FIRST OF ALL THE WITNESSES ARE NOT A CULT. THAT OPINION WAS FORMED BY SOMEONE THAT OBVIOUSLY FEELS THREATNED BY THE TRUTH.IT AMAZES ME THAT WHENEVER A WITNESS DOES SOMETHING WRONG IT MAKES THE FRONT PAGE OF THE NEWS! IF A BABTIST OR PROTESTANT DOES SOMETHING WRONG IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THEIR RELIGION. AND THIS BIG COVER UP GARBAGE IS A JOKE. ADMITTEDLY THEY ARE NOT PERFECT NOR CLAIM TO BE. MATT 24:9 SAYS THAT WE WOULD BE OBJECTS OF HATRED ON ACCOUNT OF HIS NAME. WHAT OTHER RELIGION IS HATED ON ACCOUNT OF HIS NAME? ONLY 1 THAT I CAN THINK OF THE WITNESSES PROUDLY GLORIFY JEHOVAHS NAME. ALSO WE ARE NOT PROGRAMMED. WE HAVE FREE WILL,GOD DOES NOT WANT ROBOTS, THAT IS WHY HE GAVE ADAM AND EVE FREE WILL. AND WE DO BELIEVE IN JESUS. HE IS GODS SON AND HE DID GIVE HIS LIFE FOR OUR SINS. I ALSO GET A KICK OUT OF THOSE WHO TELL US WHAT WE BELIEVE, ESPECIALLY IF IT ISN'T TRUE. PEOPLE JUST MAKE UP WHAT THEY WANT ABOUT THE WITNESSES AND THE NAIVE ONES BELIEVE IT. IF IT IS TRUE THEN LOOK INTO WHY WE BELIEVE WHAT WE DO. DONT JUST ASSUME TO KNOW EVERYTHING THAT THEY TEACH OR BELLIEVE BASED ON SOMEONE ELSE'S OPINION. TALK ABOUT HAVING A MIND OF YOUR OWN!!
LOL. My wife’s father came home from work one day when she was 5 years old...she has 3 older brothers and a sister...he told them all “We are Jehova’s Witnesses now...no longer Catholics so just forget holidays, birthdays, and doctors appointments.”
No B.S.
He turned that family into pure shit in no time at all. Endless physical and emotional abuse at his hands around the clock.
Jehovas Witnesses are usually 99% of the time brainwashed drunk or recovering substance abusing selfish dingbats and yes I have encountered enough in my life to pretty much generalize that statement.
Not quite sure what prompted your blog spew.
Sorry that you don’t the definition of a cult. JW are not mainstream in their Christian viewpoint or understanding. They do indeed ostrasize those who disagree with them. They follow a personality cult from the Rutherfords on down.
Sorry nothing biblical about their teachings. Most of it is extra biblical
LOL....

Anne - there are Christians in China being beaten and jailed. Same in India and in muslem countries. It pays to expand your knowledge base before making such claims.
AND WE DO BELIEVE IN JESUS. HE IS GODS SON AND HE DID GIVE HIS LIFE FOR OUR SINS. I ALSO GET A KICK OUT OF THOSE WHO TELL US WHAT WE BELIEVE, ESPECIALLY IF IT ISN'T TRUE.
It also helps to really know what you are talking about here Anne. What "Jesus" do you NOT worship -
A created angel who is "divine" as a "mighty god" next (but not equal to) Jehovah God - Reasoning from the Scriptures, pp. 212, 218
Jesus is not worthy of prayer or worship - Insight on the Scriptures, vol. 2, p. 667; The Watchtower, Dec. 15, 1994, pp. 24-25
Resurrected as Michael the archangel in a non-human spirit body - You Can Live Forever in Paradise on Earth, pp. 21, 144-145; The Kingdom Is At Hand, 1944, p. 258
These are YOUR teaching sources Annie - Are they lying or telling the truth?
Why did He die for our sins?
The soul of man ceases to exist after death - no hell - Knowledge that Leads to Everlasting Life, pp. 81-85
Second chance in the resurrection for all to prove worthy of everlasting life. - Knowledge that Leads to Everlasting Life, pp. 87-88
What makes us "worthy" Annie. And please in your response take the caps lock off, thanks :)
LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!
“WHAT OTHER RELIGION IS HATED ON ACCOUNT OF HIS NAME?”
Are you for real?
According to you guys only 144k people will go to heaven. Save yourself by not trying to convince others to possibly take your place.
YOUR CAPS KEY IS STUCK WHAT IS A BABTIST?
“I ran a color guard.”
“That’s not a crime.”
“Through the Watchtower Building?”
“Kinky. Sign here.”
Now that’s funny
Barnum would have loved you guys...
lolcats is my favorite cult. I have been brain washed
PLEASE POST MORE DEFENSES OF JW. YOU ARE ONLY HELPING YOUR CAUSE!!! MAKE SURE TO YELL LOUDER NEXT TIME. ALSO, RATIONALITY IS FOR PAGANS. AFTER ALL, ALL GREEKS WERE PAGANS, PLATO WAS A GREEK, THEREFORE PLATO WAS RATIONAL JUST LIKE YOU.
IF YOU YELL LOUDER NEXT TIME AND POST MORE LIKE THIS YOU WILL PROBABLY MAKE THE JW MEMBERSHIP PROUD OF YOU AND GAIN MANY CONVERTS TO YOUR NON-CULT.
WHILE YOU ARE THERE, I SUGGEST YOU USE THE CHANGING ROOMS.
hahahahahahaha oh how I love these kinds of threads
I’m glad to know they believe in the theology of Caps Lock.
I pray for the JW’s as they are so mislead, they do not believe in the deity of Jesus Christ, and if they keep denying Him they will not be making it to Heaven. Their movement IS a cult. They believe the 144,000 mentioned in the Bible are the ONLY people going to Heaven and that they have to be members of their watchtower thing. The 144,000 is the 12 tribes of Israel, 12,000 from each trible, THEY ARE JEWS! NOT JW’s. I will pray for this poster and we all should. There is only ONE way to heaven and that is through JESUS CHRIST, the Bible couldn’t be more clear-—wake up JW’s!
Creepy ;)
LOL, thanks!
IBTZ!
