Why do they still call COs Circuit Servants in Canada?

nobody told me

Why is taking fractions of blood ok? and how is that still abstaining from blood?

How come the Watchtower does not pay taxes in France, when the Bible clearly says to pay Ceasar's things to Ceaser and the tax to those who call for the tax?

During the decade they were members of the UN, why did the leader articles of the magazines (the ones designed to catch the attention of the public) speak of the UN in moderate, neutral terms, or on occasion even extolling their virtues, while in four study articles the UN was called 'disgusting,' the image of the beast and fundamentally no use to anyone?

Did the bible students in 1914 know that some of them would not receive the heavenly hope, as they had earnestly preached up to that time? Were the bible students in 1914 preaching a false hope?

I think one of the best questions you can ask them is one Shotgun brought up in another thread (which, btw, you might want to look at for more ideas): http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/12/64494/993615/post.ashx#993615

I've had several elder visits. This is a question which after it was asked caused each and every elder to never mention it again because they cannot answer it. JW's use Luke 21:23 to justify the date 1914 saying that the end of the Gentile times happened in 1914. The verses plainly state that the end of the gentile times happens after the last days and brings the great tribulation to its end.

Then I ask them if individual bible writers put events in order or put them out of sequence so that we could try to fit it together. They usually say they put things in order.
Read Luke 21 together from verse 7 to 23
I asked what is the sequence in Luke 21...... last days , Great Tribulation, end of Gentile times they said yes thats right. So I said if The Gentile times ended in 1914 why do we say the last days began after 1914 which is clearly different from the sequence given in Luke and Matthew.
Its also interesting to point out that Russell and Rutherford had both taught that the last days began in 1799, that Christ returned in 1874, that the great tribulation would happen before 1914 and the gentile times would happen in 1914 bringing the destruction to an end. This line of reasoning was not dropped until the late twenties.
Good luck

oh, and they'll start getting mad that you don't accept that god has had a government in place all throughout time. its quite funny actually because moses didnt' have a government, he just had law to convey then he was done. israelites lived in peace for 350 years ( i tink it was the israelites ) without any direction from anybody. i have a report somewhere that i need to post, because its acutally kinda helpful.

the israelites had judges in that time. whereas the modern-day israelite class had 'judge' rutherford. so what you talk about has a modern-day application.
