Can Jehovah's Witnesses explain the overlapping generation?
by pistolpete ini found this interesting topic on the current views among jws regarding the overlapping generation.. the posts are hilarious.
how do most jehovah's witnesses explain the overlapping generation?.
i've asked a couple of jws to explain the overlapping generation and they directed me to the website jw------org.. either they don't know, or they do know but don't want to discuss it because they know it's bogus and embarrassing.. either way, surely they must know that this just extended the last days another 80 years from the time fred franz died.

The average jw couldn't explain how the WTS arrived at the date 1914. This is just the same, they can't explain overlapping generations, because it can't be and make sense.

I was reading an article on how motels/hotels are so short-handed regarding cleaning staff, that rooms may only be cleaned every other day during a stay. Wow, staying in hotels etc may be different this time around; and I never was one to stay in an unknown jw's home. This will be interesting. I live near a local KH and it was busy as they got every thing back in order. I wonder if zoomlike meetings will be mostly a thing of the past, and handled like they used to do with phone hookups?

I took the initiative and wrote him a letter, yes, a letter, explaining how his book had confirmed my concerns about WT teachings. He wrote back right away with a 3-page letter. I mentioned that I was going by where he and Cynthia when we went to FL. He invited us to come to dinner and spend some time visiting. It became an annual thing. He and his wife, Cynthia, were so cute as a couple, had funny things to talk about in their lives as jws and what their new life was like. Ray would take me into his office and we would talk about "serious" things and his doings, and my husband would visit with Cynthia in the kitchen. I met many ex-jws, current jws (yes indeed) and ex-jws that become part of another Christian group. All able to talk and respect each other, but no proselytizing. I was so sad when Ray was injured and died and Cynthia followed shortly after that. I wish everyone could have seen Ray and his photo albums of his life and Cynthia together. I am so glad that his books are still in print, and still have good info that can benefit all jws (who read them) and ex-jws.

Now that some of the GB members are older, how involved do these helpers get? How much input or control over input do they have?

I lived in an area where 3/4 of the people were Mormons. Many tried to "convert" me, I even went to a public screening of a movie about their beliefs. It was like watching a science fiction movie. They were always kind to me and invited me to their home. One family had 20 children, the first 4 adopted until they were able to have their own children (having children is important because it gives spirits in heaven a chance to come down to earth and be tested). They took me around and showed me how they organized their family so everyone had someone to look out for. The oldest were assigned one of the younger ones, and the middle kids were on their own. They did not play in their bedrooms, but had a large play room with toys, books, etc., for everyone to play with. But when play was over, everything was picked up and put away. They had 3 washing machines and 3 dryers, going almost constantly. No one sat around, everyone helped with meals, setting and clearing table, helping prepare food, or watching over the young ones. Even I had to help making freshly churned butter (they had a large dairy farm). No pressure at all, just friendly. I know that this is not the case with every LDS, but this was 47 years ago. But I felt their ideas were even more bizarre than the WTS and that is saying a lot.

Thanks, Atlantis. I don't have as much time as in the past to post, part of me wishes there were "highlights" of this or Cliff Notes. Thanks for all your hard work for us and others.
