My theory is that it had to do with the influx of heavy drug users. Which would have been about that time.

where have the demons gone?
by aboveusonlysky indoes anybody remember some of the sensational demon stories jw's would tell back in the day?
i was a kid in the early 80's and i remember a few times hearing of people having real life encounters with demons.
for example, one sister claimed that before she became a jdub she would regularly talk to demons and they would even fix stuff like her washing machine!

by bobld inwas a man made date when jesus came and that a generation is not 102 plus years.. why not say something like this.when the disciples asked jesus for a sign and the end of the age.jesus gave them a composite sign and said all these things will take place.when-before the people now living(at the end of the age which no one knows)have all died..

They have already moved it to the 90s with the new overlapping generation teaching. My guess is they will soon be referring to a single generation that started in the 90s.
I was wondering why they used such a confusing explanation to extend the "last generation". And I think I figured it out.
The explanation is much more confusing than it needs to be. I believe this is on purpose. They know that most people will be embarrassed that they are too dumb to get it so will just go along.
That means when they go about dropping 1914 all together and just concentrating on the 90s all the confused people will be relieved that they have an explanation they can finally explain.

@ttdtt remember that where you incorporate doesn't mean much. Nevada has a good tax advantages so people incorporate there.
Looks like a penny stock that failed,
The Company was focused on becoming involved in the growing market for renewable and environmentally sustainable energy and intended to market and resell agricultural based bio-diesel fuels
Definitely sounds like something you might get from a farm.

Think about the term "The Truth".
John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Quality of newer membership
by Lostandfound inon a previous post mamacita29 pointed up the low quality of new jw converts.. is the quality falling even more as the society use lower than low meeting, talks, broadcasts etc.. when i was active initially the organisation and standards seemed totally different today.
i have seen hard working intelligent elders fall by death or exhaustion.
the younger generation that came along never really grasped responsibility hence shortage of good elders, never mind the watered down to almost nothing quality of meetings.

Ridiculous statements in this weeks study article
by the truth is mine inmaybe it is just me but when i read this paragraph all i could do is shake my head and wonder how i used to buy into this crap and how people don't wonder what the hell the writers are thinking'.
"imagine what life would be like if god did not have love for mankind.
we merely have to look at the awful history of this world with its human rulerships under its unloving and wrathful god, satan the devil.

Yea but he needs to let us rule ourselves to prove that his way of ruling is best. Oh wait, how does god abandoning humans prove his way is best? Maybe his idea is to make our lives seem so shitty without him that no matter what he comes up with it will seem better. Although if the JWs are the best he can do I think I'd choose where we are now.
