I was in the grocery store and met a cousin I haven't seen in years. The first thing he asked me was, do you go to the meeting now? I said no. He mentioned how Armageddon was so close. I said haven't you heard, they changed the generation thing in 1995. It's not comming before all the oldtimers die off from 1914, but a generation is just a social period which is an undetermined time. They also changed the Awake introduction from this century to real soon now.
I told him I had looked back into the history of the Russell and Rutherford times and had seen how much had been changed. He mentioned the JWs having the "TRUTH" and I said it is either the truth or it isn't, you can't just keep changing it all the time and call it new light. He seemed shocked at my new way of thinking. He had a strange look in his eyes. This was a brother of the cousin that called the other day in service.
It felt good to talk honestly to a JW and not hide your real thinking. I just don't care anymore if they DA me, DF me or whatever.
