Sorry for your having to endure this mindless d!ck's manipulation.
A possible reply, just to shake his own self-righteousness: "What makes you think you will be there to see my dad ask about me?"

''Your dad will be wondering where you are at the resurrection''
No he won't. Maybe for a while but eventually he will completely forget you even existed or that he even had such a child. That way he can be happy in Paradise. If he ever remembered that he once had a child that didn't ''make it'' that would make him sad and as there won't be any sadness in the ''New System'' that particular memory will have to be completely erased. Lovely.

Holy crap, Zid, that was a sad story! It seems sensational, but not after I think about it. Come to think of it the person administering the guilt probably wouldn't be able to consciously call it guilt. To a Witness, the dying mother is going to paradise soon leaving her children behind as Armageddon fodder. If the big A could be next week then the urgency is warranted, right? In the Witness doctrine people who die in Armageddon are given automatic gehenna because they rejected God's earthly organization. I think sometimes I forget that they actually believe what say, it's an odd mental process.

I wonder if he wrote it real slow so he could count his first half hour of service time on you.
I think would send him a message back saying that resurrection into Watchtower World has about as much chance of happening as the generation that saw the events of 1914 not passing away did.

Sabastious, the story wasn't sensational - just the way I posted it. I'm a drama dragon, don't you know??
Unfortunately, the story itself was only too typical...

Isn't the reason to be a JW is for the sanctification of Jehovah's name? If you're going to do it for selfish reasons, like seeing your loved one after Armageddon, you're not going to make it anyway. If you don't believe everything about the JWs, you're condemned to death anyway. Besides the obvious emotional blackmail that is so obvious in this message, it's dripping with the "holier than thou" attitude that's rampant within the JWs.Maybe the JWs are finally realizing that the world is learning the truth about them and not joining their little cult at the rate that they would like. They're going to do what newspapers and magazines do when their readership is down...contact former subscribers and see if they would like to sign up again. So sad.

Zid, I don't think it was sensational, it just seems sensational, when in fact it is just normal Witness behaviour. Sometimes it manifests in guilt trips and other times in paranoid delusions.

Well look how happy Job was when his children were simply replaced! JW's always look to Job for hope.
