Dear Desilusionee,
When I was in your shoes, my husband would keep refering to the societys literature to prove 607 too. Finally, I told him, "No. Prove to me 607 WITHOUT using any of the Societys literature. If 607 is indeed factual it should be proof to back this date up outside the Society." He confidentaly said, "OK, fine." Hours later, he turned off the computer and sat there stunned...he realized then that we had been lied to our whole life!!
If you want to hear how I got my husband out of the organization with me, please read my very first topic started. (For some reason my computer is blocking me from copy and pasting..so I cannot paste the link for you.) But click on my name, go to topics started, and it is the very first one entitled, "Its high Time I Introduce Myself." Perhaps you can get some ideas from there to help your husband.
Also....if you go to page 8 on topics I started, and click on the thread entitled, "Anniversary of our house being egged by JWs, decided to show you the letter we sent to over 200 families..ENJOY!" This has at the end info and charts that I believe will be able to help you reason with your husband, because it proves the Bible to be hand in hand with archeology that supports 586/587. There are no gaps in time or missing Kings as the society tries to portray.
Anyhow..just thought I would mention to you what worked for me.
Sincerely,
Lady Liberty

New CO talk: Be loyal to Org. even if you get weird instructions or can prove them wrong doctrinally!
by sir82 intheme was something about "loyalty to jehovah's visible organization".. i have neither the time nor inclination to summarize the whole thing, but a few points stood out:.
even if it causes you personal hardship.
example: joshua & caleb returned from spy trip to promised land with good report, but were "outvoted" by the other 10 spies.

DC 2010 Releases and info
by JWFreak insorry i have been very busy and forgot.
as promised.
friday afternoon.

Lady Liberty
Thank you JWFREAK...
Boy I wish I could hear how they are going to explain the Genreation change in person!! They will no doubt be so stinking confusing and make absolutely no sence that no one will be able to follow their line of reasoning (which will of course be DELIBERATE!!)...thus figuring most will conclude that they MUST know better, since they, after all, are the "Faithful Slave"!!
What a joke!! I wonder how many they will lose after the district convention because of this botched up belief?? Hopefully PLENTY!!
We look forward to seeing the outline if you can get your hands on it!!
Thanks for sharing!
Sincerely,

Will my grief ever end?...
by Lozhasleft inok so my youngest daughter (17) has been enveloped by her 'spiritual' older siblings and at the same time convinced that her mum is an evil disfellowshipped harlot.... its gutted me for the past 8 months ...i miss her dreadfully and worry so much about her...i thought she knew me better and that we had an unbreakable bond ....the things she's said to me in emails and texts have torn me apart and i cant keep going back for more...much as i love her i cant continue to be a punch bag...it would kill me to go through anymore abuse..... currently she's getting involved via facebook with some of my new hubby's family (not jws) ...i think there's trouble ahead..... loz x.

Encouraged by the Org. itself to expose them............
by iknowall558 inok...when i left the org, i was quiet for a while....as you are, trying to get used to not being a jw robot, and trying to show the rest of the congregation and former friends and family, ..(like it matters),..that you are still nice, polite, spiritual......... not engaging in criminal acts, not smoking or taking drugs and not becoming the local slut falling out of pubs and clubs at the weekend in an alcohol induced stupor.
then i changed my mind!
not that i started engaging in all of the above....but that i stopped being quiet.

Dear Iknowall558,
Thank you for the article!! Their own literature is the most damning of all!! I completely agree with your desire to expose them for what they really are!! We owe it to our God to do just that!

Dear Mentallyfree31,
Thank you so much for taking the time to take pictures of your findings and posting them for all to see! There are MANY lurkers here who will no doubt be shocked to see this for themselves. It is one thing for someone to say 607 has no proof outside the Societys literature, but it is quite another thing to see it for your self!
I will NEVER forget the evening I stayed up all night frantically trying to find proof for 607 outside the Societys literature. I had 2 sets of Encyclopedias at home, and was in shock when I saw the exact same thing as what you have posted here.
I even went to the British Museum online and looked at the cuneiform tablet of this event, and it too said 586-587. It was absolutley SHOCKING!! When I discovered this I wanted answers..I even had an elder tell me "There IS NO PROOF for 607!!" UNBELIEVABLE!!! As you all know, this date is the foundation to almost everything the organization teaches, and is what gives them their authority.
I pray that those of you that are lurking research this yourself. Try and find something, anything OUTSIDE of the Societys literature that proves 607. I tried for MONTHS because I couldn't believe it was true. Finally I realized I had been lied to my whole life. Remember, Jehovah wants us to worship him with "spirit and truth".
Sincerely,
Lady Liberty
