The danger of Jehovah's Witnesses (even from a simply moral non religious perspective) is not their interpretation of the Bible. Interpretation is one thing, but straight out lies, misquotes, and additions with the attempt to decisive is another thing all together.I have already done some research and study on this topic as I frequently speak with Jehovah's Witnesses, and so I was recommended this book by a friend and thought it might be another tool in the box. I am not sure there was anything new or different in this book that I had not already studied or heard about. The main thing I liked about it, which many others mentioned is the documents to back up what you are saying. The only failure with that is that anything over 10 years ago is simply brushed off as "receiving new light." JW's are slippery fish, and it is hard to corner them.When Jehovah's Witnesses first started they had to use the Bibles that were available and just tell all their people that they couldn't understand them, or that verses were translated wrong. That left their people helpless to understand the Bible without the Watchtower's aid. Just read this quote, “A person would go into darkness after two years of reading the Bible alone; would be in the light reading the Studies in the Scriptures alone.” (Watchtower 9/15/1910, p. 4685) Now they have written their own Bible and given it to their faithful. In their previous version of the New World Translation they had parenthesis around all the added words, like "Son" at the end of Acts 20:28 and many times throughout Colossians chapter 1 (this version used to be visual and comparable directly from the website, it appears that it has been taken down now.) In the new 2013 version all the added words are now a part of God's words.
