    It not nice to talk about the death of someone, but realisticly Ray Franz will die sometime.What will happen to the books he's written will anyone take over the publishing?

    Also do you think the society will use his death as a opportunity to attack his claims , when he can no longer defend them?

    Sleepy, I don't think Ray would have overlooked this kind of thing, besides it must be a 'going concern' so I'm sure it would be a viable business, even if it doesn't rake in millions.

    I know there are mixed thoughts here about a 'mass exodus' but people have always left the borg (as we are a testomony) and will continue to do so from all reaches of the Tower.

    I am sure his publishing company will continue to promote and sell his books when he dies.

    I dont think the Society will use his death as a opportunity to attack his claims. The Society never directly attacks the claims of apostates. Although Ray Franz books are of great significance, I think the Society is more afraid for the apostate material found on the internet. Its easier to find info on the web than buying a book.

    I was under the impression that Franz does most of the work himself and doesn't make much money, I cant see many big buisnesses wanting to take up his books, theres not a very big market for them .

    Well ... his breathing stops, his heart stops, and he becomes just as he was before he was conceived -- NONEXISTANT.

    Does that answer your down-to-earth question?

    What happens when all the members of the current "anointed" Governing Body, the "faithful and discreet slave" dies ? Will it be the end of this system of things? Will Armageddon finally come? Will the Great Tribulation finally begin?

    Yes, they probably will.... But what about the few remaining old-timers who all believed that the "remnant" would never die, that they would go to heaven to be with jesus and to govern the earth after Armageddon?

    They say that you're only supposed to say good of the dead. On that happy day, I will say:

    "Franz is dead? Good."

    I'm sure there will be plenty of younger generation of the "anointed".
