" Alarmageddon "
This term came to mind as I thought of just how weird it is that witnesses actually look forward to seeing billions of people killed....
Also, at how strange it is that the org has repeatedly tried to work out the date or time for it to happen. (although they will deny doing this ...but the old publications and talks etc are there on record!)
Yes, dooms day Alarmists..... "Bring on "Alarmageddon"
To be fair though, I'm quite looking forward to the Zombie Apocalypse.
Even when I was "in", the concept of Armageddon always bothered me . I cringed when people made jokes or pointed out a house they wanted after "the battle"
I used to wonder why these apparently friendly well adjusted folk had no feelings whatever for the billions of people who would suffer a horrible death

Jehovah will also use pestilence and “the scourge.” Whether literal or not, the scourge will silence terrifying threats. On that day, “one’s very eyes . . . and tongue will rot away” in that the attackers will be able to strike out only blindly and their defiant speech will be silenced. (Zech. 14:6, 7, 12, 15) No section of the earth will escape destruction. The forces lined up on Satan’s side in the battle will be tremendous. (Rev. 19:19-21) “Those slain by Jehovah will certainly come to be in that day from one end of the earth clear to the other end.”
"Good News " isn't it... all that horror so they can live in paradise !
" Alarmageddon "
I like it. Pretty much sums up the entire history of the wtbts. It's what kept sooooo many of us captives for decades.
just saying!

So are the JW's! After all, isn't that what resurrected people will technically be? Undead?
Stuck,
Alarmageddon!!! Way!!! I wish I had thought of that. As far as the Zombie Apocalypse, I believe it has already started.
What sane person look forward Armageddon and why. Problem have become
so big, with no solution in sight. They no longer see themselves able as human
being to solve this problem. Viewing the world as flawed place headed toward
some sort of cosmic correction.
Before becoming a JW I never thought of Armageddon as a mean to correct the world problems
Poor JW's, this is the only thing they are looking to at the cost of billions of people.
Very selfish on their part.
We can thank the WT for creating this hysteria.
It wasn't my experience that Witnesses were all looking forward to billions of people being killed. That's just plain propaganda. Most are worried sick about those people being killed and are troubled by it and are constantly asking questions about who might be saved and who wouldn't and what about this and what about that.
Generalizing what some individual nuts may say is different than brushing everyone and everything with the same broad brush.
