I really had no personal tools to refute the high charisma of the Society in those days.
I was naive, impressionable and sick about the state of the world, Vietnam, drugs, and all.

There was a huge assumption that the end was coming because of articles like these. All the witnesses were beaming and glowing with confidence, selling their homes, quitting their jobs, giving up school to pioneer and help as many as they could to come into the org!

Kingdom Halls were hives of activity and enthusiasm! The conventions were thought to be of historical importance! When people met and became friends they would talk about being friends forever.
We made vows to Jehovah in those days and meant them from the bottom of our hearts.

I remember those days. Seeing the cover of that mag brought back so many memories of alot of zealous witnesses who are now dead.
Wow.
Thankyou Elsewhere for presenting it to us. I wasnt crazy. Millions of us became believers back then of a dream.
