I thought...yay I have a reason to leave. The crap that they were spewing was unreal. I was getting counseled, as a child, on the comics I could read, the music I could listen to, and the things I did in my spare time. It was obviously a fraud. I only needed them to confirm it. HAIL CHRISTMAS AND HALLOWEEN!

Describe your first thoughts upon hearing the 1914 generation 'new light'
by kid-A in.
we all remember where we were and what we were thinking during highly significant events....(e.g.
9-11, jfk, etc)..... if you can recall, what were the first thoughts racing through your mind as you sat at the 1995 d.c. at the infamous 1914 generation change announcement, was it "the final nail in the coffin of your wts beliefs or did you engage in mental gymnastics to try to assimilate the "fresh meat in due season" lol....... i was in such shock at this announcement, i think my mind just blanked out for 10 minutes followed by: "ok, this really is it for me......they have duped us all along", i then immediately started thinking of my 90 year old jw grandmother sitting in the stadium, and what must have been going through her mind......

"Have you kissed an apostate lately?" Perhaps an accompanying picture of the angel's butts playing trumpets from Monty Python and the Holy Grail would be appropriate as well.

by Mary innot sure if this was posted yet, but the boys in bethel are at it again.

Don't worry about it, just take it easy, and make the hard decision on your own time. You have a lot of time in which to decide in. Be patient and make the right choice for you.
