Hellenism and all christians

[Metis]

1. The NWT is not just a rewriting of the whole bible and a joke. Look up the wikipedia page. There are criticisms but the overall view is that the work is "excellent."

I literally just picked this off the first result off google and it tackles the basic problems well enough. The JW's replace words that don't suit their theology with their own as I mention below.

2. Jesus being Michael is a doctrinal issue not a textual issue.

No other Christian denomination claims Jesus is the reincarnation of the Archangel Michael. We have literally no trace of such a dogma before Charles Taze Russel announced it nor any evidence in scripture to support it.

3. Jesus dying on a stake not a cross does have some compelling evidence. The word often translated into cross is styros, meaning stake or tree

The New World Translation renders the Greek term word staurós ("cross") as "torture stake" because Jehovah’s Witnesses do not believe that Jesus was crucified on a cross

This isn't a word with multiple meanings, it literally can only mean cross. Torture Stake would have to be Vasanistí̱ria Pontárisma

4. Do you have references for Jehovah being Zues? Or even that Jehovah and Yahweh are two separate entities

Jehova is a derivative of Jove, which is the English word for Jupiter. Jupiter is the Latin word for Zeus. St Augustine (as you'll find one of his works in the last links) actually had this problem in his own time with people mistaking the OT god for Zeus due to the similar language Jews and Greeks used to describe both Adonai and Zeus.
