why does it matter whether or not the end of the world ( (armageddon) is near?
if it was next week, next year, next decade, next century?
what is to be gained by knowing how close or far it is?
Cognitive dissonance is,, weird.
moving on is the hardest thing anyone has to cope with.. i have officially left the org.
and now it feels my family have been waiting to do this for a long time, officially shunning me, even though they were practically doing this whilst i was still in.. it feels like i've accomplished a victory and at the same time i feel guilty i was tangled up in communication with someone who "hid who they were" claiming to leak information from bethel.
i got the call from the man who i thought i worked with.
Ahgg,, the cognitive dissonance must be stifling at the top.

Who knows?
All the recent changes. Perhaps the Borganization has been laughing at the rank and file all along.

And combined with the nauseatingly jw broadcasting a couple of years after the rebranding.
i believe an an elder told someone who's daughter (14 yo) became sexually active with a 26 year old in the neighborhood, that maybe they should get married.
so, they did... with parental consent.
he turned out to be a ex-convict who shot his first wife in the face with a shotgun.
The "sunk cost" fallacy.
Its the sunk cost fallacy happening here. Without long time old schooler JWs even realizing it.
""Its been this way for almost our whole lives....."""'
They dont even realize it!!
Stupid or 'sunk cost fallacy'.

Many who are able to use critical thinking skills, use their brains & escape the WTs clutches.
Please read Ray Franz's. " Crisis of Conscience" & "In Search of Christian Freedom".
And watch exJW youtube videos. Game over.

the edit:.
henschel did not step down "from his leadership position in 2000".
he was a governing body member up until his death in 2003. a slight error but one that implies much more given the subject matter.. henschel resigned his position as the president of watch tower pennsylvania not as a leader of the jehovah's witnesses - his so-called "leadership position".. having accurate grass roots entry level information on members of the governing body is important in litigation for law firms, and for government departments undertaking a desktop study of such a person.. any wikipedians out there capable of correcting this statement.. .
Poor grammar.
Improper punctuation.
Both indicative of a misinformed source. The source of the information is questionable
Take it with a grain of salt.
That should go without saying, obviously.

Halcon
Is this my actual experience?
All I can say or want to say is,,, that its pretty 'close'. Its as 'close' as you can possibly get.
Thank you.
