    No the next video will be "How to stick your head up your ass". Its a lie. Anyone can explain a lie. Even proving the lie can be done. Just use more lies. BUt if one keeps pushing and digging, soon or later, you will find the lie.

    Obviously this is not for the householders, rather its for JWs. If you question its validity to anyone or the Elders they have a nice little video to explain it.

    The only poeple in the territory that bring up 1914 are x-JWs, religious big wigs (preachers, priests, ect.) and people that really hate the JWs.

    The question: "Does that make sense?" is realling asking: 'Are you reasonably smart?'.

    It essentially forces the house holder to say YES every time...

    Wow!

    Bringing this back up instead of letting it die with all of the information available on the net, tells me that the GB is [more] _____________ than I have previously given them credit for.

    A) Dumber

    B) Deluded

    C) Evil

    Maybe a combination of all three?

    "A moron explaining nonsense to a nitwit".

    A classic line..... At the hall where I was, it was done locally by a prepared demo. Actually the dub who did the demo is pretty good and could at least have made it sound credible to the ignorant, if left to his own devices. This demo though was tightly scripted and was a complete nonsense! It just made something already incredible to the thinking person, an utter shambles.

    The thrust of it is that "Ooh, this is so complicated , we have to address it slowly" It is like they are explaining brain surgery , which it isn't. The demo went half way with it then he said that "this is enough for now, I'll come back next week and continue".

    Sister (Uber-dub) Blues was steaming and said that she could explain it in five minutes off the top of her head. She could too. It would not fly with the thinking person or knowledgable, but would at least simplify it , which I thought was the art of teaching

    NB The latest public Wt has an article and graphics about how to explain it. Our demo followed this pattern: part one

    I am hopeful more JWs will wake up due to this video, if they try and get JWs to imitate the condecending examples with householders, JWs will kick against it and feel uncmfortable. Most JWs know you can't talk to the public like that, it's only the odd few pioneer elders who think they have a mensa IQ that dare talk to house holders as if they're three yrs old.

    No 70 years then.............

    I find the WTS is using the subjective signs of the end more than numbers. Most jws found that easier to accept and does not require any math. But then if you consider the black plague compared to the flu of 1920..........the plague was worse.

    Have earthquakes really increased since 1914

    Have wars really increased?

    Thanks for the report.

    Excellent! It's as inept as I hoped. It should really bother people who have two working brain cells.

    For any JWs just starting to think about these matters:

    Well, unfortunately....

    Here is, virtually verbatim, the intro the speaker gave:

    "Friends, it's nice to read about history, it's even better to be a part of history. The body of elders received a letter explaining that for this part in the service meeting, instead of a demonstration given by local brothers, we're going to watch a video of the demonstration that comes from the Society. This is the first time we've had a video demonstration as part of a meeting."

    Yes, he considered this "event" as "history-making".

    Key dates in world history:

    46 BC: Julius Caesar assassinated

    1066 AD: William the Conqueror subdues England

    1492 AD: Columbus discovers the new world

    1789 AD: The French Revolution

    2014 AD: A video is shown of a moron explaining nonsense to a nitwit

    Yeah, I can buy it.....
