    I know that all religions have their flaws, so do you agree that witnesses should call themselves Christians or are they 'too un-christian'?

    The baptism, i think proves its different, they are baptized into an Organization, that forms part of the questions...agreeing that the Society is God's earthly representation.

    Personally i feel they are not Christians.

    I always think of them as a cult hiding behind the Bible.

    In the strictest sense of the term, Christian, I consider JWs Christians. They consider themselves Christians. Other people do too. In the end, it is how people live their daily lives that determines whether they are Christians, not the religious group they belong to.

    In my opinion I believe that they are taught to be more Christlike then any other religion. Notice i said taught. The reality is that many do not adhere to the teachings which is not uncommon for any religion.

    I would say so. The kinder ones display many of the qualities you would look for in Christians.

    They have a differrent way of interpreting the bible to other denominations, but that doesn't make them wrong, just differrent.
