i've been thinking about this the past few days and curious what the honest consensus is here just for fun.. show of hands,.

is the governing body.... a: completely sincere.

they really do believe what they teach.. b: somewhat sincere.

1. They are sincerely deluded enough to guard the interests of the WT corporation/JW 0rganization and
2. dishonest enough to suck away mercilessly anyone's energy and resources for the benefit of the Corporation/0rganization and
3. to try, through any means they can get away, with to destroy anyone who stands in the way of their Corporate/0rganizational objectives.

just noticed this very peculiarly uncanny similarity between website logos.did the jw.0rg come first or after--did the wt copy another website's logo?.

The 0rg's website logo in its internet embracing days used to be Watchtower dot Org -- With the front cover's title W letter of the word Watchtower featuring its characteristic double intermeshed V's, where one is V superposed on the other to make a W like the one in the Whitehouse logo.

It is so laughable that some folks still think Yahweh is more accurate than another. Which one is more accurate, to pronounce Jesus as Djeezuhz in English or as Haysoos in Spanish? Does it matter if the Aramaic was more like Yeshwa? And we insist on Spelling these with a Y instead of a J then weren't Y and J letters not even used for those sounds 2000 years ago?
One can only laugh heartily and fart in the general direction of such ignorance!

The joke is on you, unfortunately. No matter how many times you click the like counter it only records one for your account.
But at least you can get your jollies or frustrations out manic-clicking to see the count go up 😀

The NWT adds the word "the" in front of Saviour to try to distance Jesus from the word God. But the original greek reading does not have the definite article in that place;
ΣΙΜΩΝ ΠΕΤΡΟΣ δοῦλος καὶ ἀπόστολος Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ τοῖς ἰσότιμον ἡμῖν λαχοῦσιν πίστιν ἐν δικαιοσύνῃ τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν καὶ σωτῆρος Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ·
"tou theou hemwn" means literally "of the God of ours" and then "kai swteros iesou xristou" means "and of savior Jesus Christ".
