Peru also has the same law. But it is not as followed. Almost everyone from Chile will tell you that the KH's put the flag, but not many from Peru. But some KH's in Peru do put the flag.

Does anyone walk by the flag on the KHs and salute it? Any uniformed soldiers for example?
You never know. But technically, by the definition of the 2002 Watchtower, they're being "asked" to "hold it so that others can salute"... so... yeah. -

(Leviticus 26:1) 26 “‘YOU must not make valueless gods for yourselves, and YOU must not set up a carved image or a sacred pillar for yourselves, and YOU must not put a stone as a showpiece in YOUR land in order to bow down toward it; for I am Jehovah YOUR God.
*** w02 9/15 p. 24 “Salvation Belongs to Jehovah” ***Suppose one is not asked to salute the flag but merely to hold it, either in a parade or in a classroom or elsewhere, so that others can salute. Rather than ‘fleeing from idolatry,’ as commanded in the Scriptures, this would actually mean being at the very center of the ceremony.
It is splitting hairs.
If the law requires you to put a flag... that's ok. If the law requires you to hold a flag... that's not ok. If the law requires you to somehow participate in the ceremony... that's not ok. If you want to wear your national team's colors on a jersey... not ok... -

Formatting issues
by bikerchic inhow do i turn off the formatting when i use the quote button?.
when i want to start a new paragraph and can't get out of the quote section?.

Press the paragraph button ... to the right of the quote button.
That doesn't seem to help, Simon. What I do is go on HTML view and start a new paragraph after the "blockquote". -

Another changed WT publication from when it was first published to now
by ILoveTTATT2 inthis is as it was originally, or at least at the time that paul grundy saw it, because he has this picture on jwfacts:.
this is what it says on jwfacts right now:.
watchtower articles on evolution contain a consistent pattern of poor research, such as quotes from both the january and august awake!

It opens the slipperiest of slopes (for them).
I disagree. There were lots of "from our readers" that pointed out mistakes, and sometimes, they would actually thank the reader for the correction. They stopped printing this section in 2012 apparently. Here was one of the last ones:*** g 6/12 p. 29 From Our Readers ***
I was a little disappointed and dismayed to see “adult diapers” mentioned in the article. The term is very demeaning to anyone who is in the situation of having to wear protective underwear. Not one of the commercial packages containing “protective helps” uses the word diaper.
Name withheld, United States
“Awake!” responds: Thank you for bringing this point to our attention. Our heart goes out to anyone who is dealing with serious health problems, and we certainly do not want to add to a person’s suffering by using terms that some may consider to be demeaning. We apologize for any distress this may have caused our readers.
They can afford to be honest and admit corrections in the publications. -

In this case it seems they fixed a factual error in attributing a statement to the wrong author, which is fair enough.
Yes, agreed SBF, but, if they made changes, it would be the honest thing to do to point them out.For example, a NYT article I recently read about Gary Johnson and his "what is Aleppo" gaffe, said:
Correction: September 8, 2016An earlier version of this article misidentified the de facto capital of the Islamic State. It is Raqqa, in northern Syria, not Aleppo.
Correction: September 8, 2016People make mistakes, they should show that there was a previous version to maintain transparency.An earlier version of the above correction misidentified the Syrian capital as Aleppo. It is Damascus.
