It is age discrimination, why punish a 81 year old more than an 18 year old? or 17 versus 71?

How Often is 1914 Openly Spoken of at the Meetings?
by Number 6 inas someone who left in 1991 aged 21, one of my overriding memories of growing up in the watchtower was being able to "prove" the end times by referencing 1914.. major change in 95 then again after that.
if i'm being honest i could not even tell you now what the current teaching is.. for those who still attend the meetings, is it still openly spoken about?
i genuinely curious as i wonder if the teaching will be altogher dropped eventually, and one of the easiest ways to achieve that is to stop speaking about it.

certainly not in the after the program clique banter. The last thing, for true believers is to be reminded that it is all a chimera.
1014 ? the only date where anything, but the wrong thing happened, the others:
1918 : campaign " ---millions now living will never die"
1919: appointment of wt as F& DS
1925: Abraham, Moses & co moving into California wt mansion.
1975: beginning of 1000 Year Reich
2000: end of ~ biblical normal human lifespan of ~75 years (threescore or/and ten averaged out). since 1914.
2075: end of overlapping of 2 centenarians ( 2 x 100 minus 20 years overlaps each). since 1914, F.Franz the middleman's death in 19192. .
No, midweek meetings are the same text repeated 3 times for the last months:
"The dead know nothing at all" . the death scare, disguised as practise for "good news" field service.

REVISITING Awake October 1968 and the "THIS GENERATION" in association with OVERLAPPING GENERATION and THESE GENERATIONS
by Longlivetherenegades inthe former image was obtained from a topic in the humor and joke section of this platform and it seems to carry a underground information that is equally powerful.. since a food company had been producing a particular product for four generations since 1914, how come the wtbts publishing company are still producing for a one generation since 1914?.
awake october 1968 stated............ even if we presume that youngsters 15 years of age would be perceptive enough to realize the import of what happened in 1914, it would still make the youngest of "this generation" nearly 70 years old today(year 1968).
so the great majority of the generation to which jesus was referring has already passed away in death.

The irony is, that naturally overlapping generations have exponential growths.
wt's partakers' count fits that pattern too, contrary to all expectations for these final of the last days.

Rev11:18 non religious fulfilment

religions have trotted out the deluge, Tower of Babel as precedents, that never really happened.
But humankind survived to today, because of real past cataclysms such as
the distinction of the dinosaurs done by external forces, asteroid strikes or from exploding stars. so, looking strictly at the sciences,
Hope that the shrew[d], minimal offenders will survive again.

White don’t make you right.
SB. right, but looking at the African birth rate, there are fewer male virgins there than in Europe. You can perhaps squeeze >6 overlapping generations there into the last 100 years.

And remember, Jesus said that the end of this wicked world would come before that generation passed away in death. This, of itself, tells us --
Here is where wt really lost it, about survival at Armageddon, their big promise, because :
The generation is now officially the wt anointed (I think pictured above). Apart from the "overlapping partaker group" bible twisting,
wt's current new light is, that partakers will pass away before the end occurs, not that the end occurs before their passing away.
Think about that: wt is contradicting Jesus on survival.
Jesus: gen, will die after "all these things"
wt: will pass away before Armageddon (at the beginning of the Great Tribulation). so:
wt Prophecy about survival at Armageddon is wrong already, before we even have to wait for it to roll around , perhaps in 2075.

Not just the dairy firms. How about the elder makers? Appointing their sons, need-greaters as Overseers? under 23 years old?
I would love to do take on one or two local specimen in a "sptitual", bible based discussion. so:
do the math: ~ 1930 to 2020 = 90: 4 =~ 23.
As a starter, I would remind that wt appointee, that I could be his great -great grand father.
4 generations of sheep shearers, goat cheese makers since 1914.
then i would proceed to make mince meat in that debate.

by Room 215 intoday's article prods active jws to participate in the effort to reactivate us backsliders.. unfortunately, it fails to prepare the participants to adequately address the real reasons so many have left and want nothing frtherethan to be left alone: the un and child abuse scandals, prophetic failures; dumbed-down, increasingly specious and simplistic verbiage in literature and talks, the cult of personality and unwarranted veneration of those 8 singularly unremarkable members of the gb, etc., etc..

replying in German.
WTW: Zurueckkommen? verueckt !. Uebung in Betruegung
we are not lost sheep, we are like Joseph, driven out.
N: yeah, the majority jws, now called upon to bring back the strays, are coming , like Josephs's brothers, with empty bags. , well almost, because what spiritual nourishment do they offer ?, the overlapping group/anointed generation of 1914?
basically: love bombing, re-indoctrination instructions.

We are not lost sheep, but eagles that escaped from the cage.
Help us? bring it on, we give flying lessons Isaiah 40: 31. or;
we are not lost sheep, we are like Joseph, driven out.
Jws do not know how badly they are in need of help. yet
