    What goes through a JW mind when they're sitting in a home with two 8x10 pictures of Christ hanging from the wall?

    Anything? Do they care?

    They recoil inwardly - not realising they have been taught to reject Jesus and the message about him.

    When I had some local Witnesses drop by b/c I was too lazy to write to the appropriate Bethel dept trashcan, I thought nothing of my decor. Once they left, I noticed icons, crosses, Beatles, Dylan, images. New Yorker covers. No mercy for me.

    Only the Jesus in a Wt. Calendar was appropriate.

    Yes, they would be very uncomfortable. I know my mom felt very strongly when a relative kept talking about the LORD....the lord this, the lord that. After she left my mom mocked her....she did not like that kind of talk one bit...............but some JW's can't go one sentence without saying Jehovah.

    Which one sounds more like Paul in the NT ? Every JW I've asked " JW's don't speak that much about Jesus do they ? " 6 or 7 all had the same answer " Oh yes we do, we pray all prayers through Jesus name " They ALL said the same thing...lol SAD In Jesus name amen...that is enough talk about Jesus.

    They don't mind the nice clean cut Jesus in the WT picture, but the one on most peoples wall is a long haired hippy dude. They KNOW Jesus shaved his neck, and trimed his SHORT beard everyday. He also got a nice haircut every 4 weeks.
