I would go back to them with the RAND CAM financial records from the American SEC which show The Watchtower and Tract society owning the majority of shares in a military company, specifically a NAVY funded company that built stealthy quiet engines for drones and underwater vehicles.
I showed it to my friend, he wrote to bethel and they admitted owning it but claimed they owned it in error.
Next I would show them 'The Decleration of Facts' a famous letter from Rutherford to Hitler that no Jw knows about. simply google it. It was sent as a pamphlet and also written in a yearbook back in the early 20th century. They even apologised for the anti-semitism in a Watchtower article in the 90's, right before they made a claim for some funding from the European holocaust fund.
Here have a taste....
"The greatest and most oppressive empire on earth is the Anglo-American empire. By that is meant the British Empire, of which the United States of America forms a part. It has been the commercial Jews of the British-American empire that have built up and carried on Big Business as a means of exploiting and oppressing the peoples of many nations. This fact particularly applies to the cities of London and New York, the stronghold of Big Business. This fact is so manifest in America that there is a proverb concerning the city of New York which says: 'The Jews own it, the Irish Catholics rule it, and the Americans pay the bills.' We have no fight with any of these persons mentioned, but, as the witnesses for Jehovah and in obedience to his commandment set forth in the Scriptures, we are compelled to call attention to the truth concerning the same in order that the people may be enlightened concerning God and his purpose."
"The present government of Germany has declared emphatically against Big Business oppressors and in opposition to the wrongful religious influence in the political affairs of the nation. Such is exactly our position; and we further state in our literature the reason for the existence of oppressive Big Business and the wrongful political religious influence, because the Holy Scriptures plainly declare that these oppressive instruments proceed from the Devil, and that the complete relief therefrom is God's kingdom under Christ. It is therefore impossible for our literature or our work to in any wise be a danger or a menace to the peace and safety of the state."
"Instead of being against the principles advocated by the government of Germany, we stand squarely for such principles, and point out that Jehovah God through Christ Jesus will bring about the full realization of these principles and will give to the people peace and prosperity and the greatest desire of every honest heart ... A careful examination of our books and literature will disclose the fact that the very high ideals held and promulgated by the present national government are set forth in and endorsed and strongly emphasized in our publications, and show that Jehovah God will see to it that these high ideals in due time will be attained by all persons who love righteousness and who obey the Most High. Instead, therefore, of our literature and our work's being a menace to the principles of the present government we are the strongest supporters of such high ideals."
Many religions preach, some even door to door, but most think going door to door is overtly forward and inefficient. Street preaching and preaching from the pulpit has long been mechanisms of teaching in religions, only now being re-adopted by Watchtower. Watchtower have only had a public orientated magazine for a few years, study editions of the Watchtower and the shallow, patronising Awake have been useless in informing people.
As for pacifism, there are religions built around pacifism.
So there is one religion out there,that preaches constantly and does not go to war. it is ironically and worryingly the closest religion I have seen to the Watchtower. jW's look at this group and know that they share much so pretend to not notice them....The Westboro Baptist Church does not go to war and preaches!
As a JW I was supporting the ultimate war, the ultimate slaughter of most of mankind, by praying for and supporting the idea of a god returning to destroy everyone that didn't bow down. Screw that !
