I would have to say that the views on JW are the most skewed of any other reliegion. You people know they are Christians right? And you people realize christians(which were originally considered a cult) are just as weird right. All religion is weird,, none of it makes sense, its just blind faith. Everybody thinks that they are right but nobody can prove it, it just depends how many people you have on your side. Can you show where they predicted exact dates?
They've done it multiple times, the most recent being 1994.
1914, 1918, 1920, 1925, 1941, 1975 and 1994- Jws: Here are other dates that the Watchtower Society predicted. 1975 looked likely as it was computed as the 6000th anniversary of the creation of Adam in the Garden of Eden in 4026 BCE. They interpreted Psalms 90:10 as defining the length of a generation to be 80 years. Since 1914 plus 80 equals 1994, they predicted Armageddon would occur around that year. The latest estimate was 6000 years after the creation of Eve, for which no date can be determined with any accuracy.
Look up the individual years for the various prophecies of Christ's return.
I know they're Christians. So are Mormons, really, but they're a radical sect like the JWs.
All organized religion is poisonous and detrimental to society, I don't try to pick on any in particular... but one that has predicted the apocalypse several times within living memory and convinced their followers that they have not done just that... deserves my special attention.
