    I was looking at some old WT articles and I found this quote. I thought it was pretty ironic, what say ye?

    The Vatican belittles Bible study by claiming it is the only organization authorized and qualified to interpret the Bible." (The Watchtower, 7/1/1943, p. 20

    That is a riot... So much of the stuff they accuse other religions of, they do all of the time!!! Hypocrites is what they are. I honestly don't understand why more JWs can't see that. The WTBS is constantly making statements and then contradicting itself in a demented circular way of thinking that has no end or logic. Oh, that is right - don't question - only OBEY. If an elder tells the congregation to jump off the nearest cliff - do they all go for it??? Answer: Yes. Elder speaks for GOD.

    If you go back really far, you can read about how JWs thought that black people's brains were smaller then whites and that was why they could not hold a position in the congo. Also, you can read about how all docs are quacks (including funny cartoons to go along with the articles). If you had an old victrola (sp?) you could even listen to the Judge give fire and brimstone talks that sound just like old Baptist preachers. There's all kinds of funny stuff if you go back in the early teens and twenties. The stuff they believed in and what they said. It is a riot.

    Think they don't like what they see when they look in the mirror. The JW is a replica of the Catholic Church. :)

    The Catholic Church has more right to say that because we got the bible dfrom the authority of the Church councils.
