<< JW's are under theological pressure to maintain that Jehovah is the

 Christians - or others - are immune to this sort of pressure - but it
 follows an old path from doctrine to scripture - and not the other way
 around.  Mormons who question the teachings of JS or BY are cast out. 
 Period.  Likewise JW's.  There is no room for compromise - therefore
 "curiously reluctant" becomes less curious.

Dear Greg:

You are in error. JWs exert no such pressure regarding the divine name. I 
made this point in a previous post to Henry, but B-Hebrew has for some reason 
not yet let it through. 

You should check your facts before you make such negative, sweeping 
statements regarding another person's belief system. 

Regards,

Greg Stafford
