As is usual for tracts and pamphlets from the Watchtower, however, this is not done and instead the article merely smacks of religious bigotry. These thrilling truths are found in the Bible. Statements such as this are so incredible that we must wonder if some Witnesses are sure where their 'rationality' ends and their fantasies begin. We might explain all this easily as the propaganda of a group of humans rather than magical or supernatural forces. Quite often religious ideas are the focus of superstition, and this is why it is so difficult to decide where to draw the line between supernatural truths upon which to base one's life and fantastic, deceptive fictions.
Superstitions can be quite dangerous.
If one hasn't researched the material about which one is reading, superstitious literature may inspire rumor, miscommunication, and prejudice . Superstitious writings and practices should be respected as such, with all the tolerance that goes along with freedom of religion in civilized societies. What one does not wish, personally, to read or to undertake is one's own business, and is sometimes the business of one's religious peers. Beyond this we ought to make allowances for those whose preferences include the practice and reading of superstitions, helpfully providing what data we have acquired about them when they ask for it. What's worse is that many Jehovah's Witnesses are completely ignorant of the history of lies and deceptions delivered unto the faithful by the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, whose leaders remain obscured in a semblance of humility.
