You handled this very well.
I've had dozens of debates with active witnesses and this is a common theme to all of them. They value what they DO and not what they TEACH. So the reason why they are the true religion is always what they DO : preaching, keeping the congregation clean, not participating in worldly things.
No other religion works solely off of voluntary donations. No other religion goes door-to-door like Jesus commanded us to do. No other religion is doing the grand preaching work that Jesus said would be done before the end would come, Matthew 24:14.
None of this is true of course. And when you started debunking these points, he switched to the magazines.
We have the largest circulating magazine in the world and the 3rd for that matter.
And exactly how is this evidence that they are the true religion? How many non-JW actually read the magazines? Nobody knows but the number is likely incredibly small, so how is that helping this preaching that seems to be so important? No wonder that there are only 7 million JWs in the world.
Well here are a couple of things…Mormons participate in politics, warfare and holidays
Yes, and since the bible doesn't say this is imcompatible with christianity, you have to use circular reasoning to use this argument.
