  How many have read 'Crisis of Conscience'?

  for me it was the book!

  it opened my eyes.

  i started it thinking it would just enlighten me about how the organisation works.

  Stand for pure worship. If you're thinking about buying a car it's very important to read reviews from various sources. Definitely not just relying on the manufacturer's sales pitch. By the way, if you want to find out how great North Korea is, go to the source and read their propaganda - it's a lovely place. Also the 1930s Germans were so right to believe the Nazis' rosy coloured picture of themselves and their ideals. Yes StandForPureWorship - don't you bother believing anything critical of the WT, stay in your cosy bubble.

  Anyway, back to the topic. I read most of the book on line just over a year ago but I lost interest when I got to a part where Ray was talking about doctrinal stuff. But the part about the way the governing body worked, really was like pulling back the curtain on the wizard of oz. Since then I read A People For His Name by Tony Wills, which I think is a fantastic book (and SFPW, very unbiased and objective).

  I've now bought the paperback version of Crisis and am reading it now.

  Hi

  i've been lurking here for a year or two now (since i stumbled across ttatt and was stumbled by it), i even started an account some while back and asked a couple of questions.. but i never actually stood up and said hi... so hi, my name's jon and i'm a dubaholic.. .

  i was "born in" in the 80s - and grew up on a liquid diet of cheap suits and revelation book pictures (i mean really, group after group just staring at the pictures while not listening, i must have spent more time staring at those pictures than i have any work of art in my life, literally hours at each lurid picture).

  i "left" in my teens, but apparently lacking any kind of actual sense, returned to studying with a childhood friend from the congregation in my twenties (although i was never baptised, my entire small family were dubs, so i saw more witnesses than "worldly people" on a regular basis.. they love bombed my arse for years!)..

  Do you make your own soup?

  greetings, soup lovers:.

  i have a huge kitchen at my disposal (not my own); vegetables, cans of this and that and spices are scattered about, prepared to go into a cauldron of minestrone i started a few days ago.

  i'm preparing ahead so as to freeze the leftovers to heat up later at home over my hotplate.. nothing like a 6-burner gas range to simmer over!.
