I'm still in shock that they printed an article basically saying its time to celebrate 100 years of Jesus doing nothing.

Damned if they do, damned if they don't.
Perhaps they figure if they address the 100 years, it will minimize the sting of ridiculers.

Same ol' spin. Trying to turn a negative into a positive. Summary:
"See, Jesus has been incredibly busy these last 100 years. His work has all been restricted to heaven and organizational procedures/developments/conventions that nobody but us remembers - nothing relating to the world at large, like, the Gentile nations are still running the show, an' all, but not really. Anyway, the end is very soon - momentous times - the generation of two overlapping groups and the terrible world conditions prove it - never have things gotten so bad as they are now - it really, really sucks and anyone who denies how awful it all is is blinded by Satan. So you young 'uns, get baptized and get working for the Org. Jehovah, although we're not going to dictate your life or anything, like what job to get or who to marry (honest *snicker*), as long as you're on our treadmill reaching out for a fulfilling, happy, spiritual career. Whoopee! 100 years! Not long now - we mean it. You noticed our year text, right? Well, there you are. Chin up."
