Has the generation of 1914 passed away?

Anyone born in 1914 is 98 years old now.
Anyone who fought in WWI is probably not with us anymore.

I would say the generation of 1914 has passed by

yes but our understanding is not that people who were born in 1914 are the generation
who Christ was referring to, you did know that, right?

First of all, its not a prophecy, its an attempt to understand Christs prophecy, which we
did not author and secondly, you are citing quotations from articles which have been
revised as our understanding has progressed, pity that you didn't take the time to
actually ascertain what out understanding is before you posted it, but then again, you
would need to read the articles in the watchtower magazine rather than take pot shots
at them from a distance. Tell, me, what is our present understanding of who or what
'the generation', of Matthew 24 is?

i could provide evidence, but im not going to, for it would make not the slightest
difference as to how you view Jehovahs witnesses.

There is a flicker of hope for them yet, however. It has been reported that women live longer than men, normally. So maybe there are some women, who never fought in WWI still breathing.

Ok but people born before will be even older and most likely dead people well but the specific date is 1914

Anyway we can dismiss this prophecy as it has come to pass and even of the Watchtower Organization own words

you have no idea what we teach with regard to the generation or why do you. People
before? did you make that up? Are you aware that we profess an immediate fulfilment
of prophecy and a greater fulfilment.

so you dont actually know what it is we teach with regard to the generation or why,
interesting, 500 pages later and you have no idea.

no i have told you I am not going to participate in any capacity, enough time has
passed by for me to understand that its an absolutely futile exercise not only to
correspond with you in this regard but to hope that you will accept any of our reasons.

I know who my friends are, dont worry.
