i'm an active elder, cobe, just got home from the meeting where i handled the treasures part and concluded by announcing a friend of mine has been d/f,.....blah blah blah...and over the last year have woken up.
i simply cannot spill my guts to my wife and children as it would be family suicide.
i have zero desire to bash, spread my feelings, or become an "apostate".
Your best chance to extract your family is while they see you as strong in the faith and you haven't donned an Apostate hat, so ask questions, but don't provide answers and personal opinions, letting them do the research to find the answers.
Take your time and be prepared to be the last one out.
Softly, softly, catchee monkey.
its a serious question but we all know that thousands even millions have been misled, brainwashed or deluded into thinking the end of the world is coming by false teachers and prophets.
many people gave up family, careers, time, enjoyment of life etc etc only to be disappointed time and time again.they are responsible for pain, suffering, and manipulation.
this goes to many denominations.
Did anybody sue Harold Camping? I doubt it was possible.
i think these exist ?
has someone created pdf scans of original mailed or literature counter wts?

You might be chasing fairies. The WTLib has always been the last printed version. If that has changed, it will be very recent.
2 for me 1 from my old congro in the 80's and another that was in the same circle of friends.. karter..
No. A few with common acquaintances. I've been out of the loop for a long time.
i would really like to read the thoughts of an evolutionist as they lie on their deathbed.
their "honest to nogod" thoughts.
their terrors.
Imagine being on your death bed after having been told for the past seventy years that you are one of the 'great crowd' with all the expectations that went along with that, but by now, every promise that you were made and have passed on to your children, relatives, friends and converts, (and you have abused some of them for not listening), has gone unfulfilled by Jehovah, the God that is supposed to have kept his word and made it all happen.
If there is a Hell, JWs should be made to greet their converts at the gates.

It was a contributor noticing that Dubbies and Mormons don't knock on their door any more, plus that the Dubs don't bother to set up the stalls they did when they first gave up door knocking.

I'm not a subscriber, or in Oz, but I managed to read it. I should have copied it when I had the chance:(
