> > > 1990 Pure Language District Convention
It was the 1990 convention where the parallel comparison was made to Noah and his family remaining childless during the 40 years of ark construction,and how we must remain childless building the spiritual ark as the end is just soooooo close.There was a worldwide follow up primary watchtower study that fall to reinterate.
Resulting fallout-Anyone who got 'knocked up' later on was scorned in my congregation for not following Jehovah's direction and think yes just think of all the sisters close to menopause who lost out on the chance to have a baby.
Hey! They reviled my parents for getting 'knocked up' with me (pre birth control pill era) in the year 1957
We had lively car group discussions commuting to the Providence Rhode Island civic center on how this is it,as the society said 'no kids' in 1925 and would never repeat the same mistake again.I quit my $50 K a year job to go out in service knowing that i would never need my retirement fund.
This same convention that had a two elder sit down demo on instruction not to watch the animated simpsons TV show,our car gorup agreed to not watch it anymore as we might lose favor with Jehovah.
Ahhhhh,armageddon is just soooo close.
Yes indeed the Watchtower is a classic high demand destructive apocalyptic cult.
