A JW made the claim "No Christian [JW] has ever murdered anyone".
When I showed examples of such, the goalposts moved a bit with "was he a baptized, dedicated witness?"
Can anyone provide examples of murders committed by "baptized, dedicated" JWs?
Thanks
With a membership of 8 million, there's no way that there's never been a JW murderer. But that probably won't matter, as the person you're debating with will probably just state that the fact that they committed a murder is evidence that they weren't true christians. The no true scotsman fallacy is often an attractive refuge for someone on the losing side of a battle like this.
Haven't there been some documentaries on this though? I think there's a show called "deadly devotion" that featured a couple JW episodes.
The problem you may have though is that no matter which example you give, it'll be 'but they obviously weren't true JWs because they killed someone". It'll get circular pretty quickly.

Yes of course here's just one ....
A family of Jehovah's Witnesses have been found dead in their South Carolina home after what police say was a shocking murder-suicide.
The bodies of a couple - believed to be Sheddrick and Kia Miller - and their two young children were found Wednesday morning scattered throughout the family's two-story home near Irmo.
Police were called to the home around 10:30 a.m. after man's mother discovered the grim scene.

A JW made the claim "No Christian [JW] has ever murdered anyone".
Deuteronomy 17 .. The Bible commands Christians to kill nonbelievers.
We must remember all those people in the OT were JW, according to JW's today.
So I guess nonbelievers are no body.
