1995 generation change
by Gorb innow, many years later, i remember the 1995 generation change, very well.. since early youth, hearing my father explaining in field service the 2520 years.
it was his main theme in the field.. with the change my doubts started.
with some jw friends we did not trust the organization anymore.

Regardless of what the WT / JW`s claim about how long a generation is we have the Bible account ?
What do you believe the bible ? or the Jehovah`s Witness/Watchtower religion.
When speaking about the destruction of the temple in Jerusalem ,he said it would occur in this generation ,and when Jesus would have said this was of course before he died ,and less than 40 years later the temple in Jerusalem was destroyed .
A generation according to Jesus was approx. 50 years give or take a few years in length that is borne out by other Bible verses regarding a generation.
Jehovah`s Witnesses /GB ,came up with an overlapping generation to explain away their failed prophecy regarding 1914.
simple as that.

In the beginning, God created heaven and earth. I couldn't get past that.
If that`s all he created I wonder who else created the universe ? After all heaven only relates to the expanse above the earth and doesn`t reach out into space .
The universe encompasses our Solar system , galaxy `s, and countless other Galaxy`s .

GB / Wives ,wont voluntarily give up their lifestyle
by smiddy3 injust an observation viewing some of their on camera appearances , and their arrogance believing they are the only one`s used by god to reach and teach the people ,despite what gj said at the arc on the subject.. no doubt the gb men wear designer tailor made suits from the best tailors in nys ?
and their wives adequately provided for in a similar way ?
nothing from kmart or target ,walmart or whatever.. shoes are probably made from form fit cobblers to fit the individual ?

Shoes are probably made from form fit cobblers to fit the individual ? and again the wives would be similarly looked after .
I don`t know if they wear gold chains around their necks but it wouldn`t surprise me.
I`d like to be a fly on the wall and see what jewelry their wives wear at social functions.
Designer watches ? for sure ,expensive one`s too ,his and hers ?
Rings, pinkies and otherwise for him and her ,came out of the finest jewelers ,you bet your life .
First class accommodation they live in , laundry, all looked after by staff as is all of their meals being provided for them .
Medical and dental expenses all taken care of for GB men and their wives Aged care facilities if needed.No doubt funeral expenses also.
Travel expenses all paid for anywhere in the world where they can visit and give talks with their wives tagging along as well of course .
They are only human and need relaxation time ,time to chill out and enjoy some wholesome entertainment on a weekly basis ,like taking in a Broadway show or two ,VIP seats of course ,only the best for Jehovah`s true servants on earth, EH ?
OH ,and don`t forget the top shelf Whiskey that the men enjoy and I bet their wives have just as expensive taste in the finest champagnes and wines on offer.
All of the above, is just IMHO
If the Apostle Paul can write down his own opinions, and it ends up as GODS word in the Bible ,who knows where my opinions will end up ?

If you think Watchtower is disappearing any time soon…
by Reservations inyou are sadly mistaken.. i hear people say it on here all the time, and dare i say his name *cough* lloyd evans *cough* has said it a number of times, that watchtower is running scared and watchtower is in decline….. we need to put in perspective the decrease from the 2020 report.
if we calculate a yearly -0.6 decrease over a 10 year period from 2020 figures it leaves us the grand total number of witnesses of:.
by 2030: - 7,933,479. by 2040: - 7,471,357. by 2050: - 7,036,154. i agree that this is a significant decrease, but let’s not kid ourselves, the wt organisation will still be alive and well even with an annual 0.6% loss.

When I first was studying to be a JW I was told that this "old system" has only about 5 more years left to run.
And that was way back in 1960.
Of course way back then in 1969? the "Life Everlasting" book? regurgitated the 6000 years BS and the expectations arose about the end coming in 1975.
