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.
i left the jw organization last year during summer.
maybe some of you can relate.
who of you are agnostic or an atheist?
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.

It is still a valid definition, nonetheless. Fisherman.
If you consider all the assertions of David Splane in the original chart presentation valid, prepare yourself for possibly celebrating the centennial of 1975 in 2075 in this old system. In just one overlap of anointed gheezers.

Suppose people started doing that all over the Forum? Fm:
For one thing, people would be not bored, but paying attention, Even GB members take stabs at that. Feel sorry for David Splane though, never seen or heard him seriously attempting, or succeeding to use humour as a teaching tool. At least on this topic he is given a chance, whether he likes it or not.
i'm noticing what seems to be a higher incidence of the above among the local jws than in the "general" (read: worldly) population.
i don't say this lightly, my wanderings around the fringes of jw society locally is revealing an alarming trend here.
the poverty doesn't help (there are good jobs, but you need a degree or qualifications to get one).. anyone else see this?
hoarding would be a natural for a doomsday cult. sophisticated survival preparations another thing. I did not see a sign of that in the bunker bonkers video. As a joke it is always good to say, "we'll keep that for the great tribulation ha ha.

Fisherman, sometimes it is hard to decide whether to cry or laugh. Is there any significance to the classification, as long people read, have fun, rejuvenate their synapses?

some of the wt beliefs are obviously jokes. who would have thought that two types like Franz and his latter day twin would take us to a 2075 Armageddon date? seriously, that is funny! and also stated wt doctrine, prophecy!
