  Just read that Carl Olof Jonsson died yesterday

  for newbies, who was carl olof jonsson?

  he was a jw in sweden who was challenged by a householder in the 1960s, who pointed out to him that secular history books don’t agree with watchtower that jerusalem was destroyed in 607 bce, but instead place the event 20 years later.

  the reason the date is important is because it is the starting date for jw chronology which leads to 1914 as the end of the gentile times, and the beginning of the last days, as jws understand it.

  Hi there,

  I am reading COJ’s A critique of the two-part article published in the public editions of The Watchtower Part 1, and noticed he said on page 1:

  
  

  “In 2005 I wrote a 13-page refutation of such “standard letters” [from the Watchtower Society explaining 607] that could it be sent to those who contacted me. If someone is interested in receiving a copy of one the Society’s “standard letters” and of my refutation of it, just send me an email.”

  
  

  My question is, does anyone have his refutation of the “Society’s ‘standard letters’”? Thank you.

  Actually the site admin was last active "Mon Dec 28, 2015." So he must have passed away.

  I noticed that too regarding the consulting firm. As of today the jwresearch . info site is abandoned (never completed) but financially maintained.

  So what’s up with the JWResearch . info site? I noticed it was down last Thursday, and then came back up. Its discussion board appears to be abandoned, and his website never completed. I see there was a member here by that name too, JWRESEARCH, who was last active here 11 years ago. Was he its webmaster?

  I imagine the author and webmaster has passed-away, but someone pays the website host to keep it up.
