The jehovah witness beliefs

Asked by fau 15 days ago, 10 answers.

I am very frustrated by the Jehovah Witness. I have two Jehovah Witnesses come by once a week to talk about their religion, and every question I have they answer with a verse from their bible. They tell me that the only truth is the bible because it is...

the proof that god exists. That the bible is the truth because it was written by man through the holy spirit. Now when I asked about Charles Darwin, they said his theories are just the thoughts of man. But how do they know that the bible wasn't just created by man. They also mentioned a passage in the bible that says people with the power of prediction are hearing the thoughts of the devil and his followers. Now who's to say that the bible wasn't created that way. No one will ever know the truth until we die. I was also told that when the Kingdom of God has come, people will live forever with no sickness or any evils. Every life has to end sometime, how boring would it be to live forever. And when I pointed out that the world would be over populated, they simply said that god would stop the reproduction process. They also stated that even though Catholics, Anglicans etc believe in god (just not referring him to Jehovah) they are still going to be struck down because they teach lies. I'm not against other religions. I personally believe that man was created through evolution, and the world was forged over millions of years. All I want to know is what you think of the Jehovah Witness religion. Whether it be from the Jehovah Witness (I'd like your opinions and answers on the questions I asked above) or from any other people in the world, I'd just like to know.

My dear atheistic friend:

What other people feel about religion, particularly the Jehovahs Witness faith is not important, what is important is that you respect the beliefs of others, which it sounds like you do. However, you do seem annoyed by the Witnessing of this particular sect, therefore, politely decline to engage in conversation with them, or don't answer the door.

I think that noone will know the truth until they die. If there is a god, he shouldn't judge you on your religion, he should judge you on they way you lived your life.

the one and only message that you need to know about God and christianity. FAITH. believing is what gets you into heaven. having faith... as is the same with many religions. most in fact. but as was said earlier, respecting every relgion, and declinging to talk to them are both good things. and if you belive in darwinism, then you have faith in that. which is a good for you.

Simple solution. DO NOT open the door to them. Tell them that you are an atheist and you would appreciate them if they would respect your wishes and your beliefs.

You can always just ask them to leave. If they keep coming by you can even put up a sign. I find door-to-door proseltyzers to be fun to mess with. Remember that they came uninvited so you have no obligation to be polite to them.

You choose to engage in a debate with people who would not change their beliefs with any amount of proof. Have you heard the saying never argue with a fool, they will lower you to their level and then beat you with experience, well in this case, perhaps you need to heed to the general principle. You have one set of beliefs, they have another, as any argument will be struck down with it is God's will (and of course we cannot possibly understand that being lowly humans), you honestly cannot win.

I love how not even the advisers are really answering the question asked, xD its what do you think about, now how can the asker can avoid the people at hes door xD

I have only heard a few jehovah's Witnesses before, it sounds from what you say that they have no respect for others beliefs at all, I do not like any group of people that do that, religion should never be forced on other people like they try to do. If a person wants to hear about another religion they can go look into it, go to church look it up online how ever, they do not need people coming to there door every week. It would bug the heck out of me. I am Wiccan, and a practicing witch so they would most like freak at me. Like many other people have. Some of my closest friends how ever are christian or the like. So don't get me wrong I do not dislike there beliefs, only that they try to put it on to others with out respect for the other persons.

had some Jehovah's at my doorstep, they are nice people but I dont like the way they are telling me that I can't accept my cousins gay lifestyle, my belief in life after death was total fiction and told me that the only book in the history of the world that explains everything was the bible since it was written by the holy spirit which is gods force. Umm.. a force can't write, talk or do anything. The bible was written by man. I think the people are good, but the religion to me is rubbish. Sorry to any jehovah's out there
