Are JW'S "hated" in all the world? Or...are they considered IRRELEVANT?

    The calculus of JW thinking is tragic. They feel themselves a part of the singular message of importance in the history of mankind while simultaneously being entirely full of wild blueberry muffins on the facts.

    they aren't an eighth as hated as they want to be....looked upon as an oddity perhaps, but you get what you ask for. irrelevant works for me.......

    Basically irrelevant. Legends in their own minds.

    Their outmoded dress code, facial hair prohibitions, etc. makes them appear to outsiders to be stuck in a time warp, increasingly marginalized from society at large

    215, that's the big paradox of all conservative evangelical faiths.

    How do you become a successful and influential global movement whilst simultaneously being marginilized or discriminated against?

    It can't be done.

    IRRELEVANT

    It's only part of their "us vs. them" illusion to further alienate members from non members.

    Most know very little about them other then maybe their blood doctrine. No one hates them but they may poke fun at them in jokes.

    Tiny insignificant sect.

    they say that everyone hates them so that the dubs don't feel bad for hating "worldy" people.

    But in the real world most people don't know who they are or what the fudge they're doing knocking on doors every week.
