The yellow "My Book of Bible Stories" was always in colour. (1978)
I believe you're confusing it with the prior book, the salmon coloured, "From Paradise Lost to Paradise Regained." That publication didn't have any colour photos. (1958)

Google will NOT be his friend once his daughters are old enough to really comprehend and see what for a perverted, slimy, clown he is. He'll be demoted from "Father" to merely "sperm donour".

Ha! That is nothing knew. Just ask Keith Cassernova. His "New Boy" series/book details out exactly what they expect you to say/do after being "sent out to the Field Work" (AKA: given the boot) from "God's House."
Keith was told the same thing. Only talk positively about Bet-HELL to ensure that young people aspire to want to go there and work as slaves. It's really something how these heartless grifters operate.

I have to agree that most thought being a Bethelite was "For Life", or at least thru to the "New System of Things."
In fact, even in the 80's I recall the push was to forgo any sort of education and make Pioneering in order to get into a Bethel a priority. It was seen as kind of a meal ticket to Paradise. Once you were "in", you were set! Out of the wicked world and safe in "God's House."
After the multiple rounds of Bethel lay-offs in the past 25 years, you'd have to be a complete MORON to think that you'd be able to be a "lifer" now. It's plain as day that they use people up in their prime, then kick them to curb as they age but before they become a liability.
What a shameless, cruel, money-grubbing CULT!

I was born in 1979, so I'm technically Generation X.
I can confirm that our "Generation" is def the 1st to really wake up and leave en masse. It's no exaggeration to state that out of the people my age I grew up with in the religion 9 out of 10 (90%) left, and have NEVER come back. Some are even grandparents now, and so it's literally 2 "generations" removed from the JW's.
In the mid-90's, we saw the game was up. Now I can't point to just one red flag. But in hindsight, the extreme fear in the 1980's of "any day now the Great Tribulation is going to break out", evaporated. A few things caused this to happen. In 1989, the Berlin Wall fell. 1991, the USSR dissolved. These were truly shocking events for people my age. Combine this with grunge and the fact that we actually made it to high school, then GRADUATED......when all the while growing up we were basically told that we wouldn't even MAKE IT TO high school, much less graduate or have to get a job. So this really shook a lot of us Awake! The 1995 generation mast-head change wasn't even shocking to us, because by 1995, we were 16 and starting to work after school, so we weren't even paying attention to those changes. Hell, I didn't even know about that until 1999-2000, when I started searching Yahoo! with my questions and doubts and scales totally fell from my eyes. 9/11 - Truly a game changer. My reaction was, "My Gawd, if this doesn't usher in the UN attempting to ban religion and cause WW3 and the Great Tribulation, nothing will." The long Afghanistan War aside, 9/11 came and went just as all previous wars and no "End" in sight. This was probably the final nail in the coffin and sealed the deal on WatchTower's previous century of constant fear-mongering my "Generation." Enough was enough, and we were then totally out of there. Not only that, but were out of there AND resentful about a childhood lost and stolen to a man-made end-times apocolyptic CULT!
Today? Youth search and ask AI about everything. Nothing WatchTower has done or is doing will EVER be hidden again. The jig is up. Any 5 minute scan of the JW's reveals their dubious, weird, psycho history and high-control cult BS. Just like Scientology, their hey-day is now in the past. VERY much in the past. No amount of "lightening the reins" or serving up "baby food" is going to change that. Like I said....I know several grandparents my age who left in the 90's, and then raised their kids outside the JW's, and now their kids have kids.....never even been exposed to the JW's except to hear warnings against joining up with them.
Checkmate, WatchTower.

I'm confused! Stephen Lett in a 2020 JW Broadcast claimed that we are in:
"The final part of the last days of the final part of the final part before the last day of last day!"

Lett-the-Clown wouldn't be confused, or simply fear-mongering by pulling this shit out of his big red clown ass, now would he??? Hmmmm?

Jehovah's Witnesses came by today.
by 3rdgen inthis morning i was in our front yard sitting down pulling weeds when i saw 3 people slowly walking on the sidewalk in my direction.
2 of them were young, handsome, clean shaven, wearing nice crisp white shirts and perfectly tailored black slacks.
they could have been mormons except.... there was a 60ish portly woman wearing a frumpy dress and ugly sandals.

What a "happifying" experience! Can we all not see the wisdom in 3rdgen's handling of this poor, gluttonous, WatchTower drone? (((( insert seal clapping hear ))))
