About a week ago, I had my "encouraging visit!" It was real last minute, and I said , "Yes! Right now!" They were not expecting that, and they missed their dinner.
So I recorded the whole thing. I kinda feel mean because these people were actually sincere. The great thing was that my wife threw me under the bus. Talk about being betrayed by your intimate companion?!?! SHEESH!! Well, I'm not mad. I knew she would roll on me. I stood my ground though.
I "confessed" to having doubts. I was very honest and straightforward about all the changes in our doctrine. I just said that I have trouble teaching what I know is not true. I refused to recant about the WT containing human ideas which are subject to change. The Eldub in charge said, " blah blah blah, refreshment, nu-light, rushing ahead...BAD!! Watchtower...GOOD!!! Preach what magazines say!" " EVEN IF IT'S WRONG???", I say. PAUSE.........................."YES!!"
There is no helping these people. The END is close!! The paradise is close! They said that Christians have always been over- eager in the past! Change is progressive! Just look at the ORG!! It's working miracles as we speak!!
Sadly, I did not have enough time to speak of the "miracle" of pedophile cover-ups or real estate ventures. Oh, well. Maybe next time! Sorry that I cannot share the recording. I would not make things up. I was actually told to preach whatever is current, even if it's wrong. It was great to hear!! Bat-shit crazy bastards.
