    Like others have said, 2014 and the following proceeding years will be insignificant for the majority of the JWS, it may present

    some internal doubts for some but most JWS will just be like good dotting followers and swallow the next portion of " meat in due season ".

    The January article shows that the WTS. is attempting to wash itself clean from the past but still trying to retain the imposing power and control

    of which it previously acquired. Never under estimate what direction a religious organization like will venture into, they have

    in the past changed the names and titles of its two main pieces of literature such as the Watchtower and Awake magazines .

    well...they are making a big enough deal out of preaching in Korea for the past 100 years that they put it on the official website and distribute a special four page tract! yippee.

    http://www.jw.org/en/news/by-region/asia/south-korea/jehovahs-witnesses-100-years-south-korea/

    can't wait till they spin one hundred years after 1914 into something positive...move the finish line and runners get tired. keep moving it and they get pissed. make it 100 YEARS and people just don't care anymore. "The End" ya say...great! At least something happened!

    Blood moon on Memorial 2015

    2015 marks the end of 40 years of wandering in the wilderness after they were ready to enter the New World in 1975

    There is always a new story that can be cooked up.

    Some stories are eerily seductive.

    Say it isn't so painful to tell me that you're dissatisfied (with 1914).

    Last time I asked you I really got a lame excuse (a new generation you said)

    I know that you lied.

    Now wicked things can happen...you see em goin down in war.

    But when you play in a quiet way that bites it even more.

    DOC,

    It seems as if the JW's incoherent views about the "end" are kept simple so that there is plenty of room to wiggle out if they have to.

    You can disprove their favorite interpretations in an elevator trip.

    Just get them talking and keep asking What do you mean and how do you know that.
