  Deconstructing Splanes 'Generation' explanation

  by Splash in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  at around 4 minutes into the september 2015 video splane said "for the man and the baby to be part of josephs generation they would have had to have lived at least some time during joseph's lifespan.".

  this is the lynchpin of the wt argument, that two lives must overlap to be considered the same generation.. let's take an example of twins who are born just a few minutes apart.

  obviously, these twins are the same generation as each other.

  Has anyone asked older Jdubs how they feel about the GB annointed getting younger?

  by sherrie11 in

  i was married to a 30 year old jw back in the 90's and he claimed to be of the annointed.

  he partook at the memorials and all the elders and older jdubs didnt believe him.

  they actually gave him a really hard time.

  I just can't get my head around the fact at that time in the early nineties the doctrine was still pretty much 'Thousands living will not die" and that they were really promoting how there were only a few thousand anointed left etc.

  There is one elder I really feel for as he and his wife were former Giliad Students Brooklyn Bethelites than Missionarys.. blah blah and didnt have kids. Now its 2015 and the GB are getting younger and he is probably 80 plus. He is a real organizations man. I wonder if he has had cognitive dissident moment in regard to this or is he so indoctrinated that it just gets accepted.

  Sanderson would of been 47!! when he became a GB how do the older ones get their heads around that!! Considering in their day it was generally accepted the anointed and GB would be old.

  Hope this makes sense.

They actually gave him a really hard time. (this was before they suggested ones like him may have mental issues) These elders,CO's along with men and women would now be around the ages of 60-80 years old and I often wonder how they feel now seeing some of the GB members being just over 55.

  I wonder if there would be penalties if for instance the elders in a congregations or the Society in general do not report a child abuser. As we know due to the Royal Comisssion that in most cases they do not report these people to the police.

  I think a Royal Commission is different from ordinary summons to appear at court.

  ROYAL COMMISSIONS ACT 1902 - SECT 3

  1) A person served, as prescribed, with a summons to appear as a witness at a hearing before a Commission shall not:

  (a) fail to attend as required by the summons; or

  (b) fail to attend from day to day unless excused, or released from further attendance, by a member of the Commission.

  Penalty: $1,000 or imprisonment for 6 months.

  (1A) Subsection (1) is an offence of strict liability.

  Note: For strict liability, see section 6.1 of the Criminal Code .

  (1B) Subsection (1) does not apply if the person has a reasonable excuse.

  (2) A person appearing as a witness at a hearing before a Commission shall not fail to produce a document or other thing that the person was required to produce by a summons under this Act served on him or her as prescribed or that the person was required to produce by the member of the Commission presiding at the hearing.

  Penalty: $1,000 or imprisonment for 6 months.
