Personally I don't think one can blanket term all JW's as ignorant, it's a bit like saying all Angicans are homophobes. This could be the collective idicative, but on a personal level I think there must be a better description, as ignorant could be taken as synonimous with dumb, and I couldn't say each individual member is a dummy!

What bugs me most about JW's?
From a religious standpoint: That they deny all but an elite class of members from recieving the body and blood of Christ.
From a secular standpoint: That they deny all but an elite class of members the right to think.

Petespal,
My Oxford Dictionary says, "Ignorant - lacking knowlege,uninformed". I beleive that pretty much sums up all the individual dubs out there . That does not mean stupid or slow witted , I have known some excellent people and worked with elders that I still would admire greatly on a personal level. But If one choses not to read material that has a direct bearing on ones beliefs , then one is wilfully ignorant.
I was ignorant before I became aware of the realities of things. since coming on the net I have found out so much that is verified by genuine sources. At one time I would not have read that material , at one time I would not have read "Crisis of Conscience" but when I did I found out a lot about the Organisation that I had previously served .
What bugs me the most? The Armageddon doctrine , and the fact that I gave them the best 45 years of my life

Now if we asked the question, "What Bugs You The Most About JW's?" to a person who was never a Witness, they might say being bothered by the pests on a Saturday or Sunday morning.

The refusal, in face of unrelenting evidence, to see it for what it is: a corporate whore.

I just hate the preaching work, plus all those redundant meetings!
