How soon is soon?
by Sour Grapes ini guess if the jdubs have no clue how long a generation is they also wouldn't know how long a time period the word "soon" refers too.. 60 years ago my mother would hammer into my brain how soon the great tribulation was.
soon jehovah would destroy the wicked.
then a few years later there was no need to go to college because the end was so soon.

We need more for doing less. Send your money to Jehovah....he needs it bad. The costs of running the universe is going up every year.

I think imminent is way sooner than soon.

jwfacts...what is even sadder is how today's "yung wans" don't have any knowledge about the Watchtower's failed prophecies so Armageddon for them being soon now has a new starting date.

I knew that when my JDub wife came home from the meeting what she would say. The Watchtower Company are pros at making their workers feel guilty. She said that she needs to put more money in the contribution box to help pay for the fine videos that they see at the Kingdon Haul.

My mom was a JDub for 60 years and she beat into my brain as an eight-year-old kid that the end is right around the corner. Soon God would show the nations who is boss.
A year before she died in her mid-eighties, I mentioned my childhood and how she said the end was soon. Her answer was, "Well just think how much sooner it is now compared to 60 years ago."
You can not reason with JDubs. Their brain cells have been destroyed by the Watchtower cocaine.

The next time I see the cart babysitters
by Sour Grapes inthe next time i see the jdubs standing or sitting by their carts sipping their coffee lattes or updating their facebook pages, i am going to approach them with the following thought process acting as an interested person.. do jw's believe the end is near?.
do you consider your preaching work to be urgent?.
why do you just let people walk by if their very lives are at stake?

I like how the cart sitters will work in shifts. It is like a job...get our one hour of service then let's go get some coffee. We can leave a tract on the table and keep our time punched in.

How long is the time period for soon? If you have to work late and you call your wife to let her know that you will be home soon, when will she expect you to be home? In hours, weeks, months, years, or decades?
If you are driving to see relatives in another state and the children in the backseat get restless and ask, "How much longer until we get there?" Of course, the answer is "soon." Hold on kiddies, in Watchtower Land lingo you could be on one hell of a long drive.
If you are single and you find the love of your life, then later you propose to the person. You proudly announce to the parents, "We are getting married soon." What time frame is in their mind?
You are in the car driving a long distance and your wife tells you that she needs to stop and use the restroom soon, how much time are you going to give her?
I was going to write down how the dictionary defines the word soon; however, everyone reading this already knows. Now if I knew that the Gibbering Booty would read this then I would have done that since they don't seem to know how soon is soon.
The saddest thing is that JDub children today are saying how soon the end is. Only in God's Organization could grandparents, parents, and children die during a single time period of soon.

My last Memorial
by Sour Grapes ini missed my first memorial last year in 60 years.

i would pull in with my wife and there are 5 brothers giving directions on where and how to park my car.

I missed my first Memorial last year in 60 years. It always amazed me on this special night that the JW's forget how to park their cars in the parking lot. I would pull in with my wife and there are 5 brothers giving directions on where and how to park my car. For God's sake, the parking spaces are marked and the cars are parked no differently than the other 364 days of the year.
I walked inside and you can tell which JW's have Bible students there because they have the biggest smiles and wear these individuals like badges of honor. Look what I have accomplished and look who I have with me. They have bragging rights. They are not introduced as this is Mrs. Jane Doe but rather this is my Bible student. Then there were the ragtag visitors in blue jeans and t-shirts. I kept thinking what on God's green earth would make these people want to come to the KH one night out of the year? Of course, there was the love bombing that you only get until you get baptized. I could tell that those who were getting bombed enjoyed the attention.
The talk was the same as last year. "We are here to observe the Memorial of Christ death but you will not be partaking of the emblems." Jesus said to keep doing this in remembrance of me. When Jesus gave his instructions in the first century, all that heard his words drank the wine and ate the bread even though they were not yet anointed with holy spirit. That would not happen later until Pentecost.
So the emblems are passed like in some sacred ritual. You could hear a pin drop as one by one everyone in the Kingdom Haul rejects the blood and body of Jesus. Even children 5 years old, under the watchful eye of their parents, have the opportunity to reject the Son of God.
Then there was the funny and awkward dance of the emblem servers as some sat down putting the emblems on the table, then some stood up to get the emblems to serve the servers to make sure that everyone gets to firmly reject Jesus with a shaking of their head and their oh so solemn expression on their faces. Then, of course, the speaker also gets to reject Jesus but he usually shakes his head with a big no before the server gets to close to him.
I am so thankful that I will never go to another meeting and sit through the sadness of rejecting Jesus.

It certainly appears that worldly people don't give a rats ass about the JDubs and their cart sitting. We exdubs are the ones that care the most about the Watchtower's Companies activity. I guess the reasons for this is because they stole our childhood, took away a higher education, isolated us from our nonJdub relatives, and gave us false hopes and dreams.
