same here. the stark contrast is the hyped up video and live demonstration of field service, Unrealistic, no sane house holder would put up with this, after years of the artificial theater like this, not one service related growth experience, gross.

cheap phones for his one and two year olds to watch cartoons in the car.
with self driving cars here, in this new world (without wt blessing), the driver will be abls to join them in the screen play. . what a waste of good time, that could be used living your own life.
Even on a boring 10hour flight, you could take in the endlessly changing world from a window seat, looking at the planet from a new perspective. rather staring at the screen in front of you, but just mho.

Applying the prophesy to the "anointed," the present "this generation" teaching conforms to such definition. Fisherman
here is another reason why the anointed generation does not conform to the prophecy of Jesus at all:
Math 24. :22. " In fact, unless these days would be cut short, no flesh would be saved; but on account of the chosen [anointed] [sealed] ones, those days will be cut short." smell the fishy here?
The anointed flesh will not, should never be saved. It can not inherit the heavenly kingdom. wt teaches now, that the last partakers' bodies will be disposed of by angels, like they did with Jesus'. It is the OSheep's flesh that has to be saved.
wt wrong on all counts. particularly where it counts, doctrine.

Calling Cofty and others regarding evolution
by dubstepped inso i have started down the path of trying to understand evolution, and to get the linear lies that the jws planted in my head out of it.
i bought an audiobook called "evolution: what the fossils say and why it matters" by donald prothero.
i heard it recommended on an atheist podcast that i listened to.

The thought that all of this beautiful, productive life which covers the Planet just came into existence without an extremely intelligent guiding hand is incomprehensible. Old Navy:
Unless the originator of the process is so advanced, that the initial setup guaranteed that the function, and ingredients will automatically bring results, good, bad and whatever. without any further fiddelling.

The current midweek "book" study of the two impossible ladies, one a certified virgin, the other beyond menopause and both pregnant. leaves some speechless, gives you pause to think.

Actually the chart isn't too far off, there is a third group of anointed, that co-incide with your third group in position except they're not - yet - part of "this generation". Ds:
Living contemporaneously with the partakers are of course a whole slew of humans. some past 117 years and counting. Only past 2055 will wt have to look for new recruits to overlap the 2 nd group that are slated to live to 2075, as of current wt teachings.

Perhaps, because most GB, F&DS members are so unfamiliar with procreation, motherhood, successions of generations, that they fell in to the anointed generation overlapping since 1914. trap?
Anointed generation is wrong because it contradicts Jesus defining their timeline,
Overlapping generation is wrong because it defies the meaning, the root of the word's usage, in the bible even.
The 2 witness rule is vindicated, Anointed overlapping generation wrong on all 2 minimum counts.
David, back to the drawing board please, to draw different conclusions.

applying the prophesy to the "anointed," the present "this generation" teaching conforms to such definition. Fisherman:
The "anointed" generation is totally wrong, at least in the second fulfillment of wt's imagination.The first century listeners of Jesus words might have survived the end and lived to see the post-Jerusalem, post temple era. They died only after all these things occurred, but
In the future charted by wt/Splane, the anointed generation is slated to be terminated short of the end. A total disconnect from Jesus' words, and an impossible antitype to the type lived out by the early church.
David blew it, and he must realize that be now. hopefully.

deist here, but was confronted with the existence of a beyond physics presence. strong belief in a creator, that needs not to further tinker in his work, that will work itself out now on it's own.

It is still a valid definition, nonetheless.
no, it is not Fisherman,
it is invalidated by Jesus' words:
This generation will not pass away until all these things have occurred.
the charts show that the generation of anointed will pass away. short of the beginning of the end.
who is right here, Jesus? , or David Splane, the spokesman? they can not both be valid.
