Weren't they supposed to not use those [Watchtower symbols) in the Kingdom Halls?
There was a letter directing the elders to to eliminate the WT trademark symbol. I don't think the letter specifically said so, but I got yhe impression that it was for legal reasons. If anyone got hurt on congregation property they would have no basis looking to the WT corp. for redress.
The "articles of association' that the Society is having congregations sign on to also distinguish the WT from the kingdom hall.

Having been to varied churches I have seen that they ACTUALLY conduct their services as worship.
The JW 'meetings'(TM) are a s stated before....glorified sales seminars.

Considering that JWs think having a poster of a sports star hanging in your room is idol worship,they don't know the definition of worship.

I thought the same as you Mr Punk sir, when I was in, consoling myself with the idea that the Songs and Prayers may be worship.
The Prayers were mainly rote, as though the guy was reading a script, same old phrases, the Songs themselves were god-awful, and the singing sounded like a load of geese farting in the fog, to steal a phrase.
Sounds like the sort of worship the awful god "Jehovah" deserves, come to think about it.
