That particular publication has a history of going with whatever the current leader says at the time, and of being fairly hypocritical and extreme in some ways.

ANSWERThe Watchtower magaizine is a religious magazine that has always remained politically neutral. Jehovah's Witnesses were viciously persecuted for their neutral stand in Nazi Germany. They take no sides regarding the Anglo-American coalition and the situation in Palestine, since these issues are politicalwhich they believe belong to a system they do not view as God given.

The function of a Roman or any other watchtower, for that matter, is exactly what it's name tells you. It is for watching.

Can Jehovah's Witnesses socialize with people of other faiths?

Yes, they do. Many Jehovah's witnesses have close friends and associates that are not of their faith. However they likely usually find friends from those that share their value system. Jehovah's Witnesses are cautioned about the dangers of associating too closely with those that are immoral, sexually provocative or violent. The Watchtower 2nd February 1994 comments: ''We must also be on guard against extended association with worldly people. Perhaps it is a neighbor, a school friend, a workmate, or a business associate.'' Kingdom Ministry June 1989 '' We have been counseled to be cautious in our dealings with men of the nations, unbelievers, and ordinary persons. (See the November 15, 1988, issue of The Watchtower, pages 15-16.) Why should we have unnecessary social contact with people who still pursue worldly ways and who have not become worshipers of Jehovah?'' Watchtower 15th April 1993 ''Limit your association to spiritually minded Christians who really love Jehovah'' With these things in mind spiritually mature Jehovah's Witnesses try to avoid associating in any meaningful way with non Jehovah's Witnesses.
