I mentioned I had been doing a lot of research on the JW CD Rom. She asked how I obtained that as it was only available for JWs and otherwise illegal to obtain.
Oh really? When did it become illegal to obtain spiritual food?
She started explaining how only JWs did the door to door work and she got really defensive when I discussed issues about that. She told me how effective it was and I explained how she was using the wrong word to describe it.
Effective? Try this. take the number of hours of preaching for a year, and divide by the number of baptisms. You will find that it varies from one place to another, but it usually takes about 4-6 thousand hours of preaching to get one person baptised. Am I to beleive this is efective?
I mentioned about the number of times Armageddon had been predicted, of course she explained 1975 as being interpretations of some JWs only and it was a weeding out time.
That's strange. I keep reading many times in the literature how one of the proof that the society is God's organization is the unity, that everyone believes the same thing. Now you are telling me that some JWs believe one thing, while others believe different. Which is it, JWs have unity or only some JWs believed that? It can't be that both are true. Please explain.
I know how to talk to them too. It is good to get them sputtering and reaching for an absurd explanation as their cult personality short circuits for a moment. If enough householders did this in a friendly, non confrontational way, I am sure the religion would either dry up, or the GB would get new light and ban the door to door work.
