I think I must have completely misunderstood you. Do you or do you not think the JWs interpretations of Revelation are dangerous? My interpretation of 'dangerous' is 'harmful'. I assert that interpreting Revelation literally is no more dangerous than religious intolerance, in fact, far less dangerous.

I asked how literal interpretations are dangerous, and you replied with: "Have you met any JWs. A large part of my family are JWs, and believe me, literal translations of Revelations are dangerous."

Since your post was lacking in detail, I had to make some assumptions based on the tone and attitude of the language you chose to use. I apologize if I misread you.

'Tis alright. I wasn't terribly clear, and left room open for misinterpretaton.
