It is part of the program. You feel that people do not deserve to live unless they believe in this particular religion--most other religions feel this way, to some degree. (Don't believe it? During the First Dark Ages, either you were a cat lick or you got tortured.) You are taught that your job is to get others into your cancer of a religion, and if they refuse, they are dog s***. And, if you are going to give this religion a fair try, you are probably going to pick up on this.
Unfortunately for them, that did not last with me. I felt that regular people were simply humans. Humans that did bad things, but humans nonetheless (I, like just about everyone else, have done stupid things too). And in due time, I saw that the jokehovians are just as likely to do bad things--giving worthless and harmful advice, double standards, altering the meanings of words to throttle discussion, being just as greedy with money as regular churches even though their exact methods differed, and just plain hypocrisy. I have also seen too many stupid arguments where they argued about a specific doctrine--when they tried involving me, I simply told them to do their own research because I could be just as wrong as them.
