  Well careful literally it's a meaningless sentence. In terms of the cult I think it means don't leave the 'truth' the paradise is coming soon!

  JW-org-Facts-resources is an interesting Facebook page that I've started to follow. If Nathan's link doesn't work for you which it didn't for me just search the words I've used above and it comes up easily.

  Nathan seems genuine and many of his posts are very good especially the picture memes.

  I honestly don't think he intends to be sensationalist, he just comes across as a little intense, possibly because of the way his elderly mother has been treated by the cult.

  Skin thanks.

  So if I said to a relative or a JW at a cart in my town, the problem I have with your teachings now is overlapping generations would they just see it as an apostate phrase?

  Seeing as their whole body of teachings that they even preached publicly for 80 years hung on the slim thread of the paradise coming in one generation from WWI, I would like to be able to use it in some way.

  Thank you so much Lets Think! I was just thinking about that quote from Plato but I couldn't remember how to find it. From the Republic isn't it? The more things change the more they stay the same eh?

  Did they say that road to nowhere? I'm not surprised! My JW sister hasn't had a working TV for over thirty years, I don't know if she looks at news online. Ignorance is bliss.

  She would have told them she has JW relatives (who have nothing to do with her) but they basically shoved a leaflet at her and left. Of all the things they could have highlighted in the world, cheeky children. Lame. They obviously know nothing of the world outside their little religion.
