It is interesting to learn about what humans think on a matter, but it seems better to learn what God thinks, especially about religion. It's tempting to ignore the bible, but the bible is the only unbiased guide to God's Will and purposes.
http://watchtower.org/bible/
The bible actually prophesies that false religion would:
- Meddle in war and politics
- Spread false doctrine
- Tolerate immoral sex
By contrast, the bible shows that true religion would:
- Practice love
- Trust God's Word
- Stenghthen families and uphold high moral standards
Each human must make a concientious decision about whether he will choose to honor and obey God, or instead obey his own human preferences.

The Jehovah's Witness followers are not a religion. But only a break away sect/cult of the Prodestant, Christian Church.
If you research how they were formed it is quite a story.
Thier belief in the founders rather ridiculous claims of visitation!
Then his reasons for not being able to prove them!
A person of even below average intelligence would realise instantly, that anyone who does not have a personal agenda could freely believe in their tenets of faith, is unbelievable.
It is not a cult that focuses on anything possitive.
Nor does it abide with anyone questioning the sect's structured beliefs.
There is no forgiveness in the true sense of the word.It appears to be purely based on fear.
Fear of alienation from family ,friends and community.
Fear of the end of the world.
Fear of judgement by God,the cult leaders and family,so the list goes on.
The money spent on producing thier door to door delivery of professionly produced booklets.That are full of dire warnings and encouragement to join thier cult was spent on deserving and needed services etc., in the community or third world countries.
There would be some justifacation for printing them.
Of course, you do get a free offer of salvation thrown in with the door vist.
One that they recommend you take up a.s.a.p.as the end is nigh. This is the same threat they have been using for over 8o years.
No! I don't think God will wake uo one morning and say, "Okay Earth this is the day.I and my crew are coming down to put an end to you!"
"Only the Jehovahs Witnesses will be spared."
My father is 95 in January and he still has a hose strategically placed'and turns it on to "hose 'em down" when they come to his door.He has done the same thing since before I was born evidently!
I do believe the only way Earth will be destroyed or made semi-inhabitable is, if we don't listen,NOW to the screams of Mother Nature".
If we listen then, maybe a some time in the future. We will finally learn to live in harmony,as religion will become more of an individual belief and percerption.
By then, I'm sure such a thing as racisim will be a part of history that will be wondered about.
As we do now with slavery and women not being allowed the vote.
That was only 100 years ago!

According to the Book of Revelations, in the New Testament, there will come a day when the false religion will end. The New Testament is not exactly clear on which religion is the false one, so that is a matter of one's interpretation and faith. Given that all things end, I would have to say that, if a religion is indeed false, it will end.

Yes, it is. Thank you for reading the tract called "The End Of False Religion Is Near!". That was a wise thing to do. As was mentioned in the tract, the bible states at Revelations 17:17 what God will do to destroy false religion.

The day will come when the governments of man will turn on all religion and abolish it. The difference between JWs and other religions is that those of other religions need a church, or at least a pastor,or lead them. With JWs, every individual is a leader and any three is a congregation. A good example is when the USSR fell. While other religions sent in missionaries, the JWs were having a convention which was attended by 10s of thousands, with over 2000 baptized. They manage to thrive.

No, people will always come up with some kind of thing to believe in. I mean, if Jehovah Witnesses want false religions to end, wouldn't that be putting themselves out of business?

Yes false religion will end and only ONE will stand true in amazement. No matter what religions are practiced in the world. Each religion contributes to the ONE that is real. But because we are all human we put our ways of what "religion" is.

"False religion" is subjective. I highly suspect most xtians follow a 'false religion' if you ask a different variety of xtian. So, no. Xtians are going nowhere. False religion will never end as long as there are different ways of honoring the divine.
