That will teach me to read two Guardian articles in one day.
Either way it has to be tripe. Us? Here? Consuming the same delicacies as the cheese eating surrender monkeys?
No chance.

No. Becuase carbon dating is all bollocks don't you know, what with the pre-flood water canopy keeping all those C14 ratios completely different.
I know 'cos I read it in the WT.

No. The WTS treats Homo Erectus as an ape and nothing to do with the ancestry of humankind.

@losingit - couldn't agree more. The whole concept is bollocks. All I was trying to point out is that this is not a change to their overlapping generations teaching. What it is is yet another damage limitation exercise because it is clear from day one that they did not want to give this impression but have failed to do so. This is despite several attempts through the publications and DA/CA keynote talks.
My guess is that they have had continual feedback to the branches that the R&F don't understand it and think that it means the big A could still be 100+ years away. This is them trying to put an end to this long term view and ensure everyone brings it back down to it being just a handful of years away max. JWTalk already has speculations on timeframes.

This is not a new understanding. It is a really mad way of trying to get it over for once and for all that the current generation teaching does not leave the way open for another 100+ years of the last days.
They didn't make it clear when they brought it out first, they tried in a subsequent WT and they have tried numerous times via DA & CA talks.
What they are effectively saying is that all the original generation of 1914 are now dead and that there are those of the annointed whose lives overlapped and there are others who became annointed after the first lot died. These are not part of the overlapping generation.

Becuase I don't have billy big bollocks that are big enough to cope with the pain, hassle and almighty fallout there would be if I simply stopped, let alone if I actually was completely open about how I don't believe a word of it any more.
I am on a very slow, slow fade. So far so good.

by life is to short inmy husband just gave me the latest km the novermber 2013 and it yet again has a question box on head coverings.. question box "should a female publisher wear a head covering if she is accompanied by a male pubisher at a doorstep bible study?".
it says "when a female publisher conducts a reagular, scheduled bible study and a male kingdom publisher is present, she should wear a head covering.
(1 cor 11: 3-10) the july 15 2002, issue of the watchtower page 27, explains: "this is a prearranged session of teaching where the one conducting the the study actually presides.
