I was interrupted while writing post 772. Here is one thing I wanted to add:
Do you ever wonder if some of the "helpers" in the Writing Department ever comment outloud to each other, "Jesus F. Christ! Did we actually write this crap? WTF were we thinking?"
And yet, if you go to almost any of the JW-favored discussion sites like Topix or Yahoo!Answers you'll see JWs and apologists copy complete pages out of Watchtower and Awake! magazines, with paragraph numbering and exact punctuation - everything - without any editing (and often with no commentary at all), just copy and paste work. Now all of that is clearly copyright infringement (or even worse - plagiarism).
Watchtower does nothing. I guess taking on Topix, Yahoo!, or favored JW discussion sites (you know, the ones that ban apostates and require you to tell them what song closed the last Watchtower meeting) is not on their agenda. Just the low-hanging fruit (speaking of Governing Body members in the shower ) is all they choose to go after.
I promise that Cedars and I will be a little more careful in the future.
Are you ready for the reveal? Here it comes...
I'm sure you all figured it out ahead of time...
