thank you all, just replaying the David Splane video chart, wt will be able to claim that they warned the r&f that a 2075 begin of the 1000 year kingdom was their teaching.
You have to accept current wt teaching to be a jw in good standing. We paid workers had to that pledge,
Message of judgement? wt gambling to boost their image by riding the wave of tension in the world, making themselves appear relevant?
If the life that is clinging to the thin layer on the surface of this globe means anything to a possible creator, he would act out of necessity.

end? shorn, milked and bilked while still alive.
Remember Abel could not eat mutton, but kept sheep, and the carrion was for either fertilizer or sacrifice,

Speaking of the 144,000...................

...........why would an all-powerful christ, whom the bible describes as having been given "all authority", need 144,000 other king/priests as "helpers" to run his universal organization?

(matthew 28:18) .

1 corinthians 15:25 - "for he [not 144,000] must rule as king until god has put all enemies under his feet.".

"...They ignore the fact Almighty does need the help of humans to restore what has been lost.
Venus, what was lost exactly,?

If he lives as long as F Franz did
Thank you, and please listen Listener, David Splane admitted there can be longer serving anointed, being younger in 1914, not 21 like Franz, dying later than a mere 98, and younger, longer living, second group anointed overlappers too. Also,
The generation is not comprised of GB members only , but are any and all of the "sealed" remnant. so: 2075 looms large.
Anyone has the age of current local partakers?

It would take 25 times more energy to go 100 instead of 20. wt would like that, no energy left to ask intelligent questions. and
that one wire spoke , with the nut at the top, representing the true religion, invisible at that whirr.

let me correct myself, a reborn overlapping Franz would be 45 years old today. , with ~ 53 years to go.
Placing it back into the original's lifespan: today would be equivalent to 1939! -- 56 year left to the 1975 beginning of the millennium. now: 57 years to 2075. disprove it, or swallow hard.

My jaw dropping OMG moment at the end of the convention

yes folks.

over the past few days i can honestly say the convention was relatively quite good.

most of the talks, videos, symposiums were in line with scripture if you have faith in the bible.

Crazyguy: of course they screwed themselves with all those past teachings, but we do not have to go back to 600 BC, the twisted the Pretzel these last decades, in front of all. and it matters, because their authority stands or falls with veracity.
They changed the Jesus generation time from " not passing away" to " passing away"

even mentions the generation and refers to brother Splanes very good explanation and diagram --"
UtC: according to that diagram, the overlapper similar or older that F. Franz would now be < 39 years old. doing the math:
Franz died in 1992 , age ~98. "serving" 78 years in the anointed generation since 1914, starting < 20 years since his birth. A similar partaker, , aged 20 years at Frederik's death, born in 1978 would be 39 years old now. living out his life, with improvements would bring us to 2075. David put that proviso in his talk, allowing for older anointed overlapping whether they like it or not.
The standard, no fake partaker, serious anointed like Franz is now 39 or less years old. and Jesus said that
"the tribulation will be cut short to save some flesh." No anointed flesh will be saved, they will be gone at the onset of the GT. axed. (Rev 20 ) . to leave the GC to be the generation after all. and these can overlap naturally, unlike the Freddies of this world.

Anyone interested in their ashes on the moon?

for only $12,500.00 your ashes can be put on the moon or $5,000 for a burial in low-earth orbit, where a travel-shampoo-size urn can spin for years at 17,000 mph until it gradually descends into the white-hot re-entry atmosphere.they hope to have a cemetery on the moon complete with plots and ceremonial adornments..just think every time it's a full moon you look up in the sky and you will always see you love one.

a thought, you are resurrected on the moon.....

It would be closer to the Pleiades then 6 feet under.
