Ask one of Jehovah's Witnesses

Ask one of Jehovah's Witnesses
I am curious if anyone here has questions for me as one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I am on the fence with what I believe but I still ponder my beliefs everyday. We don't believe that we go to heaven after we die, the trinity, hell fire and we're politically neutral. So as far as the last one, we're at least one religion that doesn't meddle in politics. Maybe that doesn't seem like a big deal since we're only about 1 million in the US, but could you imagine if a political party had 1 million active door to door campaigners for their cause?

Why do you refuse blood transfusions when the bible just says don't drink blood or eat raw meat?

Discouraging Jehovah Witness kids from going to college doesn't seem to be a widely known belief. If more Americans knew, would it make it even harder to recruit ?
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

How many unsuspecting Jehovah's witnesses' children have been sent to their deaths after they knocked on the wrong door?

I really want to know.
I reject your reality and substitute my own!

Do JW's really think Jeebus died on a stick? My inlaw is one and told me that factoid.

What is your name?

What is your quest?

What is your favourite colour?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Why would any one be a JW, if heaven is most likely full already?

Why does the JW movement have the same initials as my mum?

RE: Ask one of Jehovah's Witnesses
I've found the Jehovah Witness emphasis on bible study and bible adherence at odds with their practice of sending women out to witness to men. This, as you should be aware, is prohibited in both the old and new testament. Since your denomination is clearly wrong about that stricture, why should I listen to any Jehovah Witness blasphemers who come to my door ??
