As r51785 said, I think that my world will end when I'll die. If I'm lucky, it will be in 60 year(I'm 21 years old) and if I'm very lucky, it will be in 70 year. Also, I read something interesting here: http://www.abhota.info/end1.htm ca. 2800 BC According to Isaac Asimov's Book of Facts (1979), an Assyrian clay tablet dating to approximately 2800 BC was unearthed bearing the words "Our earth is degenerate in these latter days. There are signs that the world is speedily coming to an end. Bribery and corruption are common." This is one of the earliest examples of the perception of moral decay in society being interpreted as a sign of the imminent end. So, the JW aren't the first to predict the end of the world.

I think that the 'last resort' oftem refer to suicide like in the song of Paparoach...
-this is my last resort suffication no breathing
-dont give a fuck if i cut my arm bleeding
-do you even care if i die bleeding
-Would it be wrong, would it be right
-If I took my life tonight, chances are that I might
-Mutilation out of sight and I'm contemplating suicide -

Odd coincidence between me and JWs...
by brianhenke ini have found out an odd coincidence between me and the witnesses... .
i was born on july 30, 1965. exactly seven years earlier - july 30, 1958 - 7,136 men and women were baptized into the jws (the borg had not been named - yet.

Watchtower: december 15th 2003 = 2034, Armageddon?
by Nicolas ini read the french version of this watchtower edition and it was clearly suggested that the end might be in 2034... do you have any comment about it?

It wasn't clearly subjected at all but, as usual, they used their twisted words... Tour de Garde du 15 Décembre 2003 Extraits: "§ 6 : "Aux jours de Noé, Jéhovah a déclaré " Mon esprit n'agira pas envers l'homme indéfiniment, puisqu'il est également chair. Aussi ses jours se monteront-ils à cent vint ans." ( Genèse 6:3) Ce decret divin émis en 2490 avant notre ère à marqué le commencement de la fin pour le monde impie. Songez à ce qu'il signifiait : plus que 120 ans et Jéhovah allait amener" un déluge d'eau sur la terre, pour ravager de dessous les cieux toute chair dans laquelle la force de vie est en action" - Genèse 6:17 § 7 (...) Et nous ? Voilà près de 90 ans, depuis 1914 , que nous vivons les derniers jours de ce système de choses."

There is no way I would return to an organization like this even if it's cleaner than the Watchtower. I'm now on this life on my own and I don't need anyone to tell me what to do!

Does the average witness still believe in Armageddon?
by czarofmischief ini havent' been to kingdom hall in over a year, and i haven't talked to any dubs other than my parents for three years now.
i was wondering if anybody still had any contacts in the truth and how the average dub is feeling about the immediacy of armageddon?.
i remember growing up that this was an omnipresent motivation, especially when the whole "peace and security" thing happened in the early nineties, and we were expecting "sudden destruction" after the collapse of the soviet union.. but safe to say, i'm not worried about armageddon anymore - and i was wondering what the feeling was in the congregations.... czar

They think it is near, especially since the terrorist attack of september 2001 because they argue that in the past, we wanted peace but now, we also want security from all the bad terrorist in the world.
