    Why not just agree with your dub relatives that earthquakes do seem to getting worse, then ask; "Why does Jehovah choose to drown thousands of innocent people in filthy churning tsunamis? Why herald the even greater slaughter of Armageddon in this cruel and sadistic way?"

    the dubs are going crazy with joy at the thought of the 1000's being killed and having their lives destoryed by the earthquake/ tunsmai [sic]

    Bullshit. Most dubs are NOT that heartless. They will of course be excited at the prospect of their long hoped for New System being imminent but I honestly can't recall a single JW I ever knew who would feel joyful 'at the thought of the 1000's being killed and having their lives destoryed by [an] earthquake or tsunami'.

    On the evening of April 14th 1615, A strong earthquake struck

    Sir Lanka, unleashing widespread damage and casualties.

    200 houses collapsed, 2000 persons killed.

    When did the last days begain.

    At our hall the dubs will say how sad these disasters are and

    how many inocent people die. However they turn around and

    look forward to God killing everone on earth except the JW's.

    In looking at the terrible destruction in the pics from Japan

    what a mess they have to clean up and they will have the help

    of foreign nations. Imagine the whole earth looking like that

    after Armageddon and about 2 million men and 2 million women

    and 3 million kids having to clean the mess up.

    They need to read the May 1, 2011 Watchtower:

    1.EARTHQUAKES

    “There will be great earthquakes.”—LUKE 21:11.

    Winnie, 16months old, is pulled from the rubble in Haiti. A TV crew reporting on the disaster had heard her faint moans. She survives the earthquake, but her parents do not.

    WHAT DO THE FACTS SHOW? When a magnitude 7.0 earthquake struck Haiti in January 2010, more than 300,000 people were killed. An additional 1.3 million were rendered homeless in an instant. Although extreme, the quake in Haiti was not an isolated event. At least 18major earthquakes occurred earth wide between April 2009 and April 2010.

    WHAT IS A COMMON OBJECTION? We are not experiencing more earthquakes; because of modern technology, we are just more aware of them than people were in the past.

    IS THAT OBJECTION VALID? Consider this fact: The Bible does not emphasize the number of earthquakes during the last days. However, it does say that “great earthquakes” will occur “in one place after another,” making them one of the notable features of this momentous period of history.—Mark 13:8; Luke 21:11.

    WHAT DO YOU THINK? Are we seeing great earthquakes, just as the Bible foretold? Earthquakes alone may not seem to be conclusive evidence that we are living in the last days. Yet, they are only one prophecy that is being ful?lled.

    Sorry WTS. and all you dumb GB WT writing editors, great earthquakes have been occurring for millions of years.

    One thing thats a certainty is the WTS. doesn't put forth honest and informative information how earthquakes have been occurring

    for millions of years on this planet, creating some of the most prominent mountain ranges throughout the world.

    I guess its just a decisive matter of putting out information that only backs their END TIMES proclamations, in this instance keeping

    people in a state of fearful ignorance has a posturing value attached. ( Literature Publishing ) $$$

    the wt did, however, claim that the number of eartquakes was increasing for many decades. A good source is the "earthquakes" heading on jwfacts.

    Their retraction was so well hidden that many jws atill believe it. My visitors did.

    I would say something like:

    Oh yes this earthquake is just terrible. And Jesus did say there were going to be earthquakes. But the Society has always said THE thing to look out for as THE sign that the great tribulation is upon us is................... The governments turning on religion............I don't see that happening.
