  What Do You Think Will Be The Next Big Change In The Watchtower?

  by minimus in

  i think there will be a change in the 144000 belief.

  too many witnesses think they have a heavenly hope.

  maybe 1914 will be discarded too.. what is your watchtower prediction?

  I don't see big changes, rather, incremental changes of omission. They will simply ignore 1914, and soften the distinction between the great crowd and anointed. Combine this with simply not giving the number of partakers, and the problem is solved.

  Any major changes will be seen in the legal structure of the organization. The accountants and lawyers will take over.

  Can you ever see a time when Govt`s of this world will attempt to abolish all religions ?

  we are now in the 21st century of our common era with its insights into the potential of what can be achieved in the near future to benefit mankind for years to come .. the co-operation of governments around the world on so many levels has never been better than it is today and it is at least encouraging to see this .. whether it has to do with the climate , the environment ,food production ,safe water for all ,and the better health for all in the near future, and in the future space exploration.

  however the problem today is still religion !

  in its many extreme forms that divides us in no ways that politics divide us .. politicians learn how to compromise and work with their opponents for the greater good ,whereas religions don`t.. religions divide humans like no politicians ever did well not to the extremes religions will go anyway.. is their going to come a time in history when governments politicians say enough is enough and try attempt to abolish religion ?.

  I never understood what "abolish" means in this context. Other than removing the tax status (which they should), what else can the government do?

  The basis of religion is individual beliefs. The government has no ability to change individual beliefs.

  2 other halls in the area were slated for closure.

  I suspect it is hard to keep a positive attitude these days in JW world. The slow march to oblivion has to be painful.
