Hi All
Please feel free to contribute any experience you may have on dishonest tricks JWs use to put their fallacious, moronic agenda across. I have not touched upon 'red herrings' and 'circular arguments' below:
The best way to ge through to a JW is to pray for him. He is there to convert you from " Babylon the Great", your FALSE, SATANIC religion to his "TRUTH" so he is trained and primed to defeat you in debate and he will use any logical fallacy to do so. As soon as you challenge him, say, on blood issues, he will change the topic to, say, the Inquisition, based on his knowledge of the comic book representation found in their simplistic treatment, or to the Crusades as if they actually understood History. What is galling is that the time they spend with you is recorded as their service hours in a booklet. However, if they spend time with you that is less time to convert some other unsuspecting bloke!! It's my birthday today and my JW friend sent me the following SMS message: "Are you feeling older today, bro?" THERE IS VERY LITTLE AGREEMENT BETWEEN ME AND THIS CULT AND THUS AFFINITY IS LOW AND SO IS COMMUNICATION AFTER I HAVE REACHED THE QUESTIONS THEY CANNOT ANSWER WITHOUT COMPROMISING THEIR BELIEF SYSTEM. THEY WILL NEVER RETURN TO THESE QUESTIONS FOR WHICH THERE IS NO DEFENCE.
