Scientifically impossible?! So I suppose every other crucifixion that the Romans did never happened, either! :-D Moreover, I have seen evidence from secular sources that crucifixion *IS* possible, but I'll pass on the literature, since Watchtower literature also once claimed "vaccination never prevented anything and never will." I'd sooner believe Mirza Ghulam Ahmad's belief that Jesus survived crucifixion and fled to Kashmir.
The notion of Biblical references to support the Watchtower claim sounds like one formulated by ignoring parts of the Bible, but then again, the Bible is so full of contradictions, it can literally mean anything to anybody. (The Bible specifically states that Jesus carried his own crucifix, as well as having his crucifix carried by Simon of Cyrene.)
And goody good on them for their interpretation of what the Bible has to say about idols. I'm sure it's killed a lot less people than the JW belief about blood transfusions.
Is it normal to be creeped out by Jehovah's Witnessess?

Also, in the bible, it clearly states it's bad to worship or use idols. a cross is an idol.
