    Hi!

    While I'm not a Jehovah's Witness, I am doing a research paper on the topic. I would like a first-hand source if possible. I'm not here to be judgemental, I am only going to be asking fundamental questions in regards to beliefs and origins. If there is anyone particularly open, it would be awesome to get someone to speak/answer questions in front of a group of 6 or 7 people, but that's not necessary. If you are interested in speaking in person, make sure you are in the Orange County, CA area. Thanks so much for taking the time to read this!!

    Except for a few JWs that still attend but would like to leave, we are ex-JWs here. That may have some bearing on input from here. We can be honest and provide any quotes from WT literature if you want.

    If you want a JW to speak before a class or a similar situation, they will generally be happy to oblige; just call your local Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses.

    Of course, whoever they send will undoubtedly spout the party-line whitewash, so if you're actually looking to do an objective research paper, I would definitely suggest talking to both sides.

    Yeah, what Euph said.

    The time they spend with you will be counted in their yearly report on their ministry work too.

    It should be noted however, that the Governing Body of Jehovah's Witnesses do not endorse public debates any longer. So you would have to have a current JW one time and an ex JW a different time.
