Any sources for the accompanying voice parts (non-lead) for practicing to provide harmony?

From what I read earlier, the Russian court definition of 'extremest' does not necessarily imply violent or subversive behavior in itself. To be extreme is to claim that all others are wrong and that you alone are right. It is clearly evident that the Russian Orthodox Church clergy are fueling this fire against true worship because our literature and teachings show their path ultimately leads to destruction. Of course they don't like that. The Russian Government has a problem with our teaching that Jehovah comes first, then Caesar. It seems their words of religious/conscientious freedom stop when they get afraid the population would not kill on command ... the same kind of issues were raised during the Vietnam War era when 'hippies' decided it was better to love than fight. Point is that unless the legal definition of extremist can be amended by the Russian Government, the Russian Orthodox Church will use this tool to not only strike our organization but all other religious organizations that they feel are a threat. The news revealed concern by other, smaller organizations (who also lost facilities in the past but regained them by expressing endorsement of the Russian Government and Russian Orthodox Church). As to whether the NWT is a bible or not, I came into the truth using the Revised Standard Version and the King James Version because I did not want a translation or literature tainted to suit the teachings of any organization (my view at the time). After six months, I checked the translation of several key scriptures and came to trust in the NWT translation accuracy. Seeing the value of the literature only required a few months. The Russian Orthodox Church may have has a few victories, but it will really hurt when they realize they cannot stop us (using other translations/versions) clearly demonstrating that Jesus' teachings prove all other paths are wrong, that God does have a name, that the trinity doctrine is a lie, and that the Russian Orthodox Church is just another doomed part of Babylon the Great. When I run into the same claims in this country that we wrote our own bible, I show scriptures from the KJV and RSV to demonstrate the worth/accuracy of our NWT.
