yes, but not in the bound volume edition. it speaks about the ministry being completed in the 20th century. Add this logic to Matt 24:14 and voila.
the crafty trouts changed it in the bound volume from 20th century to 'in our day'

Pity for Angel Eyes
by KW13 inwell, not just angel eyes but also for those like her.
i genuinely had no issue with her, and it seemed she was starting to realise just what the watchtower was, but backed out due to fear of the unknown.
'tis sad, she almost got her life back!.

i don't see whats so wrong with the word pity farkel. I think its appropriate for this context, because assuming she/he/ was genuine, i can identify with her/his situation, and feel sad that i or anyone else here for that matter cannot change their point of view despite our best efforts, and that this person will continue living only half their life, if that.
if i felt, by being a JW this person was a 'loser' than that means i have at some stage also been a loser.
noun
1. sympathetic or kindly sorrow evoked by the suffering, distress, or misfortune of another, often leading one to give relief or aid or to show mercy: to feel pity for astarving child. 2. a cause or reason for pity, sorrow, or regret: What a pity you could not go! –verb (used with object)
3. to feel pity or compassion for; be sorry for; commiserate with. –verb (used without object)
4. to have compassion; feel pity. —Idiom
5. have or take pity. to show mercy or compassion. Quite frankly, i do not care enough to discuss this further, but the above i feel defines how exactly i meant the word to be taken.

There is nothing wrong with copping a feel of some nipple, however feeling like one is a different story.

Help! Leaving the WT and realizing I'm a social misfit!
by 2pink inso, i'm 30-something and have been a lifelong jw, born and raised.
(yeah, i know double points against me on the social scale!).
i'm on my way out (and moving at a fast pace with that, lol) and um, am now realizing that outside of the kingdom hall, i am a bit of a social retard!

I have been there myself, and its not easy to deal with. You spend a lot of time trying to find your feet, hoping to engage in conversation and want to enjoy socialising with others. However, it is a skill that those who are raised outside the Witnesses take for granted.
It takes time, it will happen just don't be too hard on yourself.

ethical consequences of faking reinstatement...
by drew sagan ini know that there are enough of you out there who can add good points to this discussion, and i await your opinions.
however, please be aware that i wish for you to take great care in your posts.
i am not interested in haphazard responses.. so as to not give away too many details, i'll simply say that recent events have caused my in-laws to strongly desire my wife to fake a reinstatement.

You have posted here for a good while, and i've come to respect you and i hope that, for this post at least you will give careful consideration to what i have to say.
You're not behind the door, you and your wife both know what the Watchtower Society is and what a life under its reign has to offer which is nothing but grief. Quite simply, avoid the huge strains it will put on your marriage, because if the Society says jump and your wife fails to do so, her sister will be one of the first in the queue to say, i thought you were loyal to Jehovah and his Organization. Don't you think that your husband is a bad influence on you, weakening your faith? e.t.c
Your wife being open to the influences of that cult once more could potentially be catastrophic, for both of you. And if things don't go to plan, as you say she then risks losing what relationship she has with her parents too.
This is a convoluted form of blackmail. You run the risk of you both being subject to unreasonable demands.
As hard as it is, you and your wife need to make the most of the life you have, forget the Witnesses and their spin. Her sister is unwilling to make any kind of sacrifice, yet your wife must literally change everything about her liife for a conversation? this is not love.
