    How "good" were the JW organization predictions?

    I'd say they were false and wrong. Can we agree on that?
    No, I will agree that you do not understand what they did.
    Individuals may have anticipated events and spoke out of turn.
    How can you say that their organization did it?
    That's like saying, "I lost a game of chess. It is the fault of the USCF."
    I may get better. I keep trying.
    But I may still lose a game. Is that the USCF's fault?
    Does that help you understand?

    Because their organization [your organization right?] published it in its official magazine which was that organization's way of communicating with its members.

    This analogy ~ if not meant to be tongue in cheek ~ is an extension of your dishonesty in addressing the issue of the false predictions that were published by your organization and then later 'covered up' with a very clumsy application of the No True Scotsman logical fallacy.

    Sorry, I don't know of any false predictions.
    I know the media makes false predictions and sometimes they
    even correct them.
    Maybe that's what you expect.
    I don't read old newspapers.
    I don't have time.
    I live for now and hopefully for the new world
    to come through God's Kingdom through His Son Christ Jesus.
    That's Good News that is true!
    What do you live for?

    The JWs have never made any false predictions. Dont let anyone tell you otherwise regardless of what proof they provide. They are all a bunch of liars and the Watchtower organisation is Gods chosen organisation. Only JWs will be in the Kingdom of God.

    One can see what being a member of your organisation has done to you. You remind me of Winston Smith.

    How good are the weatherman's predictions?
    It doesn't stop us from looking to see what the weather will be.

    As Christians we should always be looking for the end.

    You are not a Christian, you are a Jehovah's Witness.

    They are only false to you because you don't understand the process.

    If research is done to cure cancer and they think they have a cure but,

    it doesn't work, are they false prophets?

    Research in knowing God and what He is doing is the same.

    (Ecclesiastes 3:11) He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has even put eternity in their heart; yet..... mankind will never find out the work that the true God has made from start to finish.

    Learning about God is an ongoing process including when He will end this system of things.

    (Matthew 24:36) “Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father.
    (btw this verse also disproves the trinity if you believe that falsehood)

    Evenso, we need to keep trying to find out.
    (Matthew 24:42) Keep on the watch, therefore, because you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.

    Our everlasting lives are at stake.

    Members of the church of "Christian" Science aren't Christian anymore than you are just because some of you have decided to alter your official name.

    Again you show your arrogance.

    Jehovah's Witnesses is a millenarian restorationist Christian denomination with nontrinitarian beliefs distinct from mainstream Christianity. - wikipedia

    Pointing out your ignorance is not an act of arrogance its a public service.

    The truth of the matter is not dependent on your personal preferences. Your ignorance has been pointed out to you and your refusal to correct your point of view has now elevated itself to a state of wilful ignorance. Next stage is religious bigotry.

    Blather on all you wish, I'm not alone with in my view and in fact I'll wager with you that none of the regular mainstream Christian posters here will classify the Jehovah's Witness cult as a "Christian".

    Your appeal to a secular source is moot.
