New World Translation, eh?
by Bofug inanother on eof my fovourite articles .
the new world translation (nwt) was created between 1950-61 in several parts, beginning with new testament (nt).
the translation was made by an "anonymous" committee, which transliterated and altered texts that were problematic for earlier jws.

WTS Chronology(Oslo Hypothesis) from Vicar;Trinity College Fellow,Cambridge
by Gamaliel ingamaliel report, september 2003: .
the source of the 606 and 607 bce date for nebuchadnezzar's destruction of jerusalem was originally based on misunderstanding ptolemy and some poor biblical exegesis.
interestingly, a lot more jehovah's witnesses are now aware of second adventist origins for c.t.russell's ideas.

Why Aren't Jehovah's Witnesses Allowed To Freely Express Themselves?
by minimus init's a simple fact.
jw's cannot freely express themselves.
they can't freely tell another about a doubt or a question that they might have for fear they could be exposed to the elders.

John 1:1 for nonbelievers.....
by logansrun ini've often felt that the most objective person in a situation is the one who has no stake in the outcome.
this holds true to religious issues as well.
we all know freddie franz translated john 1:1 as "the word was [a] god" and the rest of the christian world flew through the roof.
