    You may remember my recent experiance with two jw's at my door. They lied non stop to me and even when i pointed out their lies they still did not tell the truth.

    Do they really think that they will win people into their cult by lying to them? don't they think about what will happen when the person finds out they have been lying to them?

    Did anyone here ever lie to someone at the door? And if so why?

    And one final question... Jw's are supposed to not lie, its meant to be a sin remember?

    They are not reasonable because they are told what to believe. It's a really simple way to live and rather carefree to have someone else tell you how to think and what to say to other people. Little drones....

    1 Corinthians 4:6 (New International Version, ©2010)

    6 Now, brothers and sisters, I have applied these things to myself and Apollos for your benefit, so that you may learn from us the meaning of the saying, “Do not go beyond what is written.”

    Organization, blood, beards, oral sex, dates, "generations", observances, school activities, holding your mate while praying at the Kindom Hall.....on and on and on and on and on and on and on............

    They justified it in their minds a long, long time ago. Then they pull people in for 2 meetings a week to pound it into their heads.

    The ends justify the means...

    If they said "Hi. If you don't obey and worship God that way that the responsible spirit-anointed Jehovah's Witness men at the Brooklyn headquarters tell you to, you are going to be destroyed", most people would think JWs are nuts.
