I live 10 minutes walk from a Kingdom Hall, in the (almost) 2 years i have lived here no JW has ever knocked on my door. One once sneaked up and slid a leaflet onto my porch, i was in and the door was open but he didn't say hello. A few weeks ago i had two non-denominational Christians knock on my door for a chat.

Christ's death, have you ever considered that you might not be worthy? After all, the
preaching and teaching of the good news is under angelic direction 🙂
(Revelation 14:6) And I saw another angel flying in midheaven, and he had everlasting
good news to declare as glad tidings to those who dwell on the earth, . . .

Surely these kind of control methods qualify the JWs as a cult rather than a Christian denomination.
not have uttered such a thoroughly ignorant statement. Clearly the charity
commission of the United Kingdom doesn't agree with your assessment but then again,
they are only professionals with years of experience.

It can be argued that we are all mentally diseased. But I refuse to argue the point. 😉
(1 Timothy 6:2-5) . . .Keep on teaching these things and giving these exhortations.
If any man teaches other doctrine and does not assent to healthful words, those of
our Lord Jesus Christ, nor to the teaching that accords with godly devotion, he is
puffed up [with pride], not understanding anything, but being mentally diseased
over questionings and debates about words. From these things spring envy,
strife, abusive speeches, wicked suspicions, violent disputes about trifles on the
part of men corrupted in mind and despoiled of the truth, thinking that godly
devotion is a means of gain.
In what sense they are mentally diseased i cannot say without some research, it
sounds though as a kind of self delusion, later termed, corrupted in mind.
