    I'll try to get them again if they come back!

    LOL.

    I think you live in the territory of my former cong. That would be too funny if it was my sister that called on you.

    Oh yea! I wonder if she would recognize me? It was two men this time - but we'll see who they bring back?! I was in that congregation years ago - but it was only for a short time and when I was younger - I doubt any of them would recognize me now.

    Dawn,

    Have fun with it...( way to go!!)

    But in my experience, knowing the mindset that they have at your door; in their minds they will always be right, and you will always be wrong.

    True But it will be interesting to see their reaction when I hand them stacks of newspaper reports about the pedophilia issue and ask them how they feel about their organization ignoring the risk to children by continuing to enforce a 2 witness rule?!

    Dawn,

    Don't let them know your an Xjw.

    Ask them why they feel only JW are going to be save when there are so many good christians that aren't JW.

    Ask them if it really matters to God if they get all they get the right answer to some Bible quiz, so that they can't get salvation unless they get a perfect score.

    Ask them why they added to the requirement of faith in Jesus, membership in their religion in order to get salvation.

    Don't get into doctrine, just ask questions that will make them think. I wouldn't bring up pedophile issue right away, they will never come back. Make like your interested in what they have to say, but don't quite see the need to join their religion, but would do so if they could help you, let them feel they might be able to convert you if they could just help you over these basic questions.

    Good idea Frankie. They left me a brochure about God's requirements so I'm going to read through it and base my questions from there. Thanks for the feedback!

    Yes, I agree with Frankinspeak - I'd hold off revealing background. Their mental doors will shut fast.
