Steven Lett ... had proof of the kingdoms existance more powerful then the proof for gravity
And what was that "proof"? Just his assertion, nothing else.
This religion has somehow convinced its followers that the word "evidently" is a satisfactory substitute for actual evidence.
It's a pretty interesting psychological phenomenom.
Still, let's not forget: It's still a cult!

Funny thing, here in Atlanta Anthony Morris mentioned how they threw a letter away about stockpiling food. They all are using a manuscript talk it appears.

All my old friends were there. They shun me now. I never even got dfd, just faded. I'm sad for them.

The final talk by Lett was astoundingly manipulative!
He spoke of the "Reality of the kingdom " fairy tales....
The missionaries were all invited to stand in the front of the stage, and everyone waved and clapped for them...(talk about creature worship!) They were all filmed and projected onto the big screens!
After the final "stirring" prayer, Lett walked through the missionary crowd shaking handswere he was mobbed like a rock star...or the pope!
All I could think of was Jesus words: "they are having their reward in full"

And yes....there was Mexican waves in the crowds after the final prayer!
Talk about a new religion!
People would have been dfd for that years ago!

I'm sure the Mexican wave has less than sacred origins. Is this a thin edge of the wedge?

Well Steve, combined with all the disturbing banners being held up everywhere, and the jw.org merchandise being worn....nothing surprises me any more!
