The only valid reason to believe something is true is when there is sufficient evidence to support the claim.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.
The burden of proof to back up the assertion that a group of religious leaders were appointed by a supernatural being, second only to the Almighty Himself, would be astronomical. The evidence required would need to be of the highest order.
As things stand, Jehovah’s Witnesses lack valid arguments for the assertion that the Governing Body was ever appointed by Jesus. The best they have is extremely weak abductive reasoning which fails to demonstrate the claim.
Contrast the Governing Body with the examples of God’s appointed representatives found in the bible, all of whom had some kind of extraordinary supernatural verification for their divine appointment. There is not one example of a true representative who was not in direct communication with God or His son.
The claim that the Governing Body were appointed by Jesus is a baseless assertion motivated by mere wishful thinking.

The Last Days?
by ozziepost intoday's issue of time magazine bears the front cover headline "the last days of the taliban".. the urgency of these "last days" is re-inforced in the magazine's articles by the use of words such as "final reckoning", "last sanctuary", "rule unraveled for good", "endgame".. words and phrases such as these may seem familiar to regular readers of the watchtower magazine which regularly describes the present time as being the "last days" of this "system of things".. interestingly time describes the "last days of the taliban" as occurring just two months after the commencement of the "time of the end" for the taliban.. i wonder how many witnesses will give this some thought as they consider the watchtower's latest declaration of urgency for the last days of this system of things.
at what stage will these "last days" cease to be the last days?
can they last 100 years?

Thought I would resurrect this ancient thread to remind JWs on board how long we have been in the last part of the last day
This little gem from the Awake of 1967, May 22.
And this:
"Shortly, within our twentieth century, the "battle in the day of Jehovah" will begin against the modern antitype of Jerusalem, Christendom." The Nations Shall Know That I Am Jehovah p. 216
And this:
"Some of that "generation" could survive until the end of the century. But there are many indications that "the end" is much closer than that!" Watchtower 1984 Mar 1 pp.18-19
And this:
"He was laying a foundation for a work that would be completed in our 20th century". Watchtower 1989 Jan 1 p.12.

Is 1914 still a major belief in JW land ? Or has it been abandoned ?

What evidence convinces you that Christ became invisibly present in 1914?
Secondly, what evidence convinces you that Jesus selected Joseph Rutherford and the directors of the Watchtower Society to be his Faithful Slave in 1919?
Thirdly, what evidence convinces you that accepting these dates and the events alledged to have transpired on these dates is necessary for salvation or even to be a Christian?
