  1975 and 1981?

  by Steel in

  is it true that in 1975 the watchtower falsely predicted the end of the world and a great number of the membership quit and just a few years later they turned disassociation into disfellowshipping?

  L.H.G.,

  You couldn't have read all mom's posts or mine or you would have seen her death notice. I know I said I was going away, and I am for a while. But I can't leave this unanswered. Yes, I'm on mom's account. My name is Annie [Anastasia]. Mom went by Rachael, one of her 'middle' names. Mom was 41 when she died. She was an educator and writer. She was born in Reno when Grandpa was a professor at University of Nevada. Mom was Austrian-American. Dad was born in Inverness, Scotland. I was born in Washington State.

  The death notice on a blog she was co-owner of

  I turn 15 in March. My mom and her writing partner are/were the experts, not me. I have other things that are more interesting and more important than this place. There are fun people here, but there are also some who do not want to think or know what Witness history really is. Some here are cruel, and a very few are stupid.

  I am a Running Start student.That keeps me busy. I like real-life chatting at Starbucks far more than posting on this site.

  My mom had the thoughtful comments. I just say things, and some of them, probably most of them are what mom would label nonsense.

  I miss my mom. I want her back. Posting here is not a substitute for life. I'll come back and tell you when mom's book is published.

  Neat Dog, Listener, Thanks for your kind words.

  Someone is following me around this site and giving me a thumps down no matter what I write. Perhaps it is time for me to leave. Consider me gone.

  No, in details. The Watchtower does not believe in "the end of the world." They believe in a restored earthly paradise and the destruction of the wicked. Did they say it would happen in 1875? Yes. They still distinguish between disfellowshipping and disassociation. But they treat both parties the same. So the answer to your question is, with different phrasing, you have it right.

  I'm not sure why my initial post merited a thumbs down, but one cannot please everyone.

  Sorry Blondie. I hit the down button by mistake. I tried to fix it, but apparently I cannot. .... Ignore the whole thing. It appears to be fixed now.
