so, the official teaching is that baptism saves jw's from armageddon (1 peter 3:21), in the same way that the ark saved noah (jesus - not sure why jesus needs saving, though), his wife (the remnant - wt aug 15, 1990) and the six others (the other sheep - wt sep 1, 1989).. jehovah himself shut the door of the ark, and after seven days, the rain started to fall.
this shutting of the door corresponds to the start of the g.t., afterwhich no one can become baptized and saved, but must live with their personal agony throughout the g.t., knowing that they were this close to being inside the ark.. now, let's say that the g.t.

And why did the fallen sons of God not clear out a floor or two of the ark, and haul in a bunch of girls and women to keep the sex-party going?
The physics have been worked out, and the floodwaters must have benn quite hot, fallen from that hights, so, may be they got stuck in a hot tub-like scene, after all rain was a novelty, hot rain--add sex, --why bother the goats?
it has been 21 years since the 1995 article that pretty much buried the idea of the '1914 generation'.. remember those guys?
the ones born in 1914 that would still be alive when the end of the system arrived.. i'm glad i'm old enough to remember going from door to door, preaching this belief.
the reason i say that is because i have a lot of 'still in' jw friends and family.
Fisherman: "-- But since God's HS points to the wt, I must go along with it and that is my position. Inspite of that, one cannot go around teaching that--" If you still go form H2H, you are teaching that though, including the overlapping group anointed generation to last possibly to 2075. We went to the doors with the premise, that we are right, and the householder is wrong. well look back to the "superior Authority" fiasko.just as one example.
Of course wt writer want to make sense of it all, score any hit like they did in 1914, although except the date, everything was wrong. so did early bible writers, guessing how creatin works, no help from the creator or His Spirit whatsoever. so, TD has a point, there always are generations coming and going. Look to science what it generates in the generations to come.

(paranoid much) this is the foretold "prophecy" of the governments turning on religion and saving them for last.since the couple portrayed as simplifying their life by getting rid of a lot of material things is shown to be (about) the same age in the bunker we know it must be any minute now that it will happen.
i have been out for over 35 years and things seem to be getting more bizarre each year.. when did this doctrine really become main stream?

debating challenge: since the wt doctrine of the anointed generation must conform to bible teachings, and math 24 stipulates that the "generation " outlives "all these things" , and the anointed do not, how could they possibly be the generation, overlapping or not?
To those that contend, that "the generation" is defined by all features of the sign of Christ's invisible presence only,
when he said "all things", did he mean the intriguing prophetic possibilities, or was he emphasizing the terrible events that were to occur that are part of that text?
why would" the days [have] to be be cut short on account of the "chosen ones" if they are not to be alive, if they are to be already raptured, according to the wt published pre-Armageddon time table? ?
