  another thread asks, "is it possible to reason with a typical jw?

  " but a couple said, what i'm trying to say is you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink.

  another unmentioned proverb says: one convinced against his will is of the same opinion still.. .

  Disfellowshiped for NOT Saluting the Flag

  did i not read somewhere that in the mid-1930s a growing number of jws were resisting the flag salute?

  when the matter came to a head, rutherford had the anti-saluters disfellowshiped.

  by the end of the 1930s "new light" reached rutherford, and he started disfellowshiping those who did salute the flag.

  as serious as it is and as sad as it can be, sometimes you just have to laugh at jw idiosyncracies.

  just now i was reading the name of yehowah by gerard gertoux and laughed out loud when i got to the part i will mention shortly.

  first, a brief disclaimer: based on internal evidence that it was written very shortly after a jewish rebellion, most scholars date the epistle of barnabas to either 70-79 c.e.

  nwt hides the divine name as found in w&h

  one of the foremost features of the 1948 macmillan edition of the w&h

  greek text is the careful identification and indication of ?quotations from the old testament.?

  for example, the j7 to which you refer only supports 39 of the 52 occurrences of 'jehovah' in nwt of acts.
