jehovah's witnesses

Words fail me. Jehovah's Witnesses at my door gave me a pamphlet about the coming destruction of the planet earth. Apostles are apparently going to burn alive but Jehovah's Witnesses are going to be protected and given a restored earthly paradise. This kind of flies in the face of a Supreme...

Jehovah Yesterday evening a couple of middle aged women knocked upon my door. As members can appreciate, I am in a particular mode right now so I took the opportunity to engage with these women claiming to be witnessing Jehovah and find out a little more as to their agenda related to being...

I have not examined the offending issue of The Watchtower myself in detail, but this article from The Independent interested me; it's an excellent example of the siege mentality of certain religious sects and their fear of difference, especially those who've gotten over their beliefs. FYI the...

I recently had a visit from two ladies. It turned out that they were from the Jehovah’s Witnesses. Sadly, as I had just returned from a trip to the USA, and a long drive from Heathrow to get home, I really wasn’t in the mood for disputing religious beliefs. Normally, I might have enjoyed the...

So a couple of days ago some Jehovah Witnesses left some literature for me at my door when I wasn't home. I just now saw that one of them was on atheism and thought "this should be good." Atheists On A Crusade A new group of atheists has arisen in society. Called the "new atheists," they are...

So a pair of Jehovah's Witnesses came to my door to preach their silliness a few days ago, and as usual, I welcomed the discussion. They talked about how Islam was all about violence and then pointed to a passage in the Bible that talked about how God's Kingdom would crush all other kingdoms...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/west_midlands/8690785.stm The parents surely should face manslaughter charges at least. How do they get away with it? EVen adults who refuse treatment on religious grounds,aren't they comitting assisted suicide of sorts(medical staff not treating them...

Hi, all! I'm in the middle of an e-mail discussion with a relative of mine who is one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Her latest mail said the following (paraphrase + translation): "I have been thinking a lot about what you said recently. We just got a new DVD about creation that is very...

What do Jehovah's Witnesses do or say when Mormons come knocking on their door? And what do Mormons do or say when Jehovah's Witnesses come knocking on their door? This may sound like a joke thread, but I'm genuinely interested.

Two Jehovah’s Witnesses come knocking at my door, we discuss faith and what the bible says about killing, slavery, homosexuality, and more. I bring up Flying Spaghetti Monster and hilarity ensues. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvYaOIlFMqw My wife thinks I went a bit overboard, but I was trying...

From: BBC News This enrages me. Some sanctimonious, Bible-thumping "spokesman" for this evil, twisted little cult is currently making a case for the refusal of transfusions on Biblical grounds, and I want to shake him by the lapels. I lived with a JW for a while, and it was her tortious take...

See the BBC. I'm no "hangin's too good fer 'em" type, not by a long chalk, but abuse of 13 young children over a period of years by someone in a position of power (over them) seems like it deserves more than community bloody service.

Partially because of the note in this weeks SWIFT bulletin, and partially because I sometimes do these things to try to stimulate my brain, I just paid a visit to the Official Jehovah's Witness website, watchtower.org, to check out the newer articles. I enjoy reading the more "scientific"...

In a Newsweek article this week, they have an article on the Jehovah's Witnesses and a PBS documentary that shown on the 22nd called "Knocking". Wish I read the article sooner, I might have watched it. Then again, PBS will probably rebroadcast this at a later date. Just looked, the local...

A few weeks ago I was doing some yard work and a pair of Jehovah's Witnesses stopped by. They were canvassing my neighborhood on a Saturday morning. A teenaged boy began talkiing about their church but after finding out I am an atheist the older gentleman took over. We talked politely for about...

Here is an interesting case decided recently by the Iowa Supreme Court. To be clear what happened here, a patient is suing a doctor for "negligence, failure to obtain informed consent, breach of contract, medical battery, and invasion of privacy" because he was reinsfused with some of his own...

I had two of that "Kingdon Hall" witnessing crowd show up uninvited at my front door again Saturday. I pretended to have been rousted from a deep sleep and opened my door nude while rubbing my eyes and yawning. That seemed to work. Does anyone have any more creative ideas if another pair...
