"Revelation 16:16 calls it the "war of the great day of God the Almighty," Armageddon. This war will come in the twentieth century. It will come right on schedule...This generation will see its fulfillment." - AWAKE Feb, 22, 1961 pg 8. That prediction can't be any clearer. IT WAS A LIE! The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society fooling the gullible since July 1879. (Rattigan included)

The org's "new lights" - corrupting Proverbs 4:18
by BoogerMan inproverbs 4:18 says, "but the path of the righteous....grows brighter and brighter until full daylight.".
the bible "light" doesn't get brighter - it never changes - it's a person's direction & course of life which gets brighter.. w11 9/15 p. 14 par.
15 - "when spiritual light on some matter gets brighter, do you try to understand the underlying scriptural reasons for the adjustment?

Would you be able to survive a three day Assembly?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inthe last assembly i attended was over 10 years ago.
the monotone speakers, boring talks, uncomfortable seats, long prayers and nodding off after the lunch break did me in.
i survived the morning sessions, but the afternoon sessions were brutal.

Balaamsass2...was that the 1969 PEACE ON EARTH 8 day assembly held at Dodger Stadium? I was there as a 14 year old boy with my family and single, dyed in the wool, God intoxicated, religious fanatic mother. We went to Disneyland, too! The ONLY thing I remember about the assembly itself was day 5 and the drama about immorality and young boys not learning to jerk off alone or with friends. Through the whole thing my mother kept sneaking looks at me to see my reaction to the drama. Many of us sure had a fucked up childhood growing up in this mess.

This video is great! I stand by my contention that the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses is made up of : FAKERS, FOOLS, FRAUDS AND FUCK-UPS. It has always been this way and hence shall always be this way.

"FYI, it is not a false prophesy because it was not a prophecy." - Rattigan350
Find a copy of WATCH TOWER PUBLICATIONS INDEX 1930-1960. Turn to page 202. There you will find the heading 1914. Go to subheading Kingdom's establishment and under that heading you will find the subsection : prophecies pointing to event. You may read to your hearts content the information cited by going to the website JW-Wayback(dot)org. Indeed the Governing Body DOES consider the year 1914 as being based on Bible prophecy and as I showed you in my previous post they feel that they are the "faithful and discreet slave" to whom Jehovah reveals prophecy as it is unfolding. Twist yourself into a mental pretzel and do linguistic gymnastics all you want to continue to defend the lies of the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses. Just don't expect others to accept your viewpoint in the face of what the facts are.

For the edification of Rattigan350:
"Jehovah as the great Interpreter makes known the meaning of his revelations in his due time, and speculation by men cannot bring to light the true meaning of prophecy before time. Jehovah has provided a channel, the "faithful and discreet slave" class, who are given spiritual "food at the proper time", and this spiritual food includes among other things the understanding of the prophecies in the course of their fulfillment. -The Watchtower April 15, 1952 pg 253 paragraph 19
"Whom has God actually used as his prophet? By the historical facts of the case Christendom is beaten back in defeat. Jehovah's witnesses are deeply grateful today that the plain facts show that God has been pleased to use them. ... It has been because Jehovah thrust out his hand of power and touched their lips and put his words in their mouth. - The Watchtower January 15, 1959 pgs 40-40 paragraph 13 & 14
"Armageddon. This war will come in the 20th century. It will come right on schedule..." - AWAKE February 22, 1961 pg 8 paragraph 2
No amount of mental gymnastics or abuse of language can hide the actual strident, forthright and dogmatic claims the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses has made over the years. The LIES are in print for all to read if they care to investigate. The Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses is made up of FAKERS, FOOLS, FRAUDS and FUCK-UPS. Thus has it always been and thus shall it always be.

Where is Tony?
by Athanasius inon february 22, 2023, anthony morris iii was officially removed from the governing body of jehovah's witnesses.
a few months later it was revealed that the watchtower bought him a house in lumberton, north carolina.. however, and correct me if i am wrong, since leaving the gb nobody has reported seeing tony attending jw meetings or participating in field service.
in fact nobody has reported seeing him anywhere, not even at a local liquor store.

Armageddon Car
by OnTheWayOut inhow many of you bought a nice sedan, suv, or even a minivan back in the days that you described as your "armageddon car" that you would care for and it would last until the end arrived?.
i was driving a 1974 plymouth volare wagon in 1992 when i managed to get an 8-year old buick century.
it was low mileage and had a very luxurious interior.

An Armageddon car was a thing back in the day...sad but true. Every single car my family had since the late 1950's was an Armageddon car. My mother finally wised up in her '60's and bought herself a convertible because she had always wanted one. However, she remained a devout Witness. An ex-Hippie that I met back in 1976 after my return from Bethel had an old 2 door Ford Falcon that he had fixed up and dubbed his Armageddon car. He moved back to Maine to bring 'the good news' to his family and to try to save them from the coming destruction. Not one person in his family became a Witness and his Falcon is long gone to the junk heap. At 73 he has had more cars than I can count.
