A Jahovas witness knocked on my door. I answer it in my dressing gown. He says,
"I'm sorry have I caught you at a good time?" "Pretty good, I was having sex." "Are you maried sir?" I look at him as if he is stupid and say "To a goat?" His face drops, I close the door.
Money pyramids are bad enough, but a religion pyramid, please.

i worked with some Jehovehs Witnesses.... the ones i worked with were the laziest, most ignorant people i have ever meet.
their mentality was... why work?... you are already saved, god loves you just the way you are.... why learn anything?, the bible is all you need... why would god allow Witnesses to misinterpret the bible, however they interpret the bible must be correct because they are good christians... do you catch that self-fulfilling logic?

Yep, that's true.
A lot of the old testament stuff seems quite barbaric in comparison to what the new testament teaches.
Did you know if a Jehovahs witness accepts a blood transfusion or allows their children to have one the are often excommunicated? As their social as well as work and spiritual life centre around the organisation they feel completely isolated. The are sometimes driven to suicide by this. So much for them understanding the concept of forgiveness.

What I resent about Jehovah's witnesses is they -and every other lunatic fringe organisation -call themselves Christians yet hold view that directly contradict Christian/Biblical teaching on many different issues. This wouldn't be a problem, but they give real Christians a bad reputation. If you say you're a Christian people automatically link you to these stupid zealots.
