now that i'm free to bet, i figured it would be neat to start a pool on when the watchtower is going to change light bulbs on the prophecy about the united nations turning on worldwide religion.

there is no doubt in my mind that this prediction will be dropped.

not only is this the longest-running unchanged prediction in the wt's history (1925 and 1975 had much shorter gestations) it's the last detailed concrete prediction the society has left in its bag of tricks.

Was the WTS correct?

based on current events, do you think the wts could be at least partially correct on their prediction about organized religion being banned by many governments or even some future un mandate?

what about the western governments (us, britain, france, germany etc)?

think it could or even may happen?

" An accurate picture can only be obtained by lucid observation and clarity of thought based on a view made as broad as possible by contact with as much data as possible from as many sources as possible."

I really like that...keeping it in my file of quotes.

Personally I think there will be attempts at banning it, but don't see how it could be enforced. What is needed is education and religion could end up banning itself. The problem is ignorance. Ignorance isn't the same thing as uneducated. Ignorance is a choice. How many of you have watched the 1hr video "The Naked Truth"? Anyone with the slightest desire to educate their self can't watch it without experiencing an epiphany. If you haven't seen it you owe it to yourself to spend an hour of your time to see it. It's available all over the web for free.

What about the western governments (US, Britain, France, Germany etc)? Think it could or even may happen? After all, religion is at the root of 99% of all the current military conflict. What would you do if you were in charge?
