I would probably say just a vauge mention of it in the kool aid edition of the watchtowers. Just the same dried up drivel that we have been reading about for years and years. Some new light or some sort of new revelation.
How Will the Society React to the Hundred Year Anniversary of 1914?

I think they will ignore it.
If it gets mentioned, well" we are just that much closer to the new system."

Instead of saying the "last of last days" as many CO's of late have said; they will say the "precipice of the end", and it's time to re-evaluate your sense of urgency because the end is closer than ever. When you stop and think about it you really gotta give them props for keeping this con game going for almost a century, they must have taken notes from the Catholic church.

Yes, and If they keep re-overlapping with the overlappers they will get to 2114. Then at that point they will have to call it the Overcrappers.

"Don't buy any green bananas with the money you'll never make from "higher education", because the end of an "overlapping generation" is closer than the inside of your pants!"
I think that line should earn me a spot as a CO!

They won't bat an eyelid. They'll just trundle on as though it makes no difference. There might be an article talking about how 100 years since 1914 is really no big deal, but I doubt it will even be a study article.
After all, think what happened post 1975? They just swept it all under the rug, and by the time they issued something remotely resembling an apology, years had already gone by. It may be a new Governing Body since those days, but they will have learnt the "head in the sand" routine from their forebears.
I believe 1914 will continue to be flogged until 2034. They have already laid the groundwork.

"how happifying it should be to all true Christians that we are already 100 years into Christ's millenial reign with just 900 yrs to go. . ."
That word is making me twitch.
