Jehovah's Witnesses Come-a-Knocking - This is how to handle them -VIDEO-

Would YOU go around handing out literature on something you weren't knowledgeable or prepared to discuss?

As someone said above - those women weren't even remotely prepared to discuss religion even on a basic, superficial level. They were lemmings...parroting something someone else has fed them at their JW meetings.

Organized religion relies on people like that - drones devoted to the cause. Cast all logic and intelligent discussion aside - there's pamphlets to be handed out, dammit.

Seriously. Just do as I said. Say you are an apostate.

An apostate, in the terms of the witnesses, is someone who USED to be in 'The Truth' but has openly left the witnesses. Its in their code that an apostate is to be excommunicated by them.

So, by politely stating you are an apostate, it tells them that THEY ARE NOT ALLOWED TO TALK WITH YOU, BY THEIR RULES...

Thats why they leave straight away, and make a note of your address, as an address NOT TO CALL ON... Because if they call, and talk to you, they are breaking thier own rules...

Simples

problem is its not religion for them its all faith. religious guys don't care about history, science its all about faith in BS that preacher tells them.

I grew up in an old school hardcore JW family (My step dad's mom was even one of their "144,000") and I've never heard that term used by them, not to say they don't use it, I've just never heard it.

As far as I remember (it's been 20+ years) the only people who were excommunicated where ones who broke serious JW rules, most of the ones I remember leaving the religion on their own (my mom and stepdad for example) were hounded even more and more often by them to come back.

You're going to burn in a lake of pasta LOL

With respect, I was told to use this approach by a former witness... IT WORKS.

The sad thing here is that there IS no profile. Dawkin's said if best in his book "The God Delusion" that when a large group of people believe in something (spirits, voices, visions,etc.) it is called religion. But when individuals experience the same they are unbalanced or psychotic. It is religions ulitimate defense and they lady in the video even says it to that guy, You're crazy or What you're saying doesn't make sense.

You are what Dawkin's would call a fence sitter. You wouldn't denounce religion for fear of backlash but you wouldn't promote it either for the same reason.

That guy had every right to express his ideas, just like you claim the women did. It is unfortunate that a un-believer knew more about the bible than these two, who should know EVERYTHING about the bible. The one lady summed it up best when she excused her ignorance by saying I believe whatever god says. Sorry, the bible wasn't even written by god, but almighty and fallible man.

That is no different than any other form of blind faith. Look at Hitler, he passed out literature for his cause and beliefs and the end result was the death of some 6 million jews. But when you put 2,000 years behind the same type of ideology and turn a till then polytheistic world into a monotheistic world under 1 god you get present day religion.

Religion has used heresy, ethnic cleansing, differing beliefs, genocide, witch hunts, etc. to murder more people than any war ever fought.

have faith, believe in the flying spaghetti monster. rAmen...hahahaha
