    I posted the url in a pervious thread a few weeks ago but it dident get much attention.

    It offers a pole where people can vote on the quality of the NTW's translation.

    Take the pole.

    That should be interesting.

    Also it should be noted that it is owned by Jehovah Witnesses themselves.

    This website has a pole where over 50% of the voters thought that the NWT was an execlent translation.

    Over 50%!

    This website has most likely been saturated with jw sympathizers who are ignorant of the intelectual dishonesty perpretrated by the NWT translation comitee and veiw the NWT as a more than reasonable work.

    Shurley that should not be the case.

    Scroll down to the end of the page and take the poll.

    Come out and show your disaproval of the NWT.

    EACH VOTE COUNTS.

    FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE DISHONESTY OF THE WATCHTOWER.

    I see the number has dropped to under 50% now. Looks like some here have been visiting...

    And why not? Virtually everyone except JW's acknowledges the NWT as a travesty of the Bible, and that includes both religious and non-religious original language scholars. But the Watchtower keeps telling the JW's that the NWT is the best translation going, so of course that's what they all believe.

    It was because of that site that I had doubts about what people said about the NWT.

    Even though I knew that Franz had very little scholling in Biblical languages After I read their explainations they sounded fairly reasonable to me.

    In the guess book it states that

    [b]"IT IS SITES LIKE THIS THAT THE APOSTATES DONT WANT US TO SEE."

    That kind of paranoia is really alarming. I have never meet an apostate that wanted to stop anyone from reading any thing from the WT.

    The apostates I have meet only wanted to warn me of the dishonesty regarding alot of their explainations for contravertial matters.

    I am shure that if I were to look through that website I would find many fringe scholars sited to defend their translations and even worse scholars who have been misquoted.

    Since the site is owned by people who are Jehovahs Witnesses it is shure contain lots of info from the watchtower itself.

    Come out and fight back.
    EVERY VOTE COUNTS.

    p.s. I hope that after readind it that you dont consider regoining the org. Just because it makes sense dosent mean that it is true. That website is shure to be tricky and I may even consider recearching the quotes from Greek and Hebrew scholars myself.

    Any such misquotes would be welcome here on this thread.
