  THE BIG A: RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER.

  where did all the witnesses over the decades get the idea that armageddon was right around the corner?

  the society certainly never put anything like that down in print:

  What Are "Unfair" Things JWs Made You Do?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was thinking how unnatural it is for most people to knock on stranger's doors and tell them that if they don't respond to what they were trying to get across, that they were going to be killed by god.

  .....then there's the obligation to join the theocratic ministry school and go on a platform and give talks---even if you had a phobia!

  .....or you're made to feel that you must answer at the meetings even if you're extremely shy.....are there other things that you can think of that made you totally uncomfortable?

  What is your town or area's claim to fame?

  by free2beme in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  every where you live, the local area has something about it that is either famous for something good or something bad.

  as an example, you go to one town and it may have the historial site of a famous war battle.

  you go to another an it might be the place something was invented, or the birthplace of someone famous.
