Yes- I had my fill of JWs this year. Thank you for the kind words of encouragement.
While I was on vacation, I stopped to visit a friend up north who is dealing with an adult daughter who has gone over to the the JWs. It became obvious to me, she is in it for the social aspect, as any negative facts he tries to share with her go nowhere. She has learned to employ the standard WT though stopping tactic=, I didn't come over here to argue about religion" ,to weasel out of an honest dialogue with her father.
Plus, for some reason they have really been hitting my neighborhood, like 3 times in 6 months. Before that it was one time very couple years.They have never talked to me at my house, but I would come home to the tract in the door. So, I would go for a walk with the dog and find them close by. Stop and chat with them. They would love to get away from me, but I just walk down the sidewalk with them and talk away.
"Would you like to see my original 1920 WatchTower? I can go get it. It's really great. It has a cross on the cover. The main article is the brand new truth from Bethel, "millions now living will never die". Except they all did. That was the 1914 generation. I'll bet JWs don't believe that generation is still alive-- do they? Only a dope would believe that, right? Have you ever looked up "Beth Sarim" on the Internet-- that's the big mansion the WT built for Abraham, David and all the ancient worthies who were getting resurrected any day, right after Armageddon. Can you believe the stupidity of the WT, they even made the deed out to them!
Gab, Gab, I just get on a roll-after a minute I'm the only one talking, haha. I won't let them change the subject to something in their comfort zone-- no sirree.
How long you been a JW? Over 60 years! Wow, then you remember the "stay alive until 1975" hoopla, don't you? You don't? Now don't be joshing me, I know better, I heard it myself. Look up Charles Sinutko on the Internet-- he gave a talk at a WT assembly in 1969 and used those very words. I even called him up personally one time- he never denied saying that. He spent over 70 years pulling the plow for the Watchtower-- and today he lives in a trailer park-- some retirement- right?
Well, by the time they get back to their car, they are a basket case from the can of whoop ass I unloaded on them. I'm not mean about it, just concerned for their life. If there is an elder type in the car, well, I am not so nice to them. They get the 1914-2014 treatment and more-- as Mr Elder puts the car in gear and makes a quick getaway for a the KH-- service time is over.
Well, I see my 2 hour upgrade to Windows 10 on my laptop is finished-- time to see how it works
