Adventists and Abortion Information
This is a PDF file public record of my letters sent to the GC and NAD in 2018. On July 9, 2018 I was informed by attorney Karnik Doukmetzian, General Counsel for the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists that my letters were arriving and being "dealt with" and "circulated as necessary" to "appropriate individuals." When asked who the appropriate individuals and departments were he refused to answer. When asked why letters unrelated to abortion were never delivered he refused to answer.

This is an Excel Spreadsheet list of the addresses for several leaders in the GC. In order for me to send out all my letters I use AmazingMail.com and just upload a spreadsheet as a csv file with 35, 70, 100+ addresses. Then I just create a letter and have it sent out to 100+ people in one day. I modify the list for different letters.

In September 1992 James Standish published an article titled "The Other Side of Tithe" in the magazine The Anchor arguing to withdraw or redirect tithe away from the organized Adventist church. Several months later in December 1992 Glyn Parfitt published a lengthy and detailed research paper which carefully refutes each of Standish's arguments. Parfitt's paper was later summarized into a three page article and printed in the March 9, 1996 Record here. I personally contacted Mr. Parfitt and obtained permission to share his research paper online (file size 88mb):
