Bleep, I stayed on topic and I gave you a very direct challenge, to wit, prove that there is a higher percent of pedophiles in other religions. You are like the writings in your literature - a lot of assertions, very little evidence. I don't think you can comprehend how ignorant WT literature and your comments look to us who have moved on, developed critical thinking skills, and educated ourselves beyond the very narrow world you live in.
Many more pedaphiles in the churches with reason

Where there is a will there is a way. The churches abuse power far more than the Kingdom Hall can ever do. They have shown favor over military might. They have supported this doctrine of celebacy. The list goes on and on. They try to take out prayer for individuals and would rather have people confess sins to these so called holy ones. No one of us have that position of being holy except God and his angels.

Bleep can't answer direct questions, or come up with the evidence you seek Larc. You know better....Bleep is the typical "Self Righteous-Intollerant-Elite-Bigot" aka Jehovah Witnesses. They have the "pure language" remember? It consists of:
Blah blah blah, misdirect blah blah blah, lie. Blah blah misinform blah. Blah blah omit Blah blah slur other religions Blah blah blah Jehovah is only on our side blah blah blah everyone else is of satan blah blah.
They are a "simple minded". One can have a great wealth of intelligence, but posses a "simple mind".

I dont have to look very far to know who Gods people are.
How do I know they are?:
Those that take time every week to learn about Gods requirements and fundamental principles would help.
Not going to war could be a big part of being Gods chosen ones and being like preciouse jems. There were a few good people like Job that were blessed with health and riches.
Being united and having the same meetings throughout the earth. All this being a free service. You dont see our elders or speekers making a huge profit for services.
Its just so sad to see Exjws trying to come up with something better and spending way too much time finding fault with the rightious. Puts me to mind of Satan trying to make me cry over spilled milk if I do something bad. Jehovah will forgive if you want it.
Good Bye all and have a good summer.
Ps. Try not to cry over spilled milk.

Bleep, in the Bible, the Lord has on many occasions helped his people kill their enemies in time of war. Obvioulsy if the Lord is helping out, he cannot be against War.

Bleep,
Thank you for again, demonstrating my "Self Righteous-Intollerant-Elitist-Bigot" definition has merit.
You, like many JW's are a "predictable" lot. And the few JW's and X-JW's that challenge and question, those are the ones I love running in to, fascinating people. Too bad you will always remain within the "box", at least you came here and decided to create a "window" to look out of.

Many flashes of light have pertained to Christian conduct. For instance, consider the matter of neutrality. A particularly bright flash of light beamed forth on this subject in the article "Neutrality" appearing in The Watchtower of November 1, 1939. How timely it was, coming just after the beginning of World War II! The article defined neutrality and showed that Christians must not get involved in political affairs or confrontations between nations. (Micah 4:3, 5; John 17:14, 16) This is a factor in their being hated by all the nations. (Matthew 24:9) The battles of ancient Israel provide no precedent for Christians, as Jesus makes plain at Matthew 26:52. Moreover, not one political nation today is a theocracy, ruled by God, as was ancient Israel.

The subject is about the other churches haveing more of a reason or motive to child molest.
So what you are really saying is that, Jehovah's Witnesses molest children despite the fact that they have less reason or motive to do so. So, I guess that means, they just do it because it is evil and pleasing to their god, Satan.

Except that the Watchtower's position on "neutrality" has no basis in the scriptures, except for scriptures twisted and taken out of context.
In John 17:14-16, Jesus declares that his followers are "no part of the world," even as he is "no part of the world." However, the context does not indicate in any way that these words are a reference to involvement in government and politics. Rather, Jesus appears to be talking about the sinfulness of the world, and is asking God to protect his followers from succumbing to it. He speaks of his "protecting" them and of their being "sanctified".
Meanwhile, Israel as a nation fought in wars, and was still approved by God. There is no indication in scripture that Cornelius ceased to serve as a Roman soldier after his conversion. Paul used military illustrations on several occasions in his writing, an odd thing to do if military service was a grave sin. Paul also told us in Romans 13 to be obedient to the civil authorities, and that they were placed in their relative positions (not merely allowed to exist or tolerated) by God. And, in 2 Tim. 1,2, he tells us to pray for these kings and other authorities. All of this conflicts with the Watchtower teaching of complete neutrality, and, really, there is not one scripture in the Bible that supports that teaching.
At Matthew 26:52 (which you have taken out of context, as expected from a JW), jesus is counseling Peter as to his course of conduct on that specific occasion. Bible prophecies were being fulfilled on that occasion, and Jesus meant to allow them to run their course without armed interference from his supporters. On another occasion, he counseled his followers to take up swords as they went forth (Luke 22:35-38). So he was speaking to the specific occasion, not stating an eternal principle.
