George Francis was born in June 1896. That means he was 18 years old when Jesus returned "invisibly" in 1914. He was 22 when Judge Rutherford first gave the lecture titled "Millions Now Living Will Never Die." He was 24 when the Watchtower Society published the famous booklet of the same name and began the heralded "Millions campaign."
Yes, "millions now living" are all dead!
The "millions now living" generation is dead...
...long live Satan...
I remember how we still hung on to the 1914 generation well into the 90's. I remember pointing out the fact that Vaso Cubrilovic (After World War II, Vaso Cubrilovic served as Minister of Forests in Yugoslavia's government. He died in 1990, the last surviving participant in the conspiracy to assassinate the Archduke. - wikopedia) was still alive as being proof we were still in the 1914 generation.
Too bad Freddie Franz wasn't around. He could easily come up with some crap about an antitypical Jesus returning in an antitypical 1914 and an antitypical generation of indeterminate length.
There are 16 people from the "1914 Generation" on the cover of this Watchtower magazine from 1984.
1984 was about 25 years ago!
It would be interesting to know how many of them are still around.
What further proof is needed to show that The Watchtower's promises are empty?
holy crap olin...what if wt is still right about the gen of 1914 not dying off?.........from wikipedia.............oompa
Current incidence
The United States currently has the greatest number of centenarians in the world, numbering over 55,000 in the year 2005. The U.S. number is partly a function of America's large population in 1890-1905, and an increased emphasis on long-term care facilities.
and japan is second with 30k
Give it another 10 years, oompa.
None of them will be alive and then you can safely say that the Filthy and Dirty Slavers were wrong.
