  every year about around christmas i get a knock on my door from jehovah?s witnesses.

  this is not something i discourage or dislike.

  i believe encouraging debate on important issues is almost frowned on in western culture, and i genuinely enjoy the chance to discuss and learn.

  Having said that, i don't think i've ever come across a more valuable site on the internet, and think you all a bunch of pretty decent folks.

  I'm an open minded person who likes a debate, and was looking forward to discuss ideas with those with different beliefs.

  However, having spent some time reading various posts now, i just feel terribly sad. It?s kind of knocked it out of me.

  I had no idea of the scale of torment and sorrow the JW faith has caused/ing. I'm appauled by it.

  Okay, seems i made a wrong assumption, about what this forum was about.

  Can anyone point me to some topics on this forum that maybe talks about your experiences with the JW faith, more specifically what turned people away from it? Or what drew people to it?

  Hi

  Every year about around Christmas I get a knock on my door from Jehovah?s Witnesses. This is not something I discourage or dislike. I believe encouraging debate on important issues is almost frowned on in western culture, and I genuinely enjoy the chance to discuss and learn.

  To this end I would very much like to continue some form of debate with other Jehovah?s Witnesses as I have many questions and ideas I would like to explore.

  I am an atheist looking to debate some important issues of faith and teachings of the bible. I am NOT looking for anything other than a respectful intellectual sharing of ideas. I?m also not interested in other atheist?s opinions; sorry but a debate is not a bunch of people saying ?yeah, I agree?.

  Ideally I?m appealing to an enthusiastic Jehovah?s Witness who has a little time to spend for a chat.

  Thanks
