someone asked columnist phillip milano of the jacksonville, florida times union this very question.

you will find remarks of several individuals and the reasons they offer, ranging from deterrence to vandalism, to saving on air conditioning bills, etc.

even j.r. brown gives his two-cents worth and replies to critic paul blizzard.. http://www.jacksonville.com/tu-online/stories/080106/enm_4104779.shtml

Parking lot encounter, but not with JW's...
by DesertRat in
1. jw
2. friends
yesterday (monday) while getting out of my car in a supermarket parking lot, i was approached by two well-dressed young men carrying bibles.

at the first instant i froze, thinking that they were 'you-know-whos.

' it should have occurred to me right then, from the fact that both were wearing white shirts, black ties, & name tags, that i was not dealing with jw's.. my immediate response was to say that i was not interested but thanks anyway.

Jesus - WHERE is he?!! Survey
by hamsterbait in
1. watchtower
2. bible
blondie has repeatedly asked in her item on the wt study "where is jesus?".

since the wtbts claims to be christian, you could reasonably expect such an organization to talk about jesus could you not?.

for all jws, and others - start counting how often jesus is mentioned at the meetings.
