damn man, they have failed on so many prophecies, why would i believe anything they say now... its been enough..
I know and see what you're saying theinfamousone. I know there have been a few failed prophecies. I just don't pay attention too much to that. I just want something better then what this world has to offer.
Every religion / faith offers something better for the future. For the witnesses, life in a paradise earth. For Catholics, I think it's going to heaven after you die. For others getting caught up in the Rapture, and so on and so on...
Besides you have to be somewhere. All faiths say something or have said something that dubious at best. Right now I'm just concentrating on being a better, more spiritual person -- concentrating on me. I know there have been a few other JW's that have been harsh, mean, tell lies and hypocritical. But that's just them. I think you'll see that wherever you'll go.
sass_my_frass "they" haven't stolen my life. Yeah I still do grumble from time to time over some of the things taught, especially to "marry only in the Lord". And life's too short to feel bitter over minor changes in the Truth. Enjoy life and do what I can. I know some of you won't like me for feeling that way but that's my approach.
