Kids! Just Say No To Armageddon! (Dec.1 WT)

    Kids! There are some heartless predators in your neighborhood - and they're trying to get you

    hooked on their addictive 'junk'. Besides dope, alcohol, meth and crack, you need to be

    informed about the dangers of the "Armageddon" drug.

    Many a young person's promising career in athletics or college has been derailed by falling

    into the trap of Armageddon addiction. The "pushers" of this dangerous drug shamelessly

    denigrate higher education and other wholesome achievement - all to selfishly gain more

    magazine peddlers who need to support their Armageddon habit - and tragically, the hands of

    law enforcement officials are often powerless to stop them.

    The effects of Armageddon addiction are well known and similar to other illict drugs -

    Isolation from family, drawing away from friends ( often insulted as "bad associations" )

    and an unmerited sense of superiority (feeling that God will soon kill everyone else) often

    identifies the Armageddon "user". In addition, addicts to this drug may suffer from intensely

    negative mental images of death and slaughter, similar to other hallucinatory substances.

    (see "Revelation - Its Grand Climax At Hand! for examples).

    As with marijuana and alcohol, Armageddon addiction interferes with sound judgement

    and critical thinking ability, often exposing the individual as easy prey to deception and

    fraud. ( such as irrational trust after 120 years of prophetic failure). Victims of this tragic

    burden often suffer from chronic depression and delusions that they are "above the law",

    willingly covering up shameful and illegal activities - even child molesting! Consistent with

    this, the Armageddon addict usually develops extreme sociopathic mental disorders,

    thinking that every kind, loving, caring, generous person they ever met in their life - who isn't

    a fellow addict - is a "pest" that God wants to kill right away ( Dec. 1 '05 WT pg. 6)

    What a sad and sick state of mind!

    You young people take a warning! Take note of the pathetic figures you frequently see

    on city streets - or dragging themselves door to door in your own neighborhood! They didn't

    listen to the warnings about the dangers of Armageddon addiction - and so now are enslaved

    to grinning elderly "pushers" and do whatever they demand ( Dec.1, 2005 WT pg 10).

    You don't want to end up like one of them, do you?

    Megatron- That's a GOOD one!! Wouldn't it be nice to copy that and distribute to the local schools, and of course on windshields during a meeting!

    I needed that laugh this morning!

    I was just describing this exact scenario to my therapist the other day.
    I was asking him how can I get past this, and live with this in my own house
    and how to not let it get in the way of relationships, the same way
    you'd want to know how to interact with a close family member who is
    an alcoholic, gambler, addict, etc.

    amazing piece, thanks
    like I want to make copies and put them in the trick or treat bags !
