It all looks so biblical. But the sick thing is they tell you that you can't be part of the new covenant thereby eliminating all chances of passing judgement. -

I now know I should never have being baptized as I did not understand all the ramifications of being a baptized JW. If I would have waited till I got out and worked in the world and educated myself it would have been different. -

gee, mine were awful, lol id not show them if someone paid me.
I did not save any because when i decided to leave the wt teachings for good i tossed those and many other assembly photos away. the only ones i did keep were when i was very young back in the 60's and 70's.and only because half my mothers side of the family are jw's and they were in those ones.

When I got baptized over 3 decades ago, you were considered "puffed up with pride" if you allowed someone to take a picture of you during or immediately after your baptism... That didn't stop many from taking pictures but this was seriously frowned upon. That mentality changed sometime after Whacky Freddy died. -

March 25 1989. Fremont Assembly Hall.
They used to let you get baptized with your spouse. ( that's my first wife ) we were 19 and 20 years old.

Baptism, you now have just signed a billion-year contract to the Borg in j-dub thinking . Clearly not something a person under age 19 can comprehend. -
