    A rather remarkable quote from the first article posted:

    ***

    g93 3/22 p. 3 Why So Many False Alarms? ***

    THE story is told of a boy who watched the sheep of the villagers. To stir up a bit of excitement, one day he cried out, "Wolf! Wolf!" when there was no wolf. The villagers rushed out with clubs to drive off the wolf, only to find that there was none. It was such great fun that later on the boy repeated his cry. Again the villagers rushed out with their clubs, only to discover that it was another false alarm. After that a wolf did come, and the boy sounded the warning, "Wolf! Wolf!" but the villagers dismissed his cry as another false alarm. They had been fooled too often.

    So it has become with those who proclaim the end of the world. Down through the centuries since Jesus’ day, so many unfulfilled predictions have been made that many no longer take them seriously.

    Atlantis...thanks for the scans. There are various sites that contain these same articles you scanned and these articles can be copy and pasted into a post and you can highlight certain points without posting the entire article if you wish. Hope that helps

    LOL! Well I always was a Witness and still am...I guess...I'm not DF or DA but I keep a pretty low profile (after being rather high profile hehe). Actually, I got caught up in "clinking frosty mugs" with peeps on other XJW sites which I suspect can't be named here. Having only "x"' amount of time to post on internet boards, I ended up focusing on just that one board but I think that might change now. I've been reading this board all day today and I find that I'm inspired to contribute here again. Furthermore I feel impelled to post more than my previous one-liners and sexual innuendo. Imagine that!

    OK Gumby!

    I was going to post the two articles that Severus mentioned, and the ones that Blondie mentioned but I will just stop right here respecting your advice.

    Cheers!

    Gumby:

    In all the posts you have offered us, you have [never] sounded bossy!

    But anyone who has read your excellent informative posts knows that when you offer us some advice it is for a good reason and that counsel should be respected.

    Thank you for all you have done for us my friend! You certainly have my respect! And well deserved.

    Cheers!
