Jehovah's Witnesses

[Answerprancer]

Anyone had any experience ?
Myself: I've had half of my family ripped apart by this domatic narrow-minded, letter-of-the-bible bunch.
When they come knocking at my door I always greet them with "Yayy! JOEBOES !" and if they invite me to be a witness I tell them "sorry, I didn't see the accident".

sammmo that sounds horrible! i dont know how a family can do that!

[mike11111]

Sammmo's experience is not uncommon. If you think JWs are bad in this respect, you should see the Exclusive Brethren. Mercifully they are a very small sect and don't recruit.

how can they let people die by not believing in blood transfusions?

[sammmo]

whenever JWs come around to my door.. I just polietely tell them I'm not interested and close the door before they ask why.. sometimes I feel so sorry for some of the young people that are with these recruiters.. They are brainwashed by there own families in alot of cases.. I think in a way its child neglect...

[naomi24]

Alexander is quite right, and you are wrong Tweaker. According to the JWs only a limited number of people will reside in the heavenly Paradise. The rest of the 'goodies' will enjoy Paradise on earth. The 'also rans' have had it. Sperlatt!! Gone forever.

I too want to know what these truths about Christ are Tweaker, because if you know, you're the only person on earth that does.

[sammmo]

child abuse not neglect or maybe both?

i saw some jws waving at cars as they walked in front of me then they spotted me and walked past me saying good afternoon, i said alright mate then one said did i know there was another deciple ? i said i didnt know there was one deciple so f**k off before i lamp you and they did

[tweaker]

Folk's may I answer your queries in the morn?.
I'm about to sit down and have a bite to eat.

[wilkesneil]

i just don't aswer the door as they do the flats over the road 1st so we see them pull up. lol
if you put a GIVE BLOOD sticker on your front door it keeps them away, this is against the JOVO'S religion....

[alexanderd]

Tweaker is that because you cant answer the questions, its only 8 o clock. T hanks Naomi I was sure I had read it somewhere

[RATTER15]

When they come to visit me, I ask them in, they usually ask to be let out shortly after arriving :-)

Dearest Carakeel overlooks to ensure their safety, Bless them lol

[tweaker]

alexanderd. No.

I really am waiting to be fed. I have work to do in the morn, I'm free mid-day sir.
I cannot do better. Sorry.

[alexanderd]

I wait with anticipation

[paddywak]

I usually just tell them to go away (in the good old fashioned way)

[katekoala]

it just beggers belief - how can any religion be so narrow minded that if you do nto share the beliefs you basically shouldn't exist ?! Mad - knew a few people in work and school and they were always so sad as they werent allowed to celebrate birthdays (so werent allowed to kiddies parties) no christmas no TV etc etc ... i get that each to their own but I cannot stand being 'sold' a religion on my own doorstep I find it imensly rude and forcing children into a very anti-social world then disowning them for having their own beliefs. so very sad.

[tweaker]

Just one thing before I eat.

Have any of you studied the Bible, with cross ref to the dead sea scrolls and Hamadi scripts/codex's ?

I can only answer so many questions here.

You all must be wanting an answer to life - it's easy, just stop looking.

[alavahalf]

I can see a queue of ABers forming at the gates to the promised land..!

[naomi24]

We've been here before tweaker - and it came to nothing.

[lotsafun]

religion is a f@@ked up thing....full stop!
