    You wonder if the Society will join in support of Traditional Marriage and efforts to overturn same sex marriage.

    I think they'd probably love to, but in the internet age, they know that approximately 30 seconds after filing it, it would be known by every JW & ex-JW with an internet connection.

    It would be quite hard, even with their decades of duplicity, to explain how that would be "political neutrality".

    sir82- Years ago the Society filed a Friends of the Court Brief with the Hare Khrisna to allow Airport witnessing. I don't think many JWs knew, and the Society didn't publisize it.

    Didn't they also file a brief with the Supreme Court during the Jimmy Swaggart case? It's not unprecedented for them to do so, though, as a rule, they try to distance themselves from other religions as much as possible.

    The only time the Watch Tower files an amicus brief is when it involves their Almighty God, Money. The Jimmy Swaggart case involved sales tax of religious items and literature that were sold. The Hare Krishna case involved the marketing AKA: witnessing.
