FOOL : a person who has been tricked or deceived into appearing or acting silly or stupid:
this young fool (who is probably a born-in ) is no older than 35 years of age.
i started attending meetings before he was even born.
little does he know that you and i and millions of others have listened to this same themed talk, ''what's the kingdom doing for us now,'' in 1972. .

Remember what Tony Morris said about his boys, in his interview, "they make US look good."
With my wife, Susan, and our sons, Paul and Jesse
Susan and I were blessed with two sons, Jesse and Paul. As they grew up, Jehovah was with them. (1 Sam. 3:19) Because they made the truth their own, they make Susan and me look good. They have continued to serve Jehovah because they have remembered their own first love for him. Each of them has been in full-time service for over 20 years. Also, I am proud of my two beautiful daughters-in-law, Stephanie and Racquel, whom I view as my own daughters. Both of my sons married spiritual women who love Jehovah God with all their heart and soul.—Eph. 6:6.

He states that by learning about the ''four horsemen'' in Revelation 6:1-15.... "You will see clear evidence that you an I are living in the last days.'' He goes on to ask, "When did the ''four horsemen" begin their ride? He answers..."1914"
This talk was probably given by Charles Crazed Russell in 1870s, Judge Slime Rutherfraud in the 1920s, and this young fool in 2018. And, I'm sure this same talk will be given many more decades from now.
Just like for-profit Corporations that strive to stay in business by any means, the WTBTS has been in business since the late 1870s.
How do you stay in business for so long: REPEAT AND RINSE. WAIT FOR MEMBERS TO LEAVE, DIE-OFF OR REMAIN IN, AND WAIT, AND WAIT, AND WAIT......... TAKE IN NEW MEMBERS AND REPEAT THE PROCESS.
this brother starts off with reading the following scriptures from the book of mark 13:1-8.
3 while he was sitting on the mount of olives across from the temple, peter, james, john, and andrew asked him privately, 4 “tell us, when will these things happen?
and what will be the sign when all these things are about to be accomplished?”.
I'm not a Bible scholar and my 40 years of learning false teachings and assumptions from the Watchtower Society took my thinking abilities away. Here are some questions I have:
How can one ''event'' have a two-fold prophecy and take 2000 years to come to a finality?
How can the destruction of a ''temple'' turn into the ''destruction of Armageddon''? How did Armageddon even get in the picture?
Did Jesus or any apostle writings ever mention an event such as ''Armageddon''?

An unbiased reading would place everything between verse 5 and verse 27 as something Jesus was predicting for (then) contemporary Jews.
Claiming that verses 5-27 must have a dual fulfillment is, in reality, an admission that they don't understand all of what Jesus was talking about.
After you read Mark 13 ( unbiased....after you leave the Watchtower Society mindset ) in full context, you finally begin to see how the Watchtower Society twists Mark 13:1-30.
Mark 13 was fulfilled (as you wrote): within Jesus's ''this generation,'' not as a dual fulfillment.
i’m just curious to hear other people’s input on different scriptures or quotes from the society or witnesses that are used out of context.
i’ve always found it funny when a scripture is quoted and applied to whatever point they’re trying to make, but where it was taken from in the bible passage has nothing to do with what they’re getting at..

5 Jesus told them, “Watch out that no one deceives you. 6 Many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he,’ and they will deceive many. 7 When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, don’t be alarmed; these things must take place, but it is not yet the end. 8 For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, and famines.[a] These are the beginning of birth pains.
the watchtower bible and tract society uses its governing body to force jehovah's witnesses to accept their flip-flop beliefs and doctrines.
their history of conflicting false teachings and practices have left members in confusion.. in this video, david splane blames jehovah god for all the changing doctrines.
"jehovah is driving the chariot.".
OMFG! What a bunch of gullible saps we were!
David Spane starts his (changing doctrine ) talk...."Our love for Jehovah and for the truth will move us to receive this information gladly and with open hearts."
Mr. Splane talks about ''how hard it is for brothers to keep up with Jehovah's celestial chariot( changing doctrines).'' ''So are the Governing Body. We're not driving the chariot.''
All the gullible saps laugh.
The flip-flops and changing doctrines are not coming from the Governing Body but from Jehovah God.
Here is a scripture that Mr. Splane forgot to read:

Spain artfully interchanges the words “generation” and “contemporaries”.

Yes..or kicking the can down the road!
If you kick the can down the road, you delay a decision in hopes that the problem or issue will go away or somebody else will make the decision later.
