    The Investigator article (1997):

    After downplaying the usefulness of computers and condemning the Internet and electronic Bulletin Boards as a place for pornography, and a "moral minefield", the Watchtower Society (WTS) came on the Internet this year with their own web site!
    It seems skeptics aren't fooled by hypocrisy anymore than apostates.

    But Stephanus, isn't this food at the proper time? The WTS can handle being on the Internet because they are so full of Holy Spirit; unlike we, the Great Unwashed, who would easily succumb to Satan's snares.

    Doesn't that type of nonsense sound so stupid now?

    Except ... the Society has had their own website for years (not just doing it htis year) ... and years ago added the media-PR site, and they also have (had) a special site for just the Pennsylvania corporation ... it was meager, and appeared to be for business use only. - Jim W.

    Big Tex, may I edit that? I think it should be: The WTS can handle being on the Internet because they are full of Holey Sh*t.

    Jim, Steph referred to a 1997 article. I remember when apostates made fun of www.watchtower.org cause it was blank.
