  To summarize this talk:
  
  1.) Ties the end of this system with the 6,000th year of the seventh creative day.
  
  2.) Specifically tells members to not raise a family.
  
  3.) Specifically tells members not to waste time pursuing an education or career.
  
  4.) Uses so much doublespeak and fear-mongering it's hard to listen. I think I heard him repeatedly bang the podium with his hand when he really wanted to make a point.

  Thank you Undercover.
  
  In addition to your comments, I'd like to add the fact that Franz still links the 6,000th year of the six creative day with the end of this system. He just doesn't know when that will happen as the time between the creation of Adam, his naming the animals, and Eve is not specified in the Bible. Why is this important? It shows that 1975 *was* seen as the end of this system before this contingency plan about Eve is mentioned.
  
  Shame on Franz for telling people to not raise a family or go to college while the Society continues to acquire property and wealth.

  cabisalis, please expand on this. I downloaded this from a place which asserts this talk as proof the Society did not promote the year 1975 as the end of this system.
  
  Thank you for making it clickable. I hope to share more in the future.

  I've been accumulating a number of old WT publications. Golden Age, Rutherford and Russel books, even a large number of important district and convention talks. Every now and then I go looking for more. It's always difficult to find what I need. Then I browsed to www.freeminds.org and noticed a number of old publications for sale. = (
  
  Is anyone currently archiving public domain WT literature? If no one has the bandwidth, take a look at what Google is doing at http://books.google.com/books?hl=en
  
  We could ask Google to host these public domain works, and include them in their searchable database.

  Outlaw, with all due respect, how will this work?
  
  Unless consumption goes down or levels, the money will simply be redistributed.
