I just found an excellent web site on how Muslims can deal with JW"s when they call.
It mentions some good points on "is the Bible totally inspired of God" that I havent seen writen before.
Some new ones might find it handy.

some of the questions are a bit interesting tho nothing a good witness shouldnt be much more able to handle than the author would seem to hope. i find this part very funny at the beginning:
Jehovah's Witnesses are trained to deal with Muslims. In their handbook entitled Reasoning from the Scriptures they are taught what they should say to Muslims (see especially pages 23 and 24; 1989 edition). On page 24, for example, Jehovah's Witnesses are instructed to use the following strategy:
When the Muslim says what Islam teaches, ask him to show you the point in the Qur'an. (Wait while he searches for it). When he cannot find it, he may be more willing to let you speak.
This and other tactful strategies gives Jehovah's Witnesses an unfair advantage in dealing with some Muslims who are not equipped to explain their faith.
First of all, i always thot this particular instruction wasnt very helpful and was actually kind of insulting. but apparently not! the booklet doesnt say, 'how dare the JWs think that a muslim cant find scriptures in the Quran to defend his belief!' nor does it recommend that muslims counter this line of attack by actually LEARNING where the Quran verses are they need. there isnt a single Quran refrence in the whole booklet that i can see. instead they cry foul. 'hey! unfair! youre taking advantage of the ignorance of muslims!'
i think thats hilarious.
