Either they will change a lot so as to become almost like mainstream religion, throwing out the dates and blood and such and maybe retaining the teachings on the Trinity and Hell and such, or they will have to tighten up and shrink a whole lot. They have started a PR site though, and that in itself says something. On the other hand trying to shutdown even pro-witness fluff sites like wit.net shows that old time feeling.
As they are not too bright and are very arrogant I would bet on the latter. They have started a PR site though, and that in itself says something. This is not the first century they have entered with failed prophecies trailing them. The difference is the net though. I think the teenagers of today will leave in droves. The future will be in lower case letters and smaller numbers except in third world countries. I also think in the hard core they can continue to whip them up with false dates and new understandings, they are, after all, the mouth peice of Jah.
Just my opinion.
