will jehovahs witnesses make me a permanant "do not call "
by looloo in2 nice ladys called on me the other day , as one started her "speach" the other one looked embarresed , i interupted and said to the embarresed one "you know why im not interested in your religion ,dont you " she replied "yes im sorry i couldnt rember which one you lived in " (i had met her at my door some months ago , and explained that my daughter was raped as a child by a man i had met at the kingdom hall , and some jws support him despite him abusing other jws etc , i had told of the paedpphile problem in the religion and my jw inlaws dont visit my little girl because her daddy is a disfellowshipped man , which i think is very unchristian) the other lady then started admiring my dress , then my little girl appeared and she said how pretty she was etc, i said goodbye and closed the door , i wish i had heard what the 2nd lady had said to her friend in explanation for why i was not interested !
the annoying thing is my little girl then wanted to know who they are and what did they want to talk about , so i explained they were in "that religion that grandma is in "that stops her coming to see daddy , which upset her , then hubby came back from work later in a good mood untill i told him of the visit that had upset our little girl and then he was moody with me and said "dont talk to them again , next time tell them to be made a "do not call " for ever and never ever review it !is it possible to do that in our situation ?
i dont want my family life upset .

How come witnesses can seem to be very friendly to the uninformed worldlies?
by dgp ini know that jehovah's witnesses are told not to be part of the world and not to have worldly friends.
i know that some witnesses do have friends.
but, what i'm curious about is how a witness could sustain polite and seemingly friendly interaction with worldlies and at the same time feel that these are not people s/he should befriend.

NEW YEAR STRATEGY: CHOOSE your BATTLEGROUND carefully!
by Terry inabraham lincoln was once challenged to a duel to the death when he offended somebody.. as the one challenged, it was his right to pick the weapons and the place of battle.. lincoln's challenger was a short fellow and an expert marksman.
don't fight in magic land.. .
no, not their interpretation---the bible itself!.

Exposing the WT Affair with the UN - 9/11/11 Call to Action!
by Timothy Riches inalthough many ex-jehovah's witnesses know about the watchtower's secret 10 year affair with the united nations, the vast majority of jehovah's witnesses do not know.
on sunday september 11, 2011, we plan to let them know about it!
there was never a formal disclosure to jehovah's witnesses at meetings or in wt literature or letters telling the jw's about the affair.

Protecting Children Is In The Public Interest
by DT inif you haven't heard the latest about the prosecution of the watchtower society in australia, please check out these threads.. http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/scandals/222044/2/governing-body-of-jehovahe28099s-witnesses-to-escape-judgment-for-crimes-against-the-children.
http://www.jehovahs-witness.net/watchtower/scandals/222048/1/we-need-to-e-mail-the-prosecutor-right-now.
i resent the suggestion that enforcing a law that is designed to protect children is "not in the public interest".

Preparing Scriptural Defenses Against WTBTS
by Band on the Run ini am curious whether most people here believe that they need to memorize biblical proofs against wtbts teachings the way they did as a witness.
my concern is that for someone out for decades, i may read the bible too much.
i am drawn to it almost unnaturally as for me it is the best proof the witnesses lied and willfully misinterpreted.
