hmmm it kinda depends how you define prophet, they have never actually given a date for armegeddon, lol if 1975 is ever mentioned in a watchtower as a date i'm sure it wold have been shown me before now :) Responsibility

The state of being responsible, accountable, or answerable, as for a trust, debt, or obligation.

That for which anyone is responsible or accountable; as, the responsibilities of power.

Ability to answer in payment; means of paying. http://www.brainyquote.com/words/re/responsibility212663.html (1980 Yearbook,pp.30-31) "The brothers also appreciated the candor of this same talk, which acknowledged the Society's responsibility for some of the disappointment a number felt regarding 1975."

Actually, they have:

the 'battle of the great day of God Almighty', which will end in AD 1914 with the complete overthrow of earth's present rulership, is already commenced." The Time Is At Hand, 1911 ed., p. 101.

End in 1914 (?) Already commenced (?)

While it was an agreeable surprise to us (in view of the contrary sensational accounts so often published) to find the situation in Europe as we here describe it--in harmony with what the Scriptures had led us to expect--yet so great is our confidence in the Word of God and in the light of present truth shining upon it, that we could not have doubted its testimony whatever had been the appearances. The date of the close of that "battle" is definitely marked in Scripture as October, 1914. It is already in progress, its beginning dating from October, 1874. Thus far it has been chiefly a battle of words and a time of organizing forces --capital, labor, armies and secret societies.

Given the absolutely despicable, mindless, and pathetic comment that Reniaa made here:

it appears obvious to me that she will never, ever, ever, ever, ever listen to reason. Therefore, I move that we:

1. Accept that Reniaa is an active Dub;

2. Refuse to contribute to the hours and hours she must turn in monthly on her time slip by "debating" with her here;

3. Boycott all of her threads.

If no one posts replies on her threads, maybe she will stop regurgitating the ludicrous WTS doctrines and will actually have time available to read the threads by those of us who have seen the light and disconnected from the Borg.

Who is with me???!!!!

Thank you for your replies i'm sorry I haven't answered to many appearing from all directions for one person :S I feel I've taken on more than I could handle but I hope you got something from this thread

By the way the first set of links mostly do not work so I reposted them further down.

sTann, w/ all due respect, i don't listen to the elders on who to associate w/ write too, etc., and i'm not about to listen to you on that either.

hi altlantis

thankyou for your info on 1975 it's not a wt but it was nice to see the Jws acknowledge some responsibility for 1975.

Avi, I take it you're not seconding my motion, as is your right in a civil society. Quite unlike all those silly motions they used to take at the KH where no one dared dissent.

Ah, yes, life outside of the WTS is good....!

insearchoftruth

I thought there were a few Awake articles that were pretty specific when pointing to 1975....

reniaa

hi avishai thank you for submitting the cases,

I'm sure many will take the time to read them.

To Stann, Mary, and Outlaw feel free to ignore me and my threads as I intend to ignore you or anyone that resorts to abusing/scoffing words concerning me.

reniaa,

To those who are experienced in dealing with Jehovah's Witnesses, it is clear that you are avoiding topics and not persons.

It's obvious at this point that you are comfortable following liars and false prophets. You probably reason that 'since they are Jehovah's Organization (tm), it's ok that they lie and falsely prophecy', all the while failing to recognize that it is those very lies and false prophecies that prove conclusively that they are not and can not possibly be God's organization.

Such reasoning is known as 'circular reasoning', by the way, and it's a logical fallacy employed on a consistent basis by the WTS.

All the best to you reniaa. You've demonstrated that you can not or will not respond to the 'hard questions' so I see no point in continuing with this discussion. I do hope that you come to terms with the true nature of the organization you are following. But, well, I won't hold my breath. :)

TS,
