What if Judge Rutherford never became president of the WT?
by Roddy ini was talking with a friend and an interesting point came up: what if judge rutherford never became president of the wt?.
much of the heavy-handed, centralized, and authoritarian things we don't like about the wts is the rutherford presidency legacy.
if the wts stayed on the charles russell track, would we still be jws (or "bible students"?

Who REALLY runs the WTS?
by Roddy ini'm afraid i haven't been following the wts as closely as many of you are.
i'm just courious of who really runs the wts these days.. i'm almost certain it can't be the gb.
unless they figured a loophole that will get new and younger members into this self-appointed priestlike elite and keep their assumed reign of power with the president having total control.

Celebreties and Jehovah's Witnesses
by Roddy ini heard from jw rumors many years ago that entertainers such as john denver and gloria estefan didn't like jws very much.
i simply accepted the info at the time and moved on.
i'm just wondering if any of this is true or is just unsubstantiated babble.. i'm also curious if any of you know of how other celebreties weighed-in on the subject of jws either pro or con.
