GREAT SONG DUDE....In the year 2525....I was not even born when it came out, but I LOVE 60's.
As for the topic I believe WT will run out of followers in the near future. Internet, education, are the negative factors that will drain WT. Just have a look at the internet and see how many ex-jw web sides exist.
On the other hand the leadership of the cult are trapped to their own past mistakes concerning chronology and they can't get way from it. So for an average JW the "generation" teaching has nothing to do with those JW's during the 80's(like me). At that time we had something solid to hold for the end of this world. Now in the year 2009 all they hear the end is close....
The alarm bell has really lost the meaning of the current JW's. I believe WT will have a slow fade out since they have NOTHING to give to the rank and file
peace
