For the 33 years I was "in" their seemed to be a constant barrage against catholicism from either the watchtower or awake mags., and hardly a peep out of them towards other individual faiths .
I havent read any of their publications for well over 20 years and was just wondering if anything has changed in this regard .

when i was a witness about 12 years ago. The first magazine i had was about child abuse in the Catholic church. Now im reading lots about child abuse in TWS.What goes around eh !
There is plenty of anti catholicism voiced by individual JWs, nothing specifically anti catholic in print that I have noticed.
They tend to refer to christendom as a whole these days. As was mentioned though individuals still refer to Catholicism when criticising other religions. Never Islam or Buddhism or Hinduism though, funny that.
I'd like to see them have a go at Islam. It could get a bit tasty at the Kingdom Halls in Birmingham and Bradford (UK).
smiddy - "Is the organisation still obsessed with attacking the R.C.church in their publications?"
Not so much, specifically.
Invites too many uncomfortable comparisons.

It's impossible to condemn the pot when you're the kettle.
