Split with Barbour
I'm not sure that citing the AH Macmillan works can be reliable, since 'theocratic warfare strategy' may had been used during the writing of it. There appears to be strong motive for the use of TWS and subsequent quoting of this particular passage in an attempt to play down a very large expectation of prophetic date by many thousands of followers as taught throughout congregations in USA and rest of the world.
Incidently, the JW faith is crumbling at a gathering pace since we have entered the 21st century. The Macmillan book is officially-recommended title during 'sheperding' activities for persons weak in their faith to read, together with '2 Babylons' by Hislop which strongly denounces Catholisism.

POV is not based on imagination or speculation. Actually, putting POV the way you did is POV by itself. Hence, If you have sources, they are wellcome. If not, things stay as they are.--Vassilis78 07:31, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Schism
The beginning of the article states that "A widespread schism in 1918 resulted in the formation of two groups, one known as Bible Students and the other as Jehovah's Witnesses both of whom trace their history back to his ministry" but JW didn't start calling themselves Jehova's Witnesses until 1931.
