  I ran them off !

  the witnesses came to my complex today, this time it was two very good looking women.

  i walked up to them and calmly said that this is the second warning that they were trespassing on my property and that no jehovah's witnesses are aloud on this property knocking on doors.

  i have a tenant who is a jw and this is fine with me and they are aloud to come and visit her but i do not allow them to bother my tenants as they all prefer they stay away anyways.

  And I will add that my anger is not so much with the people of this cult organisation but against those who teach their lies. The Society themselves.

  LOL I'm not a bad guy either but I sure felt bad when I scared them. (GOOD BAD)

  Well, I am wondering what kind of a person you truly want to be. Did you feel good about yourself? What you displayed to me was bad manners to ladies. I never have thought there was a time or place for that. That is surely not the way Jesus treated people; rather, even if they were less than kind to him, he treated them with respect and dignity.

  I am wondering why you would think that your tenants cannot speak for themselves? Do you feel that they do not have the intelligence necessary to to think for themselves? If necessary, you could print up a flier and outline the teachings of Jehovah's Witnesses, some that they may not be aware of. This would arm them beforehand so that they could be ready for the witnesses when they come. That way, not only would you be making your tenants informed, but perhaps they could impart some of the "new" information to the witnesses when they came. If I was in your complex and a priest came, or Mormans, or any organization, I would want to make my own decision as to whether I wanted to speak to them.

  At any rate, I never feel that bad manners make anyone look amusing or gentlemanly. If anything, they make me think of Pharisees and elders who assume that they have the God given authority to treat people any way they please. This is the main reason I and many others left the organization--because of unloving treatment

  Quandry,

  You have no idea what I went through with the Jehovahs Witnesses in my past and I am here to tell you that I have damn good reason for my anger. So you have no room to judge my actions and if you were in my shoes I'll just bet your actions might not be much different than mine. My tenants tell me that they are glad that I keep them away from our doors so it is not all bad. Further more I did not show those ladies any anger or bitterness I just politely told them they were trespassing and that the next time I would call the police.

  So don't tell me how much of an ass I was because I was not being an ass I just don't want them on my property ! Simply put...

  I am sure they know my vehicle, they will probably just wait till I am gone then try it again. This has happened in the past after my first warning. Lots of good ideas posted here and a few I will not do. There are no posted signs but I think I scared the living hell out of those two women. LOL I'm not a bad guy either but I sure felt bad when I scared them. (GOOD BAD)

  And remember that these gross people open the door using the same handle that you will when you leave.

  Thats why I use the towel I dried my hands off with to open the door, because I heard that only one in six wash their hands after using the bathroom.

My tenants love me for the fact I chase them off. LOL But I told them next time I was just going to call the police and have them arrested.

  Do you think they will stay away now ?

  my grandmother and grandfather are both jehovah's witnesses.. i dont understand much about their religion just that they dont celebrate holidays such as christmas.. well today i went over to their house for a visit since they live 2 hours away and my cousins were there too.. we were all in the kitchen eating cookies and my brother said that we baked cookies but ours were for santa clause.

  well then my grandma said that she doesnt celebrate christmas and she doesnt believe in santa.

  so i say "well i do" and she says "well that means youre naiive and decieved".

  Whoa unto them who judge with an un pure heart. I know just how you feel as I have been told some of the same in my past. Yeah it hurts but you know what ? You know yourself that it is not true and thats all that counts. It really does not matter what others think about you it's what you think about yourself that matters.

  What would have been your answer?

  by Triple A in

  2. beliefs

  what would you have answered or what would have been your reaction to the following?.

  while discussing the trinity, you as the jw said that the word trinity is not in the bible.. the non-jw responds, well you believe in a theocracy or theocratic organization.

  show me where in the bible that word appears.. .

  My friend mentioned a question that she used to good effect. She asked a jw the question: "Since Jesus told you to keep celebrating the memorial until he returned, why didn't you stop doing it when he returned in 1914?"

  Thats a great question to a JW I will use that one the next time.

  The S35 is the one I bought for a beginner. I have now up graded it and bought the Estaban cut away classic. But the S35 Takamine is not a bad guitar at all I am going to keep mine so I can have a beater for the camp grounds etc.
