Jehovah Witness Blesses a Pagan

jaydubeeyas;
Why did one of your own (all faithful from Abel till now are jaydubeeyas right)
bless a Pagan dictator who thought he was God on earth?
Genesis 47:7 Then Joseph brought his father in and presented him before Pharoah.
After Jacob blessed Pharoah, 8 Pharoah asked him,"How old are you?"
9 And Jacob said to Pharoah the years of my pilgrimage are a hundred and thirty.
My years have been few and difficult, and they do not equal my fathers.
10 Then Jacob blessed Pharoah and went out from his presence.
comments anyone.

I think Pharoh sneezed is all.

and then he said good luck.... I think Jacob needs a stern talking to either way. ha honesty, I have a funny feeling it is dismissed by the WT along the lines of "well that was just a formal way of greeting high ranking officials or something like that." I think Jacob blessing Pharoah, would be the equivalent today of, Ted Jaracz blessing President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
