  Just because someone's a Witness, it doesn't mean they're horrible people. But the religion is very strange.

  When you think about it, a Witness can't go to a work Christmas party by themselves but if an unbelieving mate wanted his JW wife to accompany him, this is her personal business. Huh??

  A JW can't give a Christmas gift but they could accept one. Huh??

  A Witness can't give blood in any way shape or form to another but accepting blood components is ok. Huh???

  Can you think of other "inconsistencies"?

  Witnesses encourage other people to read their "Bible-based" literature and attend their meetings, but refuse to entertain the thought of doing likewise unto others.

  Sickening.

  They say lying is wrong unless they do it and then it's "theocratic strategy".

  Witnesses don't hesitate to criticize other religions and can be knowledgeable about scandals regarding other religions but refuse to even listen, let alone investigate any criticizisms of their own religion.

  Witnesses believe that a loving God would never torment people in hell, yet teach that this same loving God is going to kill 99.9% of Earth's population in a very short time.

  you are told as a witness not to put your trust into this system of thing. The wts has stock in phillip morris,own 50% stock in Rand Cam Engine Corp,REG Tech and Rand Energy Group, own 45% Regi U.S. Inc.. These companys build engines for smart war-fighter array of reconfigured modules (SWARM) and a low cost aerial vech (UAV). They are involved in robitic warefare.

  JWs are discouraged from donating to "worldly" charities because they are part of "Satan's system", but a destitute single mother in my hall had to go to a local food bank because the JWs wouldn't help her. Later, when she tried to salvage her marriage with her unbelieving husband and moved back in with him she was DF'd. (they were married, but separated prior to her baptism).

  They will talk to their non JW family but will not talk to their ex JW family.

  They will celebrate the day they were married, but not the days that their children were born.

  The use funerals as an opportunity for preaching, not mourning.

  Why do JWs need magazines to help them interupt the Bible? When Paul wrote his letter to the Romans, for instance, did he send along a "help aid" to interupt what he had written?? Huh??

  They want others to investigate the religion they were born in but discourage its members to do the same.

  They give you hungs and kisses when you first come to meetings but your lazy and a bad person if you stop going to meetings!
