Are Your Feelings Hurt By JWs That Come Here And Say Nasty Things?

Some Witnesses come here and try to rebel rouse. Some treat us very harshly and are very judgmental. What do you say to such Witnesses?

No, I see them as victims of a cult and feel sorry for them.

If everyone else could ignore them, I could. But when I see my new friends getting upset, I do try to interject to calm things down. I don't like seeing posters here get upset over JW's who are not here to do anything but hurt us.

However, most JW's who come here I dont' think are like that. But it only takes a noisy minority of one to get everyone riled up and to let out some welled up angst from our JW days against them.

What I would really say IRL would get me banned from the board.

JWs say WE are the bad ones. Some that come here don't act like "True Christians".

One thing I have noticed on this board, the "Witnesses" who have posted here say more hateful things than the "apostates" do.

When you threaten their belief system they bite and snarl like wounded dogs.

Minimus, thats only because JW's are trained to see disagreeing (or looking crosseyed at a Watchtower article) as wrong.

Christians acting like Christ is something an individual can only decide to do anyway. A group, religion, whatever, can't enforce acting like Christ. Not even Jesus did. You either imitate him or you don't. But you sure don't need to advertise it.

Imo, if you have to tell people "HI THERE!! I AM ACTING LIKE JESUS!! LOOK AT MEEEE!!!!" then you aren't a Christian, I don't care what group you belong to.

JW's fail that test miserably, thanks to following the GB.
