Remember getting the sense that when Armageddon final comes everyone will "have to know" that it was Jehovah?

When my parent's try to scare me back to "the truth", they usually get frustrated, and give up with a smug, "just wait, you'll see, but then it will be too late!" I'm not sure why they sound smug, since they are talking about my impending destruction. You'd think they'd be sobbing hysterically. I've come to the conclusion, that being "right" is more important to them than me being alive if that means they were "wrong". Hmmm.....
That was more than just "getting the sense" it was a quote from Ezekial.
Oh yeah, I remember, I'm shaking in my boots just thinking about it. NOT.
I am hoping to be alive whan I can say " I told you so", the day when The Nations Shall Know that JW org is a Scam.
I can recall occasions in field service when, after a particularly "nasty" (i.e., gave us objections we couldn't overcome) householder got through with us, we'd comment something along the lines of "when Armageddon comes, I'm bringing a lawn chair to sit on that guys front yard".
Amen, Phizzy!
Phats.
Desperately hoping something is true, does not true, make it.

Honestly, who would want to go through the WT's version of Armageddon or the Great Tribulation.
Why did we always secretly hope it would come during the prayer on Sunday afternoon's convention?

So sad.
Phizzy, so well said:

Hi,
Sometimes folks much rather be right than real.

So, my wife and I are at relatives for Christmas for the first time in our 18 year marriage and 25 years for me.
No Armageddon.
Dodged that bullet.
Maybe next year...
