Thus, in the context of all other social issues, pestilences and food shortages, saying there would be "tremors" in one place after the other lends itself to "social unrest" or "agitations" socially in one place after the other, OPTIONALLY. This is likely the reference here rather than literal earthquakes in one place after the other. Certainly the post 1914 times can be characterized as one which had social unrest and "agitations" on one place after the other, after all, those things led right from World War I to World War II
JCanon, WWI was a really really stupid war. it wasn't fought over social unrest. the whole reason WWI happened was because a German assasinated a Austrian prince. Then Germany and Austria went to war with each other. But the problem with that was that EVERYBODY had either a NAP with each other or were secret allies or something like that. It was a big mess all over nothing, much less a prince that didn't have very big chances of succeeding to the throne. WWII wasn't directly affected by WWI. Yes Hitler broke his promise and armed his country, but nobody took agression towards Germany for it. Nobody took agression towards Germany until Hitler started to invade countries.
In any case, this Watchtower magazine is full of propaganda and deceptions. Later tonite i plan on posting about the first half of the article on Millerites and dating and such. That is my big problem, and i think it'll be a good time. Good reading Blondie, thanks for the time and research. I found it interesting, and I plan on talking to the elder i study with about a lot of the comments.

did i say masturbation? there's nowhere in the bible that refers to whackin being bad.
I always had doubts about the bibles miracles stories. Jesus feeding thousands with 3 loaves of bread and two fish, Lots wife turning to salt, the ten commandments and golden calf, the splitting of the red sea, Jesus walking on water, the destruction of Sodom and Gommorah, leaven bread.
I was watching something the other day on the History Channel, and something that is interesting that a lot of people don't know is that where Lot's wife turned to salt, there are a lot of salt towers, and one of the towers could have easily looked like Lot's wife, especially after a panic, such as Jehoovers blowing up a city.

Covering up bathroom mirrors at the assemblies!!!
by nojudgement inthis was one of the craziest things i remember about the summer conventions.
i would go into the sister's bathrooms and the mirrors would all be taped up with brown paper so that we couldn't look at our reflections.
were were amish or something?

my guess is it was about keeping the cleaning down.. you know how they are about simplyfying everything so you aren't kept from hearing the important information from the platform!
wouldn't it take more time to put up the brown paper and measure it and take it down and such, than it would be to clean the mirrors.
