The site you reference tries to appeal to JWs with alternate religious teaching....the blind leading the blind.

It seems like a clear answer to me: JWs have left other religions or have been born into the JW faith. Trying to persuade them to join another religions would seem like the least probable approach of getting through to them.

Belief is Absurd
by IronGland ini am beginning to wonder if there is some kind of physical brain wiring that makes some people more likely to accept religion, even when believing in a certain supernatural paradigm presents numerous absurdities.
christians seem to be able to convince themselves of the following: .
) the god described in the bible is real, yet the god(s) of other religions are not (a variation: other religions are satanic deceptions).

SUICIDE. Thinking About It? Read This First...
by Derrick inare you someone who feels really depressed right now?
many in my congregation are suffering from chronic depression including several elders who have families.
i'm thankful that every time the thought of suicide entered my mind, triggered by various occasions over the last 25 years, i found the strength to push these thoughts aside.

If you believe in a loving God then suicide is a solution.

Rem,
Thanks for the acknowledgement. One of the great things we do where I work at is something called "inquiry review". It works as follows:
When someone gives a presentation the audience is encouraged to participate in "inquiry review". Normally, our first reaction after a presentation is to want to immediately question the presentation. Where I work you have to first earn the right to question the presentation by specifiying what you enjoyed about the presentation and then only can one ask questions. As an xJW we are so cynical and we question everything - trust nothing - hence we are so quick to pounce on the viewpoints of another. I know I am guilty of that nearly every day but I have found that engaging in - and being forced to engage in "inquiry review" after sitting through presentations at work I now look for the positive in those presentations.
So thanks for your response - it reminded me of that.
Getting back on key here - my personal view is that God was conceived to explain that which science couldn't. Now that science is progressing to the point where is "touching" on areas previously reserved for "god" one wonders if all god will be good for is to explain death and cope with death.

I have a lack of belief in gods. I am an atheist.
I am not an agnostic. As Robert Green Ingersoll said that agnostics are atheists seeking social acceptance. All agnostics are either theistic or atheistic - you either believe in God/s or you don't.
