  Have you let go of waiting for Armageddon?

  by Fisherman in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  although, after experiencing many disappointments and failed dates, i cannot let go and i cannot dismiss the expectation that god will intervene somehow.

  i still hold on, hoping that maybe i will not experience sheol and neither will some of my loved ones.

  how about you?

  2. experiences

  i just could not believe it when i stumbled across this forum recently.

  i was actually doing research for my dad who wanted to see the world's viewpoint of the failed 1975 prophecy.

  he came into the truth less than three years ago and though my mom has been a witness since she was a teenager she never spoke of that particular time period to him.

  i just watched this amazing and beautifully filmed documentary about a crazy, crazy man who lived with alaskan brown bears and ultimately was killed by them.

  this film is really interesting.

  the guy it's about is nuttier than squirrel poop.

  Watchtower Aug. 15, 1968 says to ignore Jesus about tthe time of the end..

  by AloneinOh in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  talking about 1975 and the push by the society got me to looking at some older quotes.

  this one here really bugged me and still pisses me off when i read it.

  in this instance they are telling you to forget about jesus and listen to the society.

  my personal favorite, popular in my area in 1982, was the story that little plastic "smurf" dolls were biting the ankles of hapless witness moms who had bought the demonic toys for their little children.

  does everyone have a favorite laugh-out-loud jw urban legend?

  please share!.

  i watched the movie "mickey blue eyes" last night on tv, staring hugh grant.

  at one point there is a knock at the door and mickey, looking through the peep hole, anounces "its the jehovah bloody witnesses".

  there was more insitent knocking and the female occupant replies "they must be really devoted!".
