Examples of the WT Mishandling/Misrepresenting Quotes of Jewish Publications
by Disillusioned JW inpage 257 of the wt's 1965 book called "things in which it is impossible for god to lie" quotes from the jewish encyclopedia (edition of 1909) regarding the trinity doctrine.
the first edition of 1901-1906 likely has the same text as the 1909 edition and the text of the 1901-1906 edition (in the article about the trinity) can be read online at https://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/14519-trinity.
the wt begins its quote with the phrase "the concept" but the words replaced with "..." say "the fundamental dogma of christianity;".

that doesn’t seem fair, especially when just a few days ago the fda pressured amazon to stop selling any products containing nac, even though the product has been sold for 57 years with no issues.
why would the fda take a sudden interest in, and legal action against nac?

this reflected a belief, common in the 1970's that commercial nuclear reactors were capable of going up in a mushroom cloud like an atomic bomb.. although no one can deny that accidents and malfunctions at nuclear power plants can potentially be catastrophic, these reactors are not capable of a bomb-like reaction.
