  I'm confused

  i'm confused.

  why does one return from an apostafest feeling encouraged and happy, maybe even hopeful, but returns from an assembly feeling discouraged and worthless?

  being the paranoid, inactive, with alot of family and "friends" still in the org.

  i'm sure it's been discussed before but i don't recall reading on that topic here on jwd.

  i know that fear prevented me from posting while i was exiting as an elder.

  Will we see the GB replace 1914 with a new date in the next 30 years?

  ray franz mentioned in crisis of conscience that in 1980 schroeder, klein, and suiter proposed changing the start of "this generation" from 1914 to 1957. as the "this generation" doctrine has since mysteriously morphed any date associated with it is moot.

  however, as time marches on without the developments anticipated by the gb may they again pick a new year, this time for the invisible enthronement of christ, in an attempt to buy time and regain credibility?

  what dates or historical events would be likely choices?

  did you refrain from obtaining a degree or advanced studies when you had the chance because it wasn't the witness thing to do?

  how has this affected your life?

  Apocalypses: Prophecies, Cults, and Millenial Beliefs Through the Ages

  this book by eugen weber is very important.

  it dedicates only two or three paragraphs to j.w.s.

  for that very reason it's a good read for those who are undecided.
