No of course not - they would never risk being accused of idolatry.
But.....With all this fanfare over jw.org pins and such - their silence speaks volumes!

to all bodies of elders in the united states branch territoryre: experienced attorneys and paralegals needed at bethel.
dear brothers:.
Yeah I am sure they have the lawyers sign a million forms before they show them the dirt, but since when is a lawyer scared of legal forms? I hope one of them turns purely because of conscience - like Barbara Anderson did.

They bombed that old light power plant. It's just smoke and ashes.
Another example of light not getting brighter at all, but one light being turned off and another turned on based purely on convenience.

this week we have mention of the 12 tribes of israel in the bible study.
we have the same thing mentioned in the wt this week.
12 apostles are also mentioned (need to double check that one).
Why would the current leadership that IS the slave, after all, worry about what anybody wrote prior to them? They are Number #1, so what do any other numbers mean? - prologos
Isn't that the truth?! They even demoted the original 12 apostles with their latest FDS "new light" bologna.
Ain't Narcissism great?

At our international conv., the visiting gb member asked for prayers for the gb. He said there's just a few of us.... with a wimper and a shrug of the shoulders. I was like, "please dude, you expect us to feel sorry for you?"
It's their system - they can appoint whoever they want, and we are supposed to feel sorry for them. He says this with his face on the jumbo-tron..... unreal.

if you walked up to any jw and said "i just spoke to satan" they would think you lost your mind.
while that reaction makes perfect sense in the real world, in wt land it doesn't add up.
here's why i say this -jw's are supposed to believe the following:.
Isn't it strange how Jehovah doesn't offer protection from car accidents or the flu, but seems to offer 100%, 24/7 constant protection for all of his followers worldwide, regardless of their level of faith, from direct contact by any wicked spirit creature on earth (or by any good spirits for that matter). Especially is this protection iron-clad when it comes to a conversation. I guess we could vaporize if a demon spoke to us and said "What's up?".
Remember a third of the - myriads upon myriads - of angels fell with Satan and are trapped on earth. So that's a lot of protection. Praise Jah you people!
Only elders are supposed to talk to apostates - prologos
Then I am doing a lot of what I'm supposed to be doing - LOL... (still no sign of Satan tho)

i have read the site with great interest over the last few weeks.
some interesting stuff thats for sure.. i have left the jehovah's witnesses (was almost going to say the 'truth') for some time now.
i was one of the lucky ones that was baptised then faded, no humiliating disfellowshipping but nonetheless was very hard to get myself out.
