It's amazing how, when the Society
is CAUGHT IN A FALSE PROPHECY and CAN'T
fudge the data, like 1975, they fall back
on "WE'VE NEVER CLAIMED TO BE PERFECT!"
Yet, 20 years AFTER '75, they're having their rank-and-file tell
people that nothing
really definite was ever taught about the period of the mid-1970's. After all, there's lots of folks 25 and under who don't REMEMBER all the pavement-pounding Friends knocking on our doors
telling us, directly,
that the end was going to be within a couple of years! I remember it well, and I REACT when I hear that nonsense.
TOM has done a fantastic job of showing just HOW MUCH data these birds will "fudge" if they can get away with it. TOM has called their BLUFF and is to be commended.
And he's right: it's nothing new on their part.
I went through some of my old literature and highlighted the number of flat-out lies and historical impossibilities I found. My Lord,
my
books are now FULL of COLOR from being highlighted.
The one with the most LIE-DETECTING highlights,
is my old copy of that insane publication called
JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES IN THE DIVINE PURPOSE.
Thanks, Tom.
