Buyer beware! - thanks for swinging by and letting us know. I'm rolling my eyes about it but I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

Zezima - the reason they are not providing it for free is.....money, money, money, money. When the only source of your merchandise died 25 years ago, and you have a stagnant pool of adherents, and you label and condemn everyone else who might join, there are a shrinking number of ways for them to continue to profit off of it!

At a minimum they just got guaranteed that all localities will create an account. Instant, recurring money. Then many saints will have to create an account so they can print off copies of excerpts for their home meetings so they don't have to make new ones buy the ministry they are reading that week, etc... And many other saints will make an account because it's LSM and that's just what they do - whatever LSM says. One of the last redeeming actions of LSM (providing something for free, even if it is poison) just got monetized.

I tell the truth - I have noticed that when saints post ministry excerpts on Facebook, this is a little tongue in cheek, but it's like the citation is almost as long as the excerpt. Like name, publisher, address, year, title, location, website, etc..... I simply get the impression that they are scared to do otherwise. Pretty sad.

Is there any way for you to post/attach the email from LSM you referenced without it identifying you in any way? No pressure if not.
