  Y'no...I am REALLY DISAPPOINTED IN YOU PEOPLE!

  SMDH!!!

  Haven't you guys learned anything about WT holy spirit and how it operates?

  Clearly what was meant by 'Millions now living will never die' was a reference to the living POTENTIAL sperm of those alive. So just like the overlapping generation the millions referred to was the unborn sperm and egg combo that was represented by those alive at that time. So a baby alive in whatever hell year it was carried with it potential millions alive so therefore by WT standards you have to add at least 30+ years to your calculations to be even close to being accurate.

  And to the WT boys reading this feel free to use that as new light lord knows ya'll need all the inspired help you can get.

  darth frosty, then it goes into the sperm of the people that the sperm created.

  What are your thoughts on this? ILTTATT

  Rutherford was not speaking to babies and therefore he was not talking about babies. He was speaking to and about people old enough to have definite religious beliefs.

  It's my understanding that Rutherford was misquoted.

  What he really said/meant was:

  "Millions Now Living Will Never Die . . .

  . . . . in Jehovah's Memory".

  

  Would this qualify as New Lite?

  Everyone is forgetting that "with God, ALL things are possible". I agree that current JW eschatology holds that ONLY JWs will survive Armageddon, but perhaps God could "SOFTEN" many hearts at the last-minute to allow all these elderly heathens to repent and become JWs to avoid destruction (AND fulfill the prophecy). After all, God could saw no moral problems with interfering with the unbeliever Pharoah's free will by HARDENING his heart (simply in order to have an excuse to put on a new magic show, featuring the "turn the staff into a snake" trick which he'd been teaching Moses to perform, and the part the Red Sea trick, etc). God can harden hearts, He surely can soften them, TOO!

  On the other hand, I suppose WITHOUT God, all things are possible, too, eg a caravan of camels COULD emerge from my backside orifice, which doesn't mean it is LIKELY or PROBABLE to happen, but it IS possible (although I don't think I'd survive the ordeal).

  DESIROUSOFCHANGE:

  "In Jehovah's memory". Hmm. You might have a point there!

  This could certainly qualify as a "new light" teaching and it makes perfect sense since the 1914 century anniversary is practically upon us.

  You can always reshape BULLSHIT.

  Its unpleasant but possible.

  In the future 1914, 1925 will be dropped by the WTS./JWS trust me.

  They will in time if the WTS sticks around long enough place a plate under the bull's ass for

  some new bullshit for the consuming public.

  More food at the proper time as they say.

  as he is a God of the living Mark 12:27 maybe it includes the dead.

  If you're going to assume anything, assume that millions now dead will never live. It's simpler and a hell of a lot more accurate.

  Granted at the time JWFACTs there were not millions of witnesses...Maybe Jah will convert them all in just a few days and bam....millions now living willl never die. You dont believe that? Me either.
