    Very well written. I notice in one story you mentioned that Russel taught that 2520 years started from 607 when in fact he taught that it was 606bce that would have put the end of the gentile times at 1915. It was changed later I believe 1943 when they found out there is no zero year between 1bce and 1ad. As usual they couldn't even do simple math and had incorrectly come to 1914. They should have just been honest and changed it to 1915 when the mistake was shown but hey it's a cult and ww1 started in 1914 so they just changed the date to 607 almost 30 years after 1914.

    I knew that, but didn't really have space to go into it. Somewhere along the line I'll go into more detail about it.
