When the overlapping generation was created back in the mid 90's...
The overlapping generation is the latest iteration.
The mid 90's understanding was the utterly nonsensical notion that the wicked won't be destroyed at Armageddon until Armageddon occurs...

The New World Translation is a Mess
by Amazing inthe new world translation (nwt) contains thousands of serious errors.
the following regarding john 1:1, one of the most noteworthy verses to jehovah's witness and ex-jehovah's witnesses alike, provides a case example of how and why the nwt cannot be trusted.
there some few scholars that translate the word was "a god" or "a god" or "divine" but they are in the very low percentages.. in greek john 1:1 says: "en arche en ho logos, kai ho logos en pros ton theon, kai theos en ho logos.

Fourteen year old thread. These people don't participate here anymore. Some of them are no longer with us at all
Narkissos would have been the one to ask if that were not the case though

Can a Jehovah’s Witness pray to Jesus as Stephen did at his stoning without being disfellowshipped and never able speak to his family again?
LOL - Almost certainly not....

Do You Support Trump Being Impeached Again?
by minimus init looks like it can happen again and i suspect if it does happen, the senate will not convict either because they can’t convict him since it’s after his presidency or simply because they don’t have sufficient votes..

I believe the Articles of Impeachment need to presented and voted on in the House while the individual is still sitting as president. Once that happens the Senate "trial" need not occur during the actual term of office

by smiddy3 inthe first 3 presidents of the i.b.s.a ./ jehovah`s witnesses / wtb&ts.. w.h.conley ,c.t.russell ,j.f.rutherford .. how many jehovah`s witnesses know that ?
how many ex jehovah`s witnesses knew that ?
the wt society teaches that jesus returned to begin his "invisible presence" in 1914 directing his attention toward the earth as ruling king.

There is some evidence that Rutherford first mentioned 1914 as the beginning of christs second coming in the 1930`s.
"Some evidence" implies that the question is not resolved or in some way in doubt.
It's not....
The dismantling of Barbour/Russell dates has been meticulously documented by Crompton, Penton and various other scholars
The crowning of Jesus as King of God's kingdom was moved forward 40 years to correspond with the end of the Gentile Times in the year 1920 (The Watch Tower July 1, 1920 p. 96) which was just a couple years after Rutherford became President
The resurrection of the saints (first resurrection) was moved forward ~40 years (1878 to 1914) in the year 1927 (Light Volume I p. 226)
The very last clear reference to 1874 as the start of the Parousia can be found in the book Prophecy pp 65-66
The first clear reference in The Watchtower to 1914 as the beginning of the Parousia occurs in the December 1, 1933 edition page 362. That this change was about to be made official can be seen in The Golden Age, April 30, 1930 pp 503 - 504 and Light, Book I, p 74)
At this point, virtually every time element of the Barbour/Russell eschatology had been modified. The only thing left was the idea that 1873 marked the end of 6000 years since Adam's creation
Perhaps this chart would be helpful:

Do you think voters should be required to prove that they are legitimate?
Yes. My state went that route and it's not that big a deal.
You ballot is printed for you and you alone. It is tied to your Photo ID by control number
Here's how it works
Photo ID is required to vote in person. The 3d barcode is scanned and a living, breathing person compares the picture to your face. Your ballot is then printed
Absentee ballots must be requested in writing and your Photo ID number is required. Photo ID is required a second time when you drop the ballot off. If you chose to mail in the ballot, your signature is hand checked with the signature on your Voter ID

It was a two week segment he did in 1990 where he would read off names of people who had died while songs like Looking For Love In All The Wrong Places played in the background.
He apologized for it and said it was the single most regrettable thing he'd ever done. (Or something like that)
It would be nice to be able to take back our mistakes, but none of us can. (Which is why it's better not to make them at all)
