RULES AND REGULATIONS, I don't know you, or anybody, who knows the truth about "the truth" can sit through it. I couldn't. I don't blame you for walking out.
I walked out in the middle of the Watchtower Study yesterday............

BLAME aside...if hundreds of thousands, nay MILLIONS of people over the ENTIRE planet believed that the SAME thing is going to happen in the SAME year and ONLY to Jehovahs Witnesses....AND BELIEVED IT ALL AT THE SAME TIME...
Either thats the BIGGEST freakin MIRACLE in the history of the world OR SOMEBODY LEAD THEM TO BELIEVE IT. DUHHHHH
Ive seen "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" where people all around the planet were sculpting this strange mountain formation located in Arizona from their mashed potatoes because aliens were telling them to come there by messing with their MINDS...
This aint THAT folks. And any idiot who believes the R&F (who are considered STUPID to begin with)..came up with AND CONVINCED OTHERS OF...this wild life altering idea, then he deserves to live in the hell that is the JWs.

The Watchtower is lying. They have their finger on the pulse of every single congregation.
The focus on 1975 was the topic of conversation in every congregation througout the world. It wasn't an isolated speculation.
So why the hell didn't they dispell that mistaken notion. It persisted from 1966 all the way to 1975.
Either they promoted the 1975 idea or they failed as the faithful and discreet slave by not rooting it out during the years that this was going on. Which is the greater blunder? The greater sin is shifting blame and lying about it.
If anyone dares to refer to the 1975 date they will be counseled. I know of elder's who have gotten phone calls from CO's because it was rumored that they said some things about 1975. Well, if they can do this a quarter of a century after the date - then why couldn't they shut up anyone who was promoting the date prior to 1975.
I had supper at a relatives house after 1975 and Karl Klein was at the table. The subject of 1975 came up. He said the brothers on the GB were razzing Fred Franz in the summer of 1975 about whether he still felt the end was coming. He quoted Franz's response "it isn't October yet!"

Gumby said:
I leaned over to my dub wife and said" you don't know how these comments piss me off". My wife WELL remembers how the brothers and the C.O. was looking at there watches and counting off the days till 1975 would be here and the end would come. I also told her that I cannot understand why so many don't see what I was seeing in these comments and what the Watchtower was stating.
Gumby: We all know you went back for the family.My family and I also went thru 1975.I walked out because it bothered me that these comments were all lies and that the WTS always blames its members for leaving and that "THEY" the members read into things.I went to the bathroom,called my wife{ who is not a Witness }and demanded that she pick me up as soon as possible.I got in the car and told her I was happy that she never believed in the CRAPTOWER.She told me to calm down since I was so riled up.Now,I'm going to get a call from my mom to see why I left early.

I don't blame you for walking out Rules Regulations, it's the same old crap year in, year out, and the r&f are expected to swallow it without a word of dissent. I'm glad I don't have to go through all that nowadays.

"In 1914, our brothers and sisters were waiting for the end and never came.In 1975,there were many brothers and sisters that waited for the end and it never came.These brothers became disheartened and left.They went back to this world and never to come back because they loved the things in the world.We need to be patient because the end is near.We don't want to be like these brothers where they ignored all the signs."
Isn't that comment tantamount to saying; 'Why can't these idiots see that just because we lied and played God doesn't mean we don't have the Truth and God on our side? "
As Ron White would say 'You can't fix stupid.'

The point is that they have a 100% failure rate when it comes to predictions about the end and also these predictions often created losses for many members that took them seriously especially in 1975. They then blame the victims instead of themselves for misleading everyone.
