nice points -- thanks, JustHuman.
Now let's say you're wondering if today's Watchtower Society accepts forensic evidence such as DNA as a "second witness". You could call them but we all suspect where that would lead you. Instead, why not try to find all JWD discussions (threads), some six years worth of them, based on the following terms: "two witness", dna, evidence.
If you place "two witness" dna evidence in the search field you would come up with some 44,039 hits to choose from. Kind of unwieldy isn't it?
That's because, unlike many search engines on the internet, Google is one -- each term is not considered to be an addition to the others. On JWD, it's like stating: "two witness" OR dna OR evidence.
What's the difference?
"two witness" OR dna OR evidence yields 44,039 hits
"two witness" dna evidence yields 44,039 hits -- evidence that JWD search expressions are actually terms that use hidden OR operators.
However
"two witness" AND dna AND evidence yields only 18 hits -- a far more manageable number of threads to sift through.
Please Note: the operators AND, OR, NOT must be capitalized. If they are in lower case and, or, not they will be ignored.
