    One of my favorite things to do with any wt publication, is to look for the "sin" pictures. They are always pretty funny, cartoony, and classic propaganda. The Knowledge book had some but it seemed to be toned down from the standard study book that preceded it (I can't remember the name). Now that book had some awesome "sin" pictures. My favorite was the very dated picture of the guy and the lady disco dancing with a sinful expression on their faces. The shifty eyed doctor performing the blood transfusion was another good one.

    It seems though that this new publication is taking the propaganda back towards being over the top. The "sin" pictures in the new pub are just hysterical. My favorite is the crazy eyed guy with the gun.

    My other favorite pictures are the door to door pics. The householders are always smiling and interested. I joked with my dub wife that they should show them realistically with a confused or incredulous look on their faces, or slamming doors. We had a good laugh on that one.

    If anyone has scans of the new sin pictures, be sure to post them for the enjoyment of those who are luckily out of the loop on such matters.

    Sorry, I am far from my scanner. But I know what you mean. A few times I posted a picture "make your own caption" The ones that tickle my funny bone are the earnest expression say, between young slick-haired MS wannabe and his mentor-elder, the "family bible study" with the girls meekly kneeling at daddy's feet, dress shoes indoors, and meeting shots where EVERYONE is attentive with book/magazine in hand.

    Specially designed imagery is very helpful in programming unsuspecting minds.

    I love the picture on pg.91 where the guy is wide-eyed and mouth gaping with glee over all the money on the table....ohh that evil lover of riches.

    Yeah that is a great one. So realistic.

    I also love the obviously ill woman who has made the poor unfortunate decision to save her life by getting a blood transfusion. Yes she would have felt much better if she had died.

    Forgive the quality. From "You can Live Forever in Paradise Earth" (c) 1982, p. 236. Caption: True Christians let love cover over causes for complaint.
