23The Gentile times have ended; their kings have had their day.
by Londo111 indear jw,.
on october 2, 1914a hundred years ago todaycharles t. russell announced, the gentile times have ended; their kings have had their day.
for almost 40 years, among other predictions for that year, 1914 had been looked to as the end of armageddon, false religion, and all governments, and the beginning of paradise on earth and the resurrection.

Interview of a born in like myself: "So 3rdgen, how did you learn the truth?" "Well my first memory was as a toddler being beaten mercilessly with a belt because I wiggled at the KH. That taught me proper fear. At the age of 6 I became an unbaptized publisher after being shown the lovely picture in the Paradise book about what happens to bad little girls who aren't JW. The doll, the bicycle, and the puppy falling into the abyss really reached my heart. Then when my family disinherited and shunned my older brother for simply not getting baptized, I knew it was the truth and made my dedication at the age of 12."

So when the service meeting starts replacing special needs parts with How I came to know the Truth, how are they going to handle the fact that most everyone is a born in except the mentally impared? I can see it now "So sister Nutjob how did you learn the troof? "Well, when i was a professional belly dancer I always wondered if God cared about me. When brother Slacker and his buddies came in for a lapdance they convinced me that they REALLY cared and so did God. Yada yada. Some of that story is actually true and the kookie sister comments about her "interesting past " a lot!

Come with me, back to the 1980s--you know want to.
by FlyingHighNow ini don't know about ya'll, but i did not appreciate the 1980s enough.
i was too busy lamenting how different they were from the 1960s and 1970s to bask in and appreciate how wonderful they were.. this is 80s music, especially new wave music, and 80s fashion and culture appreciation thread.
what did you love about the 80s?

I hope Mellencamp is as wonderful now as he was in the 80's so you can enjoy him as much as I did. I saw Bob Dillon in the late 80's and was so disappointed. He was REALLY bad and I was such a fan-oh well, can't win 'em all!

Did it bother you that they taught, "miss a meeting and you'll fall away?"
by Wasanelder Once inhow many times did we hear that if we dont attend meetings we will leave the truth because satan will get ahold of us?
that always bothered me.
i thought, "if my faith isn't able to stand alone what good is it?

Yes I hated it, not realizing it was often true. One cong I was in was especially fanatical about meeting attendance. I was not allowed to aux pioneer b/c I occasionally missed meetings. I had preschool children who were often sick and a DFed husband at the time. The elder who veto'd my pio request? None other than my own uncle. Encouraging huh? Missing meetings not only interupts the indoctrination but also it's how a person is TREATED when they miss that helps one to wake up.

I was in my 30's that decade. Married 13 yrs in 82 and had my first child. Lost twins in 83 and had another child in 84. Tried to be the best little Jdub mommy so my loving god wouldn't destroy my babies-ugh! did see some fab concerts though. Tom Petty, Blonde, Forigner, Journey, Hall and Oats, Men at Work, Stray Cats, Ktrina and the Waves, Timbuck3 (the Future's so Bright I Gotta wear Shades) Bad Company, Huey Lewis and the News, John (Couger) Mellencamp, Even saw a few country stars, Hank williams JR,(the only lousy performance in the bunch) The Judds,(hubby nicknamed them the jugs) and Reba Macintire (sic) I have thick naturally curly hair so in the 80's it was so big I looked like a Texas pagent queen! Haha! Can't post pics 'cause were still in fade mode but hoping someday.

Watchtower Takes in $2 Million Conditional Loan and Won't Return the Loan, Is it True?
by BucketShopBill ini heard several stories of the watchtower taking in loans and donations given by rich witnesses who have fallen on to hard times and asked for the money back and the watchtower won't return the money.
have you ever heard of the watchtower only paying the money back on "conditional loans" once legal experts get invovled?
one of the stories that is around is a family donated a large chunk of their nest-egg to the watchtower and the husband got sick and the branch refused to contact him when he asked for his conditional donation back, would the watchtower screw people out of their money?

If you have elderly parent/s who are devout JW be aware that they may think they are "loaning" their money to the WTBT$ when instead they are giving them their children/grandchildren's inheritance. Be smarter than I was, find out what your parents are doing. They might not tell you otherwise.
