My mind is so filled with these unscriptural fanciful conjectures! I cant get them out of my head and they make me miserable and crazy. And I have no one to talk with about them but you all. No one out there in the world has the patience to put up with an exJW's misery! The amount of useless crap that was drilled into our heads is huge!
If it helps you any, I've called the WT on any number of occasions with feigned panic in my voice.
"Watchtower"--singsong voice answers phone
"IS THIS ARMAGEDDON YET?" --me, faking panic (usually after something has happened, like a tsunami etc)
"Um....let me transfer you to the Service Department...."
"Service Department"
"YOU GOTTA TELL ME IF THIS IS ARMAGEDDON" --by now I'm laughing and have to put the phone on mute
"Um.....are you a Jehovah's Witness......"
"I USED TO BE BUT I STOPPED MY STUDY....OH MY GOD WHAT IF THIS IS IT?!?!?!?! HOW WILL I KNOW IF IT IS ARMAGEDDON....."
"Well sister, calm down...do you have your Revalation, Grand Climax book at hand?" (no shit)
"NO I DON'T AND NOW I'M REALLY AFRAID OF GETTING KILLED JUST BECAUSE I STOPPED MY STUDY!!!!!"
"Well let us review some scriptures with you...." Then they go into how no man knows the day or hour, but it must be ANY DAY NOW, and they share with me that I KNOW I'M supposed to be attending meetings and progressing towards baptism.....blah blah blah.....they drone on and on...
When I've had enough, I just usually say something like, "I gotta go, MONTEL WILLIAMS is coming on." and I hang up.
LOL.
Hey if they don't mind interrupting people's lives with their mindless drivel, I don't mind interrupting theirs.
But what I wouldn't give to be a fly on the wall after that call.....

You might's well have fun with it Class
