I would say "What up dawg!?!" Then we would high-five, grab a bottle of Jack, and hit the beach.
i'd ask him if wanted to share this j with me
I would tell him I'm sorry and that I just couldn't do it.
I truly believe he'd have compasion for those people who SEEK him...regardless of their religious affiliation. Many non-JW want to please him and are trying to find him, and they do the best they can to live by his example.
If the JW's WERE right, i'm sure he'd have a LOT of cleaning up to do in that organization before asking others what they have to say for themselves.
I would say:
"You bastard, look what you've done. Now, clean it up."
I would say 'dude you're one crappy pathmaker' and take off cross-country.
Well, what could one say? If this being is as arbitrary and hateful and unforgiving and all powerful, as he's always been presented via Christendom and mostly through JW's, then what's there to say? It would be like a Moth caught in a Black Widow's web. I still wouldn't want to live with the hateful people and organization who supposedly represent he and his father for an eternity. So, I guess I would say something like:
"Sorry I just couldn't do it. Have fun killing me and my kids and pets and my neighbors and my friends and everyone I've ever loved along with my...... Have a great "paradise"--then my molecules would eventually be dispersed. I wouldn't mind having my essence rebuilt into a nice peach tree. I wrote a poem to that affect when, as a JW teenager, I realized that I was never meant to be a JW, and felt that I was deserving of death--at 13--it actually crossed my mind to save Jehovah the trouble and slit my wrists open then and there. Great religion you have there--hope you haven't been entrusted with children.

Well, of course it just won't happen. A much more likely scenario would be for Jesus to appear and say:
"Can you believe how these Watchtower people have twisted my simple words of of love and truth? When did I say to shun your family? When did I say to forego medical treatment? You people have done me no credit at all. You have just alienated them from me. Some of you think that you are going to rule with me? Get real!

Nostalgia isn't what it used to be....
If Jesus came back & told me that the JW's were the only ones who "were right", I would kindly thank God that I chose to leave that organization. If they were the only "true" path, then God left billions of people on earth without the chance to make a well-informed choice, as well as let his "organization" hurt many good, decent christian people in their mis-guidance. They say seek, but only within their organization. You have doubts - you're out. You make a mistake and not "in" in your cong - you're out. God said we'd know his followers/believers by their "love" - if the JW's is typical of the "love" God wanted shown, I'll be happy to step out of the picture and let him have this earth - it isn't a place I'd want to live.
