If you are studying and going to meetings and all you hear is that armageddon is coming any minute; especially in the mid 80s- every magazine saying UN declares 1986 to be year or peace tied with the scripture of the fake peace and security cry and instant destruction (armageddon) being upon them, along with 1914 generation not dying off, etc., etc.,
Nope, no pressure here!! ouch littlerockguy i can concur with everything you said..thats why i got baptized in 1987 at17.Mind you i was told if i turned 18 and wasnt baptized i would be out on my ear too. Think thats was the clincher.

No pressure. I was 14 and a true believer.

Yes, I sort of felt pressured too. But I went along with the flow and got baptized anyway. I don't know if I was ready or not but I did.

No, but at 12yrs old, I should have been stopped dead in my tracks. What the hell does a 12yr old know about such serious commitments like this. Your just set up to fail. Then again with such lofty expectations from this deluded organization, eventually reality does take over..........rocky220
