  only have a few minutes to spare so thought i would throw this together.. been in for about 30 years.

  questions and doubts gathered over that time.

  i have a keen interest in the legal and financial matters of the watchtower.. came across this site about 5 years ago.

  Surprise ! Surprise ! 2015 Arrives and NO Armageddon or World's " End " - Go Figure

  by flipper in

  i guess 99.9 % of ex-jw's here could have predicted as much .

  armageddon didn't happen in 1914. it didn't happen in 1925. it didn't happen in 1975. and it did not happen in 2014. since the wt society first predicted a world's end when their organization started in 1879 - 126 years have passed which according to any dictionary in any human language 126 years comprises of 4 separate generations each totaling 30 years each.

  plus 6 years into a 5th generation.

  I'm going to play the "Devils advocate" here".

  This will feed the JW's persecution complex and i'm sure the WTS and their platoon of lawyers will be on to this one.

  The point is why are they excluded from JW meeting? If they were Catholic or any other religon would they be excluded from attending that church and why?

  We all know what a messed up mind controling cult it is but most religons are.

  Saddly (I'm from NZ) i think this will be overturned and as i said the WTS will have their lawyers on to this streight away as they don't want this to be a precedence.

  To go to the high court in NZ is expensive and the WTS may drag it out and run the father out of money.
