Survey: Out of all the doors you went to, how many asked..............
by whyizit incould you estimate how many doors you went to within a year's time, what percentage claimed to be christians, and how many asked good thought-provoking questions?
questions that made you really think and wonder if something was not quite right with the wt.
how important do you think it would be in the lives of jws to have this happen on a more regular basis?

Got any good questions about Blood issue?
by whyizit ina dialogue has opened up between me and a jw friend about their stance on blood.
just wondered if any of you were ever asked a question that made you think twice, or if you have any questions that you think would be good to ask?

When someone asks, "Why should I learn how to effectively talk to JWs?"
by whyizit infrom my own perspective, i have learned so much about how to share my faith and i have gained an enormous amount of patience.
i also have learned how i need to read everything in context, lest i become very confused and be led astray of what the bible is really saying.. i would like to know what reasons you would give for people to learn how to effectively witness to jehovah's witnesses?
and how many people, in the time frame that you were an active jw, asked the right questions while you were a jw?

Advice, please! Concerning the 2 witness rule
by whyizit inmy friend, who is not yet baptised in the wt, but is well on her way and very defensive of the wt, kind of led me into a conversation about how there has to be two witnesses for immoral acts, etc....(i guess someone recently got caught with another guy's wife, and it took a little detective work, because there has to be 2 witnesses.
) i brought up child molestors.
what does the wt do in those cases?
