Ha! Yeah, like another one who regularly complains of “no spirituality here” and yet shows up as reliably as the rising sun.
Shakespeare it ain’t but if it is a complete waste of time what does that say about the person who constantly attends to it?

I immediately see two things wrong with your above analysis.
Number one: if all these people in the “great awakening“ were part of a great awakening and they were all wrong it seems to me like a  “great going to sleep“.
Number two: Clark Kent was not pretending to be Superman……… Superman was pretending to be Clark Kent.
there is a difference.

Are you talking about the Anti-War ‘60’s/‘70’s Hippies?
 

Huh?

If your failed predictions need more “wiggle room”, the hole you have dug can be backfilled without “Weasel Room”.

You mean, like going back and revising history from “Millions now living will never die.”, to “Millions now living MAY never die.”?
Hmmmmmmm?

Of course, Elon Musk has just launched 48 new Starlink satellites, so it may be a case of “my machines can beat your machines”.
It may be as simple as yodeling at a Martian invader.
 

….. with all the silly oneupsmanship that goes on here, I was inspired by an account in the news today that Elon Musk has challenged Vladimir Putin to single combat, the winner to take Ukraine.
It was a one sentence challenge, worth more that 3,000 pages of the drivel here. 
 
…..  inspirationally.

You know, it all depends on what we’re used to.
10,000 years ago the ocean levels were 400 feet lower than they are now. But everybody was used to it.
At one time what is now the Sahara desert at the northern end of Africa's used to be lush jungle.
It all depends on what we used to.
Whatever it is things have adapted.
Don’t worry about it.
Be cool. Be happy.
Don’t sweat the small stuff.

At the time of the last Solar System survey, the best bet for life would have been Mars .….. Mars, with its oceans and temperate climate and two moons, which at the same time the Earth was a cratered molten ball of volcanic lava, with a huge moon that circled very fast and close, dragging tsunamis of lava behind it continuously.

As a Christian I will keep calm here. BUT That article from a May 1974 Kingdom Ministry IS encouraging people to sell their houses and give up their 'lifestyle' to pioneer BECAUSE of the so called 'short time remaining' before Armageddon.
It was all hype. And if they did not believe that Armageddon would happen in 1975, then why were they encouraging this irresponsible behavior of their congregants. When it didn't happen many people found themselves in a bad position without jobs or money to live on. 
"Short time remaining" , "Short time left" "The end of this system is so very near" 
Direct quotes from that article. and that was written in 1974. 
Truther ? I think not. Denier more like. 

Help for Ukraine: 20+ charities on the frontlines - National Christian Foundation (ncfgiving.com)
Myself and my church give to some of these charities, and as you notice they don't limit their aide.
So I've shown you mine, now show me yours.....except it has to be from a 3rd party non-watchtower reporting service. As of now the only elephant in the room is your inability to back up your claim.

This doesn't answer my question: Where is your charity helping refugees from Ukraine in a better way than JWs? And if there isn't, why are you criticizing them?
And I think I'll ask you another question: Given that about 75% of all Ukrainians are orthodox Christians, why don't they flee to Russia and Belarus, where there is the world's largest community of orthodox Christians, probably more than 70million of them? That's a real and serious question that points at the elephant standing around in the room, being ignored by you.

Well if that’s all it takes…..
You and me, you ol pork chop. Any time. Any place. I’ll pound the stuffing out of you!
(Gotta hand it to Musk. I like the guy. Strictly speaking, though, Putin should decline, match him up with an oligarch instead, and challenge President Joe.)

WT publications after 1975 and today, also public speeches, (go in the direction of explaining that 1975 is the end of 6000 years of human history and as part of the idea that then could begin the 1000 year of Christ's Kingdom), comes down to "accusing" some individuals who misunderstood the thesis of announcing the 6000th anniversary of the creation of Adam.
I’ve never read in WT publications what kind of individuals that means. What is the structure of these individuals; elders, some GB members, someone from the general population, females or males JW members etc.?
All subsequent interpretations regarding 1975 never include the WTJWorg Administration or any portion thereof. This is important to note, as it shows that religious leadership wants to be free from any error in this regard (despite constant claims that they- GB are imperfect and how spiritual food is imperfect and erroneous).
After such a set scene, the only thing left is to call out unimportant individuals who began to fantasize so deeply about 1975 that they initiated thought processes that prompted them to make extraordinary efforts to witness, resign from work, sell houses and the like. In addition to the "positive effect" of such a spiritual and emotional state (a great increase in preaching, biblical studies and new baptisms), there is also a negative aspect of faith in the coming of Armageddon and hope for the establishment of the Kingdom.
Is the non-recognition of the GB administration (of that time) that they had participated in the 1975 euphoria a form of selective informing of JW members? And is today’s GB deliberately covering up the real past?

@Srecko Sostar As pointed out earlier because of the Drone. Now there is even more confusion hence why I was clear on why you cannot trust the MSM 100%. The narrative has changed to both Russia and Ukraine pointing the figure at each other and some are now claiming there was a Bomb inside the Drone; for it would not make sense for Ukraine to have a Bomb intended for Croatia, and now Croatia is at the heels of NATO criticizing them.
Both Russia and Ukraine have denied they launched the drone.
The Croatian Defense Minister Mario Banozic: “Traces of explosives and clues suggesting that this was not a reconnaissance aircraft were found. We found parts of an air bomb."
So it is a wise move to actually wait before jumping to conclusion based off of speculation.

Then tell your “anointed” to take their lamp-oil business elsewhere and watch the “economy” of the “Great Eight” collapse like Putin’s Russia. Sheesh! This is so stupid it’s hard to see how anyone could take it seriously! There’s only eight of them! And if you think they are all fraudsters just cut them out from your glorious company and do your magnificent deeds without them! See if you can make them cry over that. 

Please do tell us where and when so that we may check it out. Thanks
