    I said no corporation associated with watchtower meaning that watchtower is not making money off of these items. I made that point because people on this thread immediately said it was a way for watchtower to make more money. I said what I said to highlight watchtower does not make money off of them.

    "They have repeatedly informed witnesses not to make or wear these items with either a watchtower logo or the jw.org logo." - Richard Oliver

    Apparently, a Caleb and Sophia pin is sanctioned as ok to wear.........especially if you are married to a member of the Governing Body!

    Don't be silly. Of course the WT makes money from them.

    It is called "donations". You know...from those guys who are stepping out on their own and making coin from selling those popular little marketing devices.

    The org likes it. Free advertising and more money for those "donation" boxes.

    All I presented was actual facts not conjecture or speculation.

    Whoever did that video needs to get a dictionary and look up "tasteful".

    They want to have their cake and eat it too. I wonder who came up with the idea of marketing to the JWs. It's such a narrow niche.

    The org's propaganda gurus have more than likely convinced the WTBTS hierarchy of the old saying, 'There's no such thing as bad publicity,' and that anything which publicises J.W.Borg can only be good for "God's earthly organization."

    So, for 10 quid (UK money) you can have God's Holy Name as a bracelet on your wrist... Ain't that something????.

    "Look how righteous I am"

    What is the difference between this and the old Jewish phylacteries when they tied cases with God's name to their person ,taking Deut . 6 : 9 very literally?..... The WT caned that practise as foolish ... These dubs are regressing into commercial parodies of what they once were.

    I am surprised that they do not stop them using their own things to make money ,like Brooklyn (treating it as a temple) and Caleb & Sophia.

    Copy right or not if Wt was opposed to it they would shut it down over night with a statement on their Web site. It just stuns me to think of the 360 degree turn they have made on this.
