  Hello,

  Strangely enough Frederick Franz, in one his interpretations in the 'Your Will Be Done' book, did suggest that just before Armageddon the WTS would be crushed. He applied the condition of the city called Ariel, mentioned in the Book Of Daniel ( referring to Jerusalem ) which was prophetically spoken of as being crushed into the dust by God's enemies, to the condition of the WTS just before deliverance of Gods people at Armageddon.

  Understandably the WTS has never referred to this interpretation again, though Watchman ( You Know? ) does seem to have resurrected it. It is amazing how interpretive insanity seems to reflect similar symptoms!

  sometimes the brainwashing is so deep, you don't even realize it. As an example of this, an old friend of mine who used to post here (Collegegirl) clearly saw certain things but really couldn't get around the fact that her friends / family would treat her differently. So she reverted back to "going through the motions". Unless you make a clear break, you will always be defending the corporation.

  Maybe the spirit of Fred Franz is actually directing e-Watchman... you know, just like the spirit of Russell was directing the WTS after he died. :D
