They're just being faithful to what they believe. I don't judge people without knowing them. If anything, their devotion is admirable.

I have a couple of family friends who are Jehova's Witnesses. They came door-knocking at my mothers home a few years ago on a day that my mother was an emotional mess. My mother answered the door to them and burst into tears, one of the Jehova's Witnesses put her arm around my mum and comforted her, she invited them in for coffee and they had a long chat and she has been a friend to my family ever since. This woman in particular is one of the nicest, most non-judgmental people I have ever met. My mum is a bit of a biker-chick and this Jehova's Witness doesn't care about that. She has been a friend to my mum when my mum has really needed a friend and I really appreciate that.

People, just like any other. They believe in what they do and say, and the bible does support what they believe. They have high morals and the very best of intentions, but they are humans, just like you and I, and by nature imperfect. It's NOT some weird cult, or anything like that.

My parents became Jehovah's Witnesses when I was about 7. I thank f.uck that I already had formed my own beliefs and thoughts by this point, because from than up to the age of 17 when I finally said f.uck this, what they attempted on me was nothing short of brainwashing. That religion has fvcked up 4 generations of our family, I have not spoken to my parents or brothers in almost 20 years (The religions and there choice) They can all go get f.ucked. But I don't judge. haha

I admire them for their devotion, but I am not interested in what they have to sell. I had 27 years of crackpot religion, that's enough to last a lifetime.

They totally ruined my childhood,my mother was one and the whole family had to follow suit,we weren't allowed friends outside "the truth" ,i rebelled & made friends in the "real world" & got shunned by my own mother. So my opinion of them is very low!!

not as bad as $cientologists but prone to cultishness, and simplistic fundamentalism - often the people low down in the organization are basically good, but the higher up you go the meaner they often are

As people they are okay, but I don't want religion rammed down my throat. As I said to one who banged on my door, "I work on the railways but I don't knock on your door and tell you to travel by train". To another I told him that "I haven't got much longer time on this planet. Give me your name and I will tell Jehovah you came and saw me".
The Mormons keep coming round as well. Now if I can get their adresses and that of the JW's, I can send them round to each others house.

Religion is the only tool in existence that can turn a perfectly good person into a totally mindless robot. Even take bath salts for example, might cause a person to eat someones face off. Religion can annihilate nations of people, destroy thousands of years of knowledge, cause people to hate even themselves, thoroughly. But few religions can teach young people to hate life so much they march up your doorstep with a smile to tell you about it.

The Scouts knock on my door, politicians knock on my door, it's part of living in a house. If I didn't want anyone knocking I would put up a "No Solicitors" sign. I don't know any Jehovah's Witnesses personally, so I can't say. What I won't do is make broad generalizations about people, especially when it comes to anyone's religious or spiritual beliefs. Religious bigotry is something I absolutely abhor, and have no respect or tolerance for this type of bigot.

I know some Jehovah's Witnesses well. Their son left the movement when he was nineteen. Ten years later he works in the family business and is still close to them. I try to avoid talking about religion with them because we simply cannot agree. I have been to their Kingdom Hall to a wedding. They were very keen to make us welcome and were a little over enthusiastic but I suppose that is understandable. "Live and let live" is my motto.

I got a huge problem with anyone knocking on my door without having been invited first. I don't care if you're a Jehova's Witness, a door-to-door salesman, or a friend who happened to be in the area. I'm hardly ever home, so when I do get there, I don't want anyone bothering me.

You want to get me banned from here ?
I'm agnotic, but have spoken to people of many faiths (nort only Christians) but find the Jehaovahs absolute pains ! When they've come to my door, they never identify themselves - you have to virtually force it out of them ; they simply don't seem to understand 'I am not interested' and I have even had them knock my door again (different member of the same group) within a few minutes after telling one that.
A friend of mine simply tells them he is a Freemason (he is) and invites them to talk about Freemasonry with him ! Apparently they leave rapidly.
