Ask them how they feel apostates are to be treated....then.. Ask them if they know the parable of the Good Samaritan. Ask if they understand why the Jews and Samaritans hated each other so much. Chances are they won't. The parable is so powerful, not because the Samaritan was a "non-jew" or vice versa. That would'nt have been a problem, either Jew or Samaritan would've likely helped a Pagan. No, they are both sects of Judaism, who violently viewed one another as, get this.........APOSTATES!!!

VOTE YOUR "SILVER BULLET" QUESTION
by V ini'm quizzing all my sources for the ultimate "silver-bullet" question for a jw at your door.
the best questions will be used in a video series on watchtower comments.
the goal is to help people respond to jws.. the question must be direct and designed to open the jw mind, not necessarily to win an argument.. i would prefer to avoid doctrinal debate such as trinity, cross, even thiest/athiest subjects.

Euthanasia?
by MegaDude inanyone against euthanasia if you are sick with a terminal disease and you don't wish to die a protracted death?.
i have thought about this a lot since a coworker's grandfather here in the u.s., dying painfully of cancer, drove around and saw his relatives one final time and then killed himself.
they found him in a car by the side of the road.

I think if you want to ban it, etc., fine, but go spend the day with hospice, in a cancer ward, etc. first. Then decide. When it was on the ballot in OR, i asked everyone who was against it if they'd ever had to take care of a terminal patient, to a one they said no.

So, BTS, what is your view on the catholic church having missions that specifically aid illegal immigrants coming into this country? Illegals who are about 90% catholic, and send a good portion of the money they make back to huge families they can't support due to the catholic ban on birth control? Families, that, i'm sure, put alot of those US dollars back into church coffers?
