Pudgy

Hey, your talking about yourself, well done. It was a long time coming!

You mean the wild beast that attacks, lies about people, denigrates people for no reason to exalt them selves, and slanders them with false accusations?
…….  Whom so ever could that be?
Hmmmmmm?

I will reply again since y'all chose to not look at the context of the question. This question puts me in the waiting area, not on the plane as you guys are thinking. Now if I were on the plane with my loved one, of course they would be first. Man I think all this debating you guys are doing is causing a state of idiocracy in this forum.

To this day the Mainstream still believe that they are like the early church when they are not.

Let it be as you said  

The point is this:
invisible things that supposedly happened in heaven in 1914, for which there is not a single shred of evidence their invisible kingdom with an invisible presence supported by invisible people, or angels as the case may be is completely indistinguishable …… Based on facts…… From a delusional fantasy.
The Bible said that nobody knows when Armageddon is going to take place and it would surprise everybody.
So far, every person, group, and organization that has claimed insight and ability to explain prophecy as always without exception been 100% WRONG.
That arrogance, fraud and just being flat wrong has been going on for at least 2000 years.
There have been no exceptions.
And I believe, that is the point.

@Pudgy Essentially like an adversary of mine, in which this deranged woman lies due to actions she has committed, and somehow said or cohorts by means of a rallying cry, insult and slander.
She says one thing, some believe it, others don't and pay for it.

For those that have been on the ARCHIVE for many years, we remember that what has been said about this if it was assembled and stapled  together it would be about  a 1000 page book.
 
Everything that has been said or could’ve been said has been said, over and over and over and over. Then it’s been rephrased a dozen times In a dozen different ways and that has been resaid over and over.

It’s real simple for me, because I was there and I watched it happen from California to the Congo and in the state of Virginia in the middle.

The battle cry was “stay alive till ‘75”
.…. which, surprisingly, I’ve been able to manage, so far.

The thing that often comes to my mind is the parable of the boy who continually cried “Wolf!!”, when there was no wolf.
somehow I find the same sort of thing acceptable with Air Raid drills.

Aren't JWs told to look to the leadership comprised of men, for guidance? Haven't they told JWs they must trust them because God does?  Who are you fooling but yourself?  It is a wise person that gets off a crooked path.  Prov 2:11-15  It is a wise person who can see how such a leadership has ridiculed the word of God.  (Eccl 1:15; James 1:17)
The same men continued to lead JWs down a crooked road, after 1975. 
 If the wicked system of this world survived until the turn of the century (the year 2000), which is highly improbable in view of world trends and the fulfillment of Bible prophecy, there would still be survivors of the World War I generation. However, the fact that their number is dwindling is one more indication that "the conclusion of the system of things" is moving fast toward its end. (The Watchtower, Oct. 15, 1980, p. 31)
Those JWs who picked themselves up after the 1975 debacle, straightened their shoulders and prepared again for the of the world to come to an end, by the year 2000.  This is oppression to lies; it is an emotionally draining captivity to false expectations. Do you really think Jesus meant that this is how he would feed his sheep, when he said, “Come to me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest"?  Matt 11:28  
The Wt. continually creates situations that call for a spiritual adrenaline output, which runs people into the ground.  Any who realize this, have every right to reject what the leaders tell them - not in secret as JWs do here, but by standing up against lies, as Jesus Christ and the apostles did.  Since when did that change? When did it become a rule that a person cannot speak out against false teachings?  It became a rule when the Wt. was born. That type of "restorationism" is false doctrine, being "restored".   Matt 15:9
Adrenaline - "The secretion of adrenaline is a part of the human “fight or flight” response, the acute stress response to fear, perceived threat, or panic."      "...over time, persistent surges of adrenaline can damage your blood vessels, and elevate your risk of heart attacks or stroke. It can also result in anxiety, weight gain, headaches, and insomnia."
Isa 59:8 - They have not known the path of peace,
and there is no justice in their ways.
They have made their roads crooked;
no one who walks on them will know peace.
 
 
 

Take for example one of the most important doctrines; The last days began in 1914. Jesus ’return is tied to 1914 because there was a war in heaven against Satan. It is a doctrine, derived from several "mysteries" contained in biblical passages about; 2520 days, 1260 days, day for year, seven times and the like, and  built with the help of "stellar minds".
Doctrine/s emerges from the "mystery" explained by some people. From the doctrine arises the "prophecy" foretold by Armageddon in this or that year, this or that period of time. How did the "overlapping generation" doctrine come about? In a similar way. What does the doctrinal interpretation of “generation” predict? Same again, Armageddon. 
Two "separate" things can't stay alive without each other..... in WTJWorg World.

The notion of unity and uniformity has unusual consequences for JW members.
The interpretations of one group of elders in one congregation may differ significantly from another congregation in the same city.
This was often seen in the summer months around the insistence that speakers wear a jacket while speaking point. Well then if he can without a jacket, does the shirt have to have long sleeves or can he with short ones and the like. The absurdities of spiritual maturity in the JW brothers come to the fore.
Well then for example, can an assembly trip be organized or not. Some elders allowed it, and some were against it.
In the former Yugoslavia, we were often amazed by the directives from America, because there is HQ. Because the JW brothers on the old continent in a communist country did not have such a mindset as their “capitalist brothers”. :))

True, due to cultural differences. For example, many Koreans still study for doctorate degrees while pioneering. It is in the culture for them because they still have the idea of looking after family in old age..... in the back of their minds or psyche. 

Mmm well I remember the MAD magazines also…and I never got them either….but as long as they gave you a laugh…we each have our own sense of humour😊

That’s one thing that has amazed me as I have developed friends from all over the world since internet and how even in the truth something can be a issue in one place and not even be mentioned in another place…at first it was hard to grasp but then it helped me understand the diversity amongst us…it was a issue over here..but seems not in other places…

Yet being a fool for displaying (suggestive) brilliant art work after a particular conviction. When people say, as you age, a person gets wiser, too many disprove the logic. 😏
I guess the intelligence gene is in the hair. 😮

I was speaking about “our Theology” To include all living things on planet Earth. Please go back and re-read that post with my intended perspective and see if it looks better then.
My “broad stroke” was intended to be understood as planetary in scope.
Perhaps I should have been more specific, but I did not think it would be misunderstood.
Also, I am five or more years older than you, and was in California when the hustle started, an the Congo in late 1974, so our experiences might be expected to be completely different.
 

THIS one is to me, incredibly Brilliant humor!
 

So?
Either you “get” innuendo non-sequiter nuanced humor …. Or you don’t.
Usually, those that build pictures in their minds with each word in a sentence they read, “get” visual humor as well.

It often takes a hundred years.

I was overseas working at the time, and I did not speak the local languages.
By the way, my kind of humor is usually reserved to guys my age who grew up reading MAD Magazine, and like  stand-up comedians like Robin Williams and Lewis Black.
