Excellent points, AMNESIAN! When I was still a Witness I could see there were many things stated in the Watchtower that were clearly stretched by the writers to apply some scriptures to themselves, yet then applied other scriptures to whatever they saw fit, regardless of the context!
And like you, I wasn't encouraged by it, I was confused and DIScouraged
The good thing was though, that I started to read the Bible more, and saw what it REALLY said.
