  I could only watch part of the first one.

  To win a Darwin Award you have to actually die in the process of doing something incredibly stupid, thereby removing yourself from the gene pool. Most of these people will probably reproduce.

  Madness in the pages of the very first Golden Age. The date? Oct 1, 1919

  i was doing some research in the very first issue of golden age (forerunner to awake!

  ), published october 1, 1919, and couldn't believe what madness was contained on some of its pages.. for example, i can't believe i missed this clipping when i was researching my article on racism in early watchtower literature a year ago..... .

  segregation of black children is basically praised as "wise" and "probably an advantage to all concerned.

  That proves they're not spouting God's wisdom if their wisdom doesn't transcend the prejudices of the day.

  even as an elder, i had doubts as to this being "the one true religion".

  i personally had chosen 2014 as one of those "make or break" dates.

  fortunately, i left years ago.

  I had my big "I'm fed up" moment in 1995 when they started fooling around with the understanding of "generation." I was in a car heading out in service and reading the "noo lite" in the WT. I said, "We're going to see 2000 in this system, aren't we?" I saw it as maneuvering on the part of the Society, and if they needed to maneuver it couldn't be the truth.

  That started the ball rolling.

  Oubliette - You are a poet! Great art comes from great pain. Maybe you could channel your pain into poetry.

  Hugs to you, my friend. Join the awakened crowd. You can be a prince here, too.
