  Preaching Work is unique identifier

  several conversations with current jw's have thrown up this validation of their faith.

  i can think of several lines of refutation: .

  1 - ask 'is increase proof of gods blessing?

  In my experience - as soon as you point out that others preach, they dismiss it and say "yes but what do they preach" and the whole discussion is now about the CONTENT of the message not the actual preaching work.

  That's why I'd agree with them.

  Might as well discuss what they really mean instead of wasting time on a straw man.

  I'd agree with them.

  They ARE the ONLY ones who preach their unique message.

  It proves that they are the ONLY ones who are followers of the WTBS. NOTHING MORE

  Lots of other people preach in lots of different ways.

  Try googling "Missionary Societies"

  JWs assume nobody else is preaching "Their Message" out of ignorance, or reject and refuse to preach it out of stubborness and in defiance of God.

  In reality it's because every other group has rejected it because they see the errors in the JW message.

  Most of the doctrinal differences are thousands of years old and were addressed centuries age.

  . . . but we all know WTS is bad at history

  For UK posters.

  I'm just finishing a 14 day free trial with Tesco.

  Unlimited DVDs, 2 at home at any time £11.99 (£8.99 if you pay the year up front!)

  It's really good - very impressed.

  2 day turnaround.

  Just slightly bugs me that Tesco is taking over the world

  Why they won't try again...

  i have spoken to two jw's today's who are well acquainted with my non-conformist stand and absence from the meetings.

  much difference in their readjustment approach <emotional v logical> but they shared this in common: .

  they both explicitly refused my invitation to pursue the conversation to another session - both said they saw no basis for 'getting anywhere' and didn't see the point of endless conversations...i accept that but also think... .

  ROFL @ Marcel

  So true.

  A JW discussion is:

  • They speak The Truth AT you
  • They press Mute and smile politely while the receipient speaks
  • When they see the listeners lips stop moving they switch the sound back on
  • Repeat point 1.

  Scully that was awesome

  Best I can do is the time I unfortunately (for her) joined the same check out queue as the woman who studied with my wife (as in my wife was the study)

  Realising she was pretty much trapped there with my shopping on the conveyor, I said "hi Margaret." She ignored me but I just said louder HI MARGARET

  Eventually she said hello begrudgingly. But she then began to my little girl up and down (about 5 at the time) like she was a piece of dirt.

  That really pissed me off. I was trying to thing of something really cutting to say to her in my annoyance.

  She paid for her shopping and as she walked off in silence I called "Margaret"

  She didn't turn but she paused for a fraction.

  As she did I said " . . . God bless"

  I might as well have stuck a knife in her back.

  It felt great.
