Smart phones and WT library-a means to the WT$ end?

darth frosty

Was talking to my sister today die-hard Pioneer (god bless her) she was telling me she finally going to get herself a smart phone.

The reason? Another sister had one and had the WT library on her smart phone. She was thrilled with the prospect of being able to look up anything just with your phone.

I started thinking, with my devious apostate mind, This could be used against them! Think about it you see some witness you tell them about some BS from the 96 WT and how it contradicts worse BS from the 09 WT. It used to be the JW would say he would look up the info when he got home. Now with smart phones and zealous Dubs loading the WT library on them you could challange them to look up the info right now.

With tongue planted firmly in cheek I can say:

WT BULLSHIT? There's an App for that!

Instead of lying about looking it up later, they will instead tell you that they won't be deceived by apostate reasonings and shut off completely.

... they will instead tell you that they won't be deceived by apostate reasonings and shut off completely.

That's easily fixed. Don't provide the reasoning yourself. Just supply the question that gets them to do it for you.

Yeah, WT Library Mobile has been around for two years. The thing is you need to have Windows Mobile to use it. It makes sense, though. Windows Mobile (the one before Windows Phone 7) does not have a centralized way of distributing applications like Android or iOS do, this it makes it easier for the Watchtower to not attract too much attention. They certainly don't want their software in say, the App Store, where millions of people could have easy access to their whole library of crazy publications.

but if you have Isilo (which is available for Android as and app) you can get the standard WT on your Android phone, for example.

my 2 cents
