I found an Article entitled "A Critical Look At the Jehovah Witnesses Bible"(The New World Translation). First, the watchtower society has said that their Bible was translated into English from Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek languages. The only thing that is wrong is that the translators wished to remain anonymous because they were not seeking prominence for themselves. But article states that the reason that these translators did not want to give their names was because they did not have the schooling or the background to be critical bible translators. So what that is saying is that they could have just put anything that they wanted to in these Bibles and people will end up believing a lie. A man who is an ex Jehovah's Witness gave the names of the translators because he had a job working with them in the past. Frederick Franz one of the main Bible translators had a court trial in Scotland in 1954 about the time the translation the New World Bible was being translated and he was asked to translate a bible verse into Hebrew and he refused to do it. This is after he asked been asked if he was familiar with Hebrew. This article has opened my eyes to the validity on the Jehovah's Witnesses. It sounds like to me that this a man made religion.
