Just so you know Jane, there is no Watchtower organization. There is the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society but that is just a required legal structure. The name of our organization is the “Christian Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses.”

I should ask, is there a preference between Mormon or Latter Day Saints?
Jane is very respectful and very humble, she understands, it’s other on here who think they are better and insult others, that I must say about Jane, when she says something she does so in a kind way and not bitter or hateful, as others do.

I asked SIMPLE questions that nobody here want's to answer, so far. Stop playing the victim.
Since this has gone on for a while, I will show you why JW’s aren’t responding.

“But while he was being accused by the chief priests and elders, he made no answer. Then Pilate said to him: “Do you not hear how many things they are testifying against you?” But he did not answer him, no, not a word, so that the governor was very surprised.
Matthew 27:12-14

We try to imitate the Christ when faced with false accusations or insincere questions.

Amen brother and peace be onto you.

I have noticed the same thing. I hope I was respectful to her.

Do you agree with everything Kingdom Hall teaches? I realize JW's avoid simple questions like plague, but give it a try.
No question is avoided when asked out of genuine interest.
Would you like me to ask questions of you based on the assumption that you are a bigoted, ill informed and very unchristian excuse for a Christian?
If I implied that every time I posed a question to you, how would you feel? Would you want to justify your position by using those very traits to answer? Wouldn’t your response just confirm what we can already see.....? Others here who are not JW’s can see what you will not.

Has any JW answered even one of my simple questions about your doctrine? Do you need to consult Kingdom Hall?
The Kingdom Hall is a building.

Do you believe JW's will rule the world?
Are JW's gods?
Are you equal with Jesus?
Are you a god?

What's going on? JW's attack our Bible like Satan himself in this forum. I ask simple doctrine questions two weeks ago and JW's flee!
Tell me when I fled....I answered your questions by exposing the the ignorance and the motivation behind them.

The fact that you have asked them again means that you can’t read or comprehend anything but your own narrow view. So tell me why anyone would bother to dignify you with a response....?

That’s telling him Aunty Jane, I will always love you like a sister and I mean that from my heart, my only problem is that I can’t turn my back on my country or not salute the flag, therefore I would never be accepted as a JW, that is my weakness.

I will always have immense respect and love for Jehovah’s Witnesses, the most caring and loving people.

Do you actually have Watchtowers from 120 years ago or are you just parroting things you cannot possibly know? Why would any of us answer any of your questions? See how Jesus answered false accusations and insincere questions at Matthew 27:12-14. We try to imitate Christ.

I wonder how I knew to refer you to that scripture since as Pearl says, we are not encouraged to read the Bible.
I didn't say JWs didn't know scriptures. Most of them probably can immediately quote more passages than I could - but that is because they are 'trained' not through personal study.

The Church’s correct name is “The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints”. For people I go with “LDS Christian”.
I have noticed the same thing. I hope I was respectful to her.
You are ☺️

People who need to put others down are people who need to build their ego up because they have low self esteem and small minded so it makes them feel big and good.

The same applies to cults like the JW's and others, it's an arrogance thing, they like to think they know more than the rest of us poor slobs..:)

Be careful JW's, the naughty step...;)

"the Colored race... have been and are a race of servants...There is no servant in the world as good as a good Colored servant"
— JW The Golden Age, July 24, 1929
"..the white race exhibits some qualities of superiority over any other.....the greater intelligence and aptitude of the Caucasian.."— Zion's Watch Tower 07/15 1902
"..colored people have less education than whites.....reading matter distributed to a colored congregation would more than half of it be utterly wasted"- Zion's Watch Tower 03/15 1900

This is low blow Dropship! There isn't a religious community in the world that if we scrummage through their old writings you wouldn't find racism, or prejudices in their teaching.

The two posts I've read of yours don't impress. Lets use your logic against the Apostle Paul shall we? Acts of the Apostles 28:22

Maybe you are a poor slob?

I never got that feeling in all my interactions with them, most kind loving decent people you’ll ever meet.

Take the JW's "Jesus was crucified on a stake" belief, it can be easily debunked because on occasion it was the custom to break the legs of whoever was hanging on crosses so that they could no longer push up to relieve the weight on their outspread arms, making breathing impossible and bringing death quickly.

But what really scuppers JW's credibility in the eyes of the general public is that they'd rather die than have blood transfusions..

And the "shape" of the cross is a salvation teaching? More of the same...

Thank you John, experience speaks louder than the negative hear-say of our opposers who operate on biases acquired by other ignorant people all too eager to confirm their own prejudices. Jesus encountered the same treatment....it didn’t make him wrong, or shield him from lies or mistreatment.
He told his disciples to expect the same. (John 15:18-21)
