I thought the WBT$ published an article about flags once....I don't remember if being positive about them either!
Salute the flag kids!

Already seen the retort, "We don't worship our flags, they're just advertisements." Let the JW rationale begin. -

We don't worship the Governing Body, they're just God's "Visible" representatives. -

That such devotion to the flag should be customary is not at all surprising in view of the fact that “early flags were almost purely of religious character,” according to The Encyclopædia Britannica. That authority and others show the development of flags. In the hope of assuring victory pagan soldiers at first carried their idols and carved images with them into battle. Then they made miniatures of their carved idols, which they placed on the end of staffs. Later they painted representations of their idols on cloth and fastened these to the staffs. Thus is seen the evolution from carved idols to modern flags.>>
