    Luke 3:14, " Also, those in military service would ask him: “What shall we also do?” And he said to them: “Do not harass anybody or accuse anybody falsely, but be satisfied with YOUR provisions.”

    This scripture boggled my mind even when I was a JW! How do they get around this one? WHY didn't Jesus tell them to GET OUT of the military if THAT is the Christain way? I no longer see it as wrong to protect your fellow country man and those who you love. It is my opinion that no true Christians supported Hitler but many Christains helped bring him down.

    It is indeed a problem for JW reasoning.

    If this were really such a huge issue (as JWs make it out to be) - why not spell this out clearly: QUIT THE MILITARY IMMEDIATELY!!!

    Pretty crazy. Just another bible contradiction.
