They claim their schools, literature and teaching are far more superior than any "worldly" education. How would you counter that belief?

Their theological knowledge is practically nil.all the jw literature says the same thing, worship the 8 window cleaners.

Superior in what respect? Breadth of knowledge, "spirituality"? How might a superior "spiritual" education be measured? Higher morals? If JW's have just as many divorces as the general population, what exactly are their "superior" morals getting them?
On breadth of knowledge it's a slam-dunk. They don't and can't match college education.

You could always ask them:
"Where was your:
- Primary care doctor
- Eye doctor
- Dentist
- Accountant
- Lawyer
- Financial Advisor
educated?"
It would be surprising if JWs made up any of the roles on that list. Then ask them:
"If JWs are the most/best educated in the world, why don't you have JWs perform all those duties for you instead?"

How are schools accredited? There are standards. Written down. Why aren't the WTS schools accredited?
