  Is this a new low?

  just had a couple of jws stop by my house.

  they had been before several times and know that i'm a pretty devout catholic, so i'm sure they were just swinging by to get more time for the card.. well, this time the opening line was about the tragedy in ct. i mean, really?

  you're going to try to get converts by capitalizing on this tragedy?

  it's been a while since i've posted.

  i try to go at it over in yahoo answers but if mental gymnastics were an olympic sport, the jws would sweep the medals.

  Why do the JWs have such an aversion to philosophy?

  by Darth Eowyn in

  i mean, they seem to avoid it like the plague.

  i know people will say that they only need the bible to guide them in life...etc...but i contend that you cannot simply read the bible by yourself; at least without knowing where the philosophical principles contained within the bible come from.

  is this aversion of confusing philosophy with faith way over the head of most jws?

  i have been lurking for a couple of months and decided to join because i wanted to get further information.. i am not a jw, ex jw, or even considering becoming a jw.

  i am a fairly devout, practicing catholic.

  two weeks ago, a couple of jw publishers stopped by to discuss their schtick.
