so proud of this counter that i made!.
very simple yet shows the estimated amount of people that are living that are from the generation of 1914, defined as "all the people who were alive, even just barely being born, when ww1 started".. here's what i assumed:.
10% of the 1.7 billion people alive in 1914 were infants, just children.
Hi Steve,
So, the more pertinent and telling question is - by JWs own past reckoning - how many people who were ages 13 to 16 at the time the War broke out are still alive?None. Absolutely none. There are three periods that the "generation" teaching mentioned:
10 or above at the time WWI started - 6 left
Had been born when WWI started - look at the counter to see an estimate of how many are left.

LOL! Don´t give them ideas! hahahaha

Actually, not "a minute or two" but around 15-20 mins. But it works!

Here's what I assumed:
10% of the 1.7 billion people alive in 1914 were infants, just children. This means that we start with 170 million babies born in 1914. This is a fairly high number but let's give the witnesses a wide margin.
1% of those 170 million made it to January 1st, 2014, that is 1.7 million people.
People after 100 die at 50% rates per year... so that by January 1st, 2015, there would have been 800 thousand or so.
As of right now, it is at 56,817.

i´ve come up with a partial list (i am only in 1 kings) of the many reasons and ways to die in the bible.maybe, when i am in revelation, i am going to share the full list.
how many do you think i´ll end up having??
number.
157: Being induced to commit suicide by setting the room you are in on fire.
i'm not asking this question to cause an argument or accuse, but i am honestly just wondering?
for those of you who are now atheist or non-christian, how did you come to this decision?
i hadn't given this much thought until about a year ago.
I came to that conclusion after knowing the two following things:
1) The Bible is false.
2) Evolution is true.
To know that the Bible is false, you can read things like http://www.1001biblecontradictions.com/ or https://skepticsannotatedbible.com/
To know that Evolution is true, I would strongly recommend Cofty´s series of posts on it, they are brilliant, and also reading this book: https://www.amazon.com/Why-Evolution-True-Jerry-Coyne/dp/0143116649
Once you combine those two things, we are left with a tiny gap: Maybe there was a Creator that formed the first life, and then allowed it to evolve? But that gap is so tiny that it can easily be bridged and you can go ahead and just become atheist.
Because there are so many amazing things that are true and that are very complex that, once the first life started, came about via evolution and natural selection... so if all that can come from natural processes, then it is highly likely that the very first life also came from natural processes.

is it the first of april already?.
This is in a Portuguese speaking country, possibly Brazil.
it is so amazing that the end of wwi was signed exactly 100 years ago!
and in just a few more hours, at 11:00am on 11 november 2018, paris time, the combat actually stopped!
(the war wasn´t officially over until 1919).it is such a historic moment, for the entire world, but also for jw´s, and for exjw´s.for almost the entire length of the war, the witnesses thought that the war was the prelude to armageddon.
Hi DoC, depending on the definition of the generation, which has changed quite a bit:
1960's definition: "everyone who was 15 years or older when ww1 started", they're all dead.
1981 definition: "everyone who was 10 years or older when ww1 started", there's only 6 people left alive.
1983 definition: "everyone who was alive when ww1 started", there are potentially over a million people in this definition. They die pretty darn quickly, however, and in just 6 years we will be looking at only around 1000 people left (2024), and by 2034, barring nearly a miracle, all will be dead.
"overlapping generation definition": who knows but potentially it could include millions of JW's, so they bought themselves at least 50 years.
Of course, at the end of the day, it's all garbage.
i was searching through the net and i came across something i was not expecting to see.
i just found out that my cousin passed away at the age of 34, in 2014, and no one even bothered to tell me this news.

!!! You didn´t know of his passing for 4 years?!?!?!?
Wow... that´s pretty harsh if the witnesses were involved in not telling you this. So sorry for your loss.

In January 15, 1918, just months before the war´s end, they mentioned it, I believe, for the last time: The war would lead to Armageddon. They didn´t quite say it like that in this case, but if you read between the lines, that ´s what they said:
