She never said that. Her study of prophecies and astrology,
and contact with the Masters made her conclude that April
1990 was a very dangerous time for the world. Dangerous, not
the end. Years later we heard that in that month India and
Pakistan were almost at each other's throat again and the
USA and Russia were on high alert. Luckily nothing happened.
"End time" mentality has indeed crept into the organization
through certain fearful individuals. Meanwhile they also act
as if they will be around for a long long time and its new
president has taken a hard look at the 'organizational
culture' and is implementing a very effective and creative
plan to change the whole organization.

I did not know they were into national defense issues.
Though I can imagine that whatever might promote their cause
they will use it, as is done by the other side of the
debate.

Before I can have that pleasure I hope to be able to lure
them away from their guns by inviting them to come and read
together the SD. I know this will work, for they are very
interested in literature promoting the superiority of the
the Aryans.

O.k, if they did not like my little reading circle and
started pulling out their guns, I do not know what I would
do, but theoratically I will be in favor of shooting first.
How I would feel afterwards I do not know either, but it
might be pretty miserable. How did Washington feel after the
last battle against the British? Or Eisenhower when the
Allies finally beat the Nazi's? At home the people had a big
party, but many soldiers came back deeply traumatized or not
at all. Freedom comes with a price pacifists don't want to
pay.

You have enriched my vocabulary again with "fruit loop."
Only the meaning is missing. Fill me in again, Kym.
