G'day plough folks,
Englishman William Tindale was an excellent Greek Scholar. It is said that he was so well versed in seven different Languages that no stranger could determine which one was his native tongue. He was a very committed man and determined to translate the bible into English. He began while living in a small attic room at Sudbury Manour shown above. His English bible was completed and published in December 1525 and a new phase began, how to smuggle the Bibles into England. In an argument one day his debater is reputed to have said, 'We'd had better be without God's Law than the Pope's'. To which Tindale replied: 'I defy the Pope and all his Laws and if God spare me, I will one day make the boy who drives the plough in England to know more of the Scripture than the Pope does. To me he is no saint, tainted as he is by his frienship with the misogynous jew burner Martin Luther.
The Watchtower Society has bragged long and loud that it is a hero and saviour of the downtrodden. A rich blessing to the weak, the widows, the orphans and the downhearted. They claim William Tindale as one of their own, the Watchtower 'faithful and discreet slave™' being the final link in a linage of righteous men who bought Gods word to the world. They say that they rejoice in the “plough boy” having access to the 'divine word of God.'
Well big brother, times move on. The plough boy now sits in front of a computer with access to more information than his grandad ever dreamed possible. He has instant links to specialised knowledge in every field imaginable and beyond. He can learn about valid and invalid argument, otherwise known as how to spot a bullsh*ter at one hundred paces. He can tap into the minds of hundreds of others on any given topic and he has the analytical skills to sort out what he believes is most important and useful.
He has all this and a printer at his side.
