    I would love someone else's perspective on this. I realize my copy paste skill here not workin so well. I meant for John 20:24 where it says

    "Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails " to display. So it says hands, but their illustration shows the nail going through the wrists. what's with that??

    It's a hypnotic trick.

    It subsconsciously generates a feeling of uneasiness and confusion and thereby prevents rational consideration.

    Why do most JWs not ask the same question when they see the picture? Why do they not realize it conflicts with scriptural depiction?

    Wonder what they would say if you asked them?

    Then again, it may have to do with believing the torture stake theory and that one could only be supported at the joints in such a position. Even so, it still conflicts with scripture.

    For some reason it makes me think of this song:

    Always Look on the Bright Side of Life Some things in life are bad,
    They can really make you mad,
    Other things just make you swear and curse,
    When you're chewing life's gristle,
    Don't grumble,
    Give a whistle
    And this'll help things turn out for the best.
    And...

    Always look on the bright side of life.
    [ whistle ]
    Always look on the light side of life.
    [ whistle ]

    If life seems jolly rotten,
    There's something you've forgotten,
    And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.
    When you're feeling in the dumps,
    Don't be silly chumps.
    Just purse your lips and whistle.
    That's the thing.
    And...

    Always look on the bright side of life.
    [ whistle ]
    Always look on the right side of life,
    [ whistle ]

    For life is quite absurd
    And death's the final word.
    You must always face the curtain with a bow.
    Forget about your sin.
    Give the audience a grin.
    Enjoy it. It's your last chance, anyhow.
    So,...

    Always look on the bright side of death,
    [ whistle ]
    Just before you draw your terminal breath.
    [ whistle ]

    Life's a piece of shit,
    When you look at it.
    Life's a laugh and death's a joke it's true.
    You'll see it's all a show.
    Keep 'em laughing as you go.
    Just remember that the last laugh is on you.
    And...

    Always look on the bright side of life.
    Always look on the right side of life.
    [ whistle ]

    Always look on the bright side of life!
    [ whistle ]
    Always look on the bright side of life!
    [ whistle ]
    Always look on the bright side of life!
    [ whistle ]
    Always look on the bright side of life!
    [ whistle ]
    Always look on the bright side of life!
    [ whistle ]
    Always look on the bright side of life!
    [ whistle ]
    Always look on the bright side of life!
    [ whistle ]
    Always look on the bright side of life!
    [ whistle ] Repeat to fade...
