Can anyone give difference between cross and pendant with JW.ORG logo?
Further this logo has become the main identification of a kingdom hall.
Can someone give bible reasoning behind this? Against or favour.

Does anyone here really give a shit?
For certain, it is a lame argument to try to use on an active JDub.

KSFERNANDO:
This may not be a bible reasoning: but, I think, given enough time, any object may become a revered object in the eyes of certain people in any religion - just like a cross on a pendant is to people of Christendom.
I have to admit that when I started my ‘fade’ - I destroyed certain ‘revered’ memorabilia: a songbook signed by a so-called anointed person, etc. I tore them to shreds.

Doc what’s got into you lately?
To answer your question KSFernando, Jehovah’s witnesses often accuse Catholics, Anglicans etc of worshipping the cross. I think the correct term is ‘venerate‘. This is something they do on Good Friday, whereby they will kiss the cross as a way of showing respect for “everything it stands for”.
I think the subtle difference is utterly lost on witnesses, correctly or incorrectly. However I don’t see the difference between that and the behavior witnesses exhibit more and more, of gathering around an image of JW dot Org sign and pointing to it often kneeling before it!!! As in the link I shared above.
Witnesses have zero self awareness!!😒

Why no why would you suggest that ?
JWorg isn't a graven image, well at least to a JWS it isn't
Its Jehovah's Copyright symbol

A guess - being allowed the right to sell these goods with the logo on enables well behaved ex-Bethelites or similar to make a living perhaps?
Oh wow - earrings.

Would you get df'd for using their logo as a tattoo? Please, no one do this.
Oh I supposed you'd be marked! :D
