    Ah the memories come flooding back.. bizzare memories of being raised a JW in the '60's & '70's.. a photo hung icon like inside the entrance to the Kingdom Hall. A panorama of Yankee Stadium & The Polo Grounds packed to the gunwals with happy smiling people getting off on the wet dream that all would be well, the world of men was about to meet a violent bloody end.. Jesus was back and with JudgeRutherford riding shotgun he wasn't about to turn wimpy.. Armagedon was months not years away.. the great tribulation could start any day .. our last 'goodnews tract' will not be a warning but a "Ha Ha too late sucker!" Sell your house & pioneer, get a new car financed long term, leave school early, serve jehovah in your youth...

    1975? ... good one Bro Franz, Knorr & co .. thanks for fucking up my life ..may you rot in hell

    Hey Think!

    Don't buy a House ! Don't go to College ! Don't go to work !

    I was told .....very soberly that whatever me and my future hubby do - we should NOT get a mortgage... as we were soooo near the end!

    Now THAT would of been such a BIG mistake now wouldn't it!

    Interesting how they pay out the in-effectiveness of witnessing, with 200,000,000 hours only resulting in 80000 baptisms. That rate is twice of effective as these days.
    It also makes note of JWs not being interested in social betterment programs. Not much has changed.

    That date was based on biblical chronology going back to Moses that may well be completely wrong according to the Septuagint version of the Bible the 6000 years were up around 500 AD.
