    What stands out in this article is all the names, something you rarely see in the watchtower.

    “We’re very ahead with technology,” says O’Malley, pulling up today’s set scripture on his smartphone. Later, he says: “We’re like Google – we’ve mapped the world.”

    Since they were very late in the game to take advantage of already existing technology how can they even think this???

    Well balanced article. Positive enough for JWs to read without feeling guilty but contains enough thought-provoking comments to linger with the thinkers....

    Is it just me or does this remind anyone else of how Ensign Chekov - on the classic Star Trek - would attribute every worthwhile invention and idea to Russia?

    Yeah and Klingon General Chang in The Undiscovered Country claiming that you've not heard good Shakespeare until you've heard it in the original Klingon. They've been stealing ideas from other religions for years, like they took the Christian teaching of Redemption and called it the Ransom and said they invented it.
