Man's accomplishments over the past 100 years (since 1914):
Cured and developed treatment for many diseases thru science, including leprosy
Developed many drought- and disease-resistant strains of crops, which allows for fighting World hunger
Development of atomic energy
Computers/electronic devices which allow long-range communication
Electric automobiles
etc, etc, etc.
And what has Jesus done since 1914? Wait a minute: I'm thinking....

Jesus Christ isn't much of anything to Jehovah's Witnesses other than a bait-and-switch scheme.
JW's aren't Jesus Witnesses, after all--and that is for a reason. Jehovah is mean-as-hell as was Judge Rutherford.
It is only natural the Judge would prefer a kick-ass deity over a namby-pamby like Jesus.
JW's have, uh hem, "sanctified" Jehovah's name by and large by bring reproach on it through false predictions.
Ask 100 people what Jehovah's Witnesses represent and you won't hear the name Jesus very often!
JW's don't like the sweet guy who healed as much as they prefer the Jesus-is-going-to-destroy version at Armageddon.
The Jesus who came (you can't see the bloke--he's invisible!) in 1914 has many, many accomplishment. Those accomplishments
are just like Jesus--invisible as well.

Where are all the apologists ? I guess their silence has answered the question loud and clear .

What has been accomplished since Jesus' death?
Believe in the lord Jesus and you will get saved?
Has anyone been saved? NO!. Every one since that time has died.
Saved by going to heaven? We have no proof of that so what good is it? What good is this belief in going to heaven anyway. (That's another topic)
One can be near Jesus, but one has no needs so what does that amount to?

I'll stand in and help the apologists. He has created a spiritual paradise, commonly known as the Watchtower Society, and filled it with the happiest and only loving group of people on earth.

I'm curious . . . what's the motivation behind these 'challenges'? Is it meant to offer another opportunity for a round of self-congratulation on how smart the ex-JW's are compared to JW's? Maybe it has a broader target, atheists vs. christians of all stripes? since it begs the question of what has he been doing since resurrected.

Jehovahs witnesses are no more Christian than
Richard Dawkins and the atheist.
