talk title of the District Conventions in 1949 !
How many years ago was that?.....Blues Brother

the man asked jesus who is my neighbor jesus stated the one who acts mercifully toward other humans.
not good enough for watchtower neighbor must fit in three catagories only according to yesterdays wt wow changed the words of the son of god.
The wt has now changed Jesus definition of neighboor.
do you ever test the water and see if your relatives or friends still feel the same way?
i don't have mobile phone numbers or email addresses for my family because we left a long time ago.
long before facebook.
Do you ever contact those who shun you?
No fuck 'em.
I don't think you can pick up on a relationship after someone has stabbed you like that, especially after so much time has passed......Simon

so imagine the gb have a sudden attack of honesty and realize "crap, this whole thing is lies - we're not god's spokespeople at all !".
how do you dismantle a religion that has +8 million members in a responsible way?
you can't just publish a watchtower saying "we were wrong" because that would be irresponsible - you need to let people down gently, put people off gradually.
If it was you at the top, how would you dismantle things and how long would it take? A decade? Several decades? Is it even possible?

so thinking back about the times when someone has asked my wife what religion she is.
she sheepishly and seems almost embarrassed to say she is a jehovah witness.
when someone asks me, i just say i am a christian.
my wife didn't say anything. it was strange....yet she acts like she is super JW.
JW`s lose their "Watchtower Super Powers" Outside of the Kingdom Hall..

i was once a person who believed in god destroying 7 billion people so a few people could live in paradise.. when the penny finally dropped and i realised what as a jehovah's witnesses i was really praying for , it made me feel sick.
what is attractive about a person that prays for this world to end .
i was ashamed to have been a witness deeply ashamed .
@Outlaw. Childish antics like yours solidify my faith. I'm being serious. Thank you.....makemeanunbeliever
