Why do EX-JW's try to argue the bible/doctrine with JW's?
by thedepressedsoul ini've watched a few judicial committee videos on youtube.
they all start out great but eventually the person starts to bring out bible teachings and doctrine.
i understand that 99% of their teachings are complete crap, but to me it's a pointless battle.. as a jw growing up i remember being on countless calls where a jw would argue the trinity with the householder.

Seeds of doubt can be planted regarding doctrine. It really depends upon how adept you are at arguing points. I agree with you somewhat, it is a laborious process. But picking apart doctrine does affect certain JWs. Many have woken up over 587 vs 607, 1914, false prophecy, trinity, Michael vs Jesus, etc. Again it depends on the audience. Yes issues like domestic violence, child sex abuse, blood transfusions, the two witness rule, shunning all are strong points to focus on. Still doctrine is interlaced and generally JWs can only be affected when you start on a common ground of basing all arguments on the Bible. As soon as one discredits or dismisses the Bible as a whole, JWs shut down in 2 seconds flat. -

The court recognized the issues of constitutional conflict when disregarding WT's clergy/penitent claim and denied their motion to dismiss anyway. This is a key case to watch as it climbs through the court. Clergy/penitent privilege has more sway that even attorney/client, doctor/patient privilege and it needs to be challenged. There are huge advocates of clergy/penitent privilege but as these specific cases come to light, their advocacy is being derailed in leaps and bounds. Something has to change. Sexual abuse of children has been allowed to run rampant for far to long and the tides of public opinion are crying out for reform in the courts affording this special C/P privilege. -

LITTLE OLD LADY: "Oh. Well, that's all right, I guess. I'm Baptist. At least we all believe in Jesus. Not like Jehovah's Witnesses." (Here she lowered her voice.) "They're not even Christians, you know. They're a cult."
ME: "I have a friend who's a Jehovah's Witness. He says they are Christian. Maybe it's more a matter of them not believing in the doctrine of the Trinity rather than them not believing in Jesus."
The little old lady was having none of my explanation, however. She repeated her claim that "they're a cult," then proceeded to order her meat loaf and macaroni and cheese. There would be no actual exploration of Jehovah's Witnesses' beliefs, much less a philosophical discussion of who and what define "Christianity." The conversation was over.
