I do not believe that we are still waiting for an additional specific fulfillment of the man of lawlessness, before the day of Jehovah can arrive. (2 Thess 2).

Just to break it down. JWs believe:

  1. The MOL is exclusively Christendom's clergy
  2. The presence of Jesus Christ began in 1914 and the MOL/clergy were revealed by the preaching work of JWs
  3. Since the presence has begun already, we are now waiting for the "generation" to be sealed in heaven

If any of those variables are incorrect, then the whole framework fails and we have to start from scratch.

  1. The MOL "...sits down in the temple of The God, publicly showing himself to be a god" (2 Thess 2:4). Are we to believe that in 1914 Christendom was the "temple of The God"? 
  2. If Jesus Christ presence began in 1914, how can it be said in the Bible: "For just as lightning flashes from one part of heaven to another part of heaven, so the Son of man will be in his day" (Luke 17:24)? Also, since 1914, have the MOL/clergy been done "...away with by the spirit of his [Jesus Christ] mouth and bring to nothing by the manifestation of his presence" (2 Thess 2:8)? The clergy are still very much thriving post 1914.
  3. The original 1914 "generation" died off. This has lead to the GB developing a new theory on the generation (two overlapping groups) after 100 years of maintaining the other theory. Is there clear, Biblical evidence for this new theory or was it created to maintain an outdated theory?

These are some points that appear to discredit the framework of JWs.

Bethel has a long history of child labor: (Genesis 35:16) 16 Then they pulled away from Bethʹel. . . .  Rachel began to give birth, and her labor was very difficult. And wickedness too:

Nope, you are not going to derail US into an off topic discussion!! Not falling for that!
