Of course telling anybody that they will be destroyed, or should be, is hate speech. Threatening anybody with death, carried out be your friend (angelic or not) can be an assault in some jurisdictions. It is not the end of the world for jws, far worse happened to them in the 30s - 40s in germany, and we are still here. Wait until they would go after patterson wall - kiil and war - wick, then according to the pattern, he howling about wicked kill and wall to wall war ! will start

bible: after the 1000 years, the the Earth will have 4 corners again , to accommodate the nations gathering there for the final battle. even without stretching it, that promise gives 25% more surface for the same diameter. but since there is so much hot air in the bible, while not blow the corners out ( the bible does not say they have to be 90 degrees) to accommodate the 100 billion easily,? 25 billion in each corner? or 16 billions on each side? also:
The bible says "there will be no more sea", so, then eliminate the Oceans, you more than triple the land area. (here goes your dream of the waterfront property, sorry, jws!) ha ha.

thou shalt not save pennies! because long before one tenth to eternity, you would have hoarded all the copper in the Universe.

Suffering And The Meaning Of Life
by Brokeback Watchtower inwhat is the meaning of life?
we all die, so what is the meaning.
religion tries to bridge the gap with absolutist answers to this problem of existence by giving immortality to it's members in good standing(so join us or parish).helps to pay the bills using fear of annihilation to keep members as a source of material $$uport.

One must find the intrinsic value in the present. That's what we're taught in Judaism. DJ:
That deep feeling must stay with jewish people even if they become witnesses. I remember now, ~ 30 years ago, while living in Florida, visiting a congregation in a wealthy neighbourhood, Jewish sounding names, very handsome, dignified people too. and an astounding ambiance I never felt before, of the value of the present. I thought: " this is how it must feel like to be at the end of the millennium, when you have arrived, when the present is perfect.
So why wait? sharing the earth with 100 billion?

1925 versus 1975
by Sour Grapes inin the early 1970's i was an elder who was convinced by the other elders in the congregation that armageddon was coming by the end of 1975. at that time, as an elder, i knew that in the early 1920's the witnesses thought that in 1925 christendom would be destroyed and the faithful men of old, abraham, isaac, noah, etc., would be resurrected to earth.
i knew those were failed prophecies yet it did not bother me.
as i ponder why it didn't shake my faith, i must have given the borg a pass since it was so long ago or maybe because the light is getting brighter.. i am afraid that the same thing is going to happen with the 1975 video at the assemblies.

I think there was a far greater exodus %wise in the 1925 aftermath ( hindsight math calculation) than in 1975, fewer were left inside to actually remember, and those were of the kind not to think, and enjoy the ride for whatever reason (feelings) . !925 predictions were also much more detailed and deluded, and false. 1975 had a calculation to base it on, but 1925?

2017 Convention Video To Be Shown Regarding The 1975 Failure
by pale.emperor inhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=go3arnnsfkk&feature=youtu.be.
no mention whatsoever that it was watchtower themselves that strongly hinted towards this date.
instead they blame those who "put their trust in a date, not jehovah".. let's recap... .

Anonvet: thank you. The 1975 calculation was perhaps a subconscious attempt to get away from the 1914 generation crisis starting to loom, with already 2 or 3 natural generation having arrived since WWI? ....Thought about another angle.:
Jesus roamed the Earth for ~ 47 days as a spirit confined to Earth (on the way up), Satan for already 103 years, ( on the way down) a day for a prophetic year? something does not seem right! ha ha.

What's worse, 2 week old getting nearly 100 rat bites and living, or Jesus' torture and death?
by FatFreek 2005 insome 35 miles from here, in the small town of magnolia, ar, a teen couple is in trouble -- as they should be -- for allowing their 2 week old girl, a 5 pound baby, to suffer nearly 100 bites from rats.
one of the bites was so large and deep it required plastic surgery.
i don't want to even think about the horror this teeny creature felt during those instances -- and the horrible nightmares she may suffer in years to come.. i wonder if this is one of those human experiences that may be worse than what christ suffered on that stake.

torture and death? , how about the just sentenced native german lady that killed her lover who was expecting an orgasm , but was instead feeling being cut with an electric circular (skil) saw? At least "jesus" expected the pain and then the euphoria of an immortal spiritual resurrection, instead of a fatal, cut short erection.

In 1969-1975, the players had already been through 2 significant flip-flops in wt doctrines/ procedure, the "Superior / supreme Authorities" and the rotating or not elder position. So: the non-event in 1975, left kind of a vacuum, but no panic or even discussion, just an accepting of another passing wt phase. Even those hurt financially remained mum. But the utter failure of the Society as a teaching, research authority had become evident. is wt trying to destroy that evidence?
