    But if your "Oh come now" was re: Obama policies being similar to Hitler,

    It was in response to Obama's policies being compared to those of Hitler's.

    I think some of these reactionary pundits need to take a chill pill.

    I'm sure there will be a legal definition of "public service" that one has to meet in order to qualify. Preaching isn't really a service to anyone but the preacher so he can get himself into the New System.

    Absolutely there will be a concrete definition of Public Service (also known as "mandatory volunteerism") and it will not be mouth work.

    As a matter of fact, "prostelytizing in the public square" is to be done away with according to Human Rights documents per UN.

    cameo-d, "mouth work" lol, that's about right.

    Can you say more about the ban on preaching? The UN's current Universal Declaration of Human Rights, especially Articles 18 and 19, seem to say the opposite.

    Incidentally, I can see several articles that jws/wts don't follow--

    Article 12 (announcing dfd people are like thieves)
    Article 27 #2 (they don't give proper credit to authors)
