    Please for give me if it is. I just received a call from an EX JW who was DF the same time as me.
    For not accepting 1914..... She picked up the WT at the library,Jan 1st 2013 page 8 They there
    admit they have made errors in the dates they have given.....Maybe this is why so many are leaving.
    They told us that 1914 born folks would see ARMEGEDDON .I was born in 1927...I am 86 in May????
    So if you want proof they are liars ,at least they HAVE to admit it now....

    Yes it was posted here:

    They sort of admit it, but they frame it as "wrong expectations" instead of "false prophecies". And then it seems they praise themselves for having wrong expectations by comparing their wrong expectations to the over-eagerness for the Kingdom by the 1st century apostles.

    So this is another strange way for them to glorify how wonderful they are.

    They don't admit or apologize for errors...and "wrong expectations" are given to JWs as a whole, rather than the leadership who created those expectations.

    And it seems 1914 is still in play for the time being.

    Mouthy:

    You are welcome. You are not stupid; it would have been stupid not even to ask.

    I was more than happy to direct you to the correct discussion thread!! I don't know if you remember but I formerly posted here a lot more often than I do now. I have really enjoyed being acquainted with you, from a distance, for a long time.

    Oh Gopher Of course I do remember you. You know something I am losing it ( mentally)but when folks
    remind me I then remember. My daughter that is a JW is going to be 67 tomorrow.& she must have NOTHING
    to do with me because the old men at Brooklyn told her I am evil. I do missher so.

    Thanks for helping me Gopher .I really appreciate it very much. GOPHER

    Same back to you, Mouthy!!

    I also miss my 75 and 80-year old JW parents, although they're 1000 miles away from me physically and now even farther emotionally.

    Keep up your "evil" ways. We love you here!
