I hope somebody sends the article to Pat Condell when it comes out. He'll make a lovely video about it.

So how do I get to go on an "Atheism March"?
God the WTS's "department of lies and fabrication" must be working overtime.

Was this "religion as a snare and a racket" before or after that sign that says "Religion as a peace-maker" in that picture above?
Good point. At least the lecture "Government and Peace" that is also mentioned on that picture was held in 1939. A talk by Rutherford in the Sydney Town Hall was announced (but prevented by opposers) in 1938, but I don't know if that was the "Religion as a Peace-Maker" topic mentioned on the poster.
The "religion is a snare and a racket" campaign seems to have started in 1938. So it seems that the "religion is a snare and a racket" and "religion as a peace-maker" campains overlapped. That means "a snare and a racket as a peace-maker".
Anyway, "religion is a snare and a racket" and "Jehovah's Witnesses are the true religion". Hence Jehovah's Witnesses are the true snare and the true racket.

processor - looked at that picture again and on the sound truck it says "religion is a snare and a racket" so I guess they were already into the overlapping idea back then.

Oh, you're right.
I couldn't find anything regarding this "Religion as a Peace-Maker" lecture. Maybe it was about false religion as a counterfeit peace-maker?

George, you beat me to it! Tee hee hee! Yes... beards are evil.
The WTS and JWs are all about an 'Us vs Them' mentality. It helps to justify their isolationism and the ideal that they are God's Chosen. Of course, if you're an atheist, this means they were chosen by no one.
Which also means the importance they place on themselves is all in their own delusional minds and has absolutely no value outside of their world.
