Honestly they are not always aware of the statements and literature of their own organization and become very angry when you show them the truth from their own organization. I'm like I did not write that or make it up your organization did.

-Removed-I 'm in touch with Orthodox, JWs, Catholic, Liberal Christians etc; all the doctrines are based on specific systems of exegesis, which from the members of the differ institutions are supposed to be correct according to specific context. In general, the Christian institutions are considered by their members as "the sole holders of god's truth on earth". So what?

No it's not Christian at all but neither is yelling at Catholics through loud speakers and hate speech

Jesus Christ himself exposed the hypocrisy of the religious leaders of his day and we make no excuses for having done the same. As far as i aware, in America one has freedom of speech, it is not against the law to criticise anyone, but burning, lynching and destroying property is criminal and a sad reflection on those professing to be Christian,
'get away from me you workers of lawlessness', are the Christ's words.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieI agree with you and I don't care for the Catholic religion but all of that being said I'm just pointing out the fact that JWs have a sordid history and are not free of hypocrisy.

-Removed-Here is an essay on this question:

Robbie or Galveston75, is this accurate? Basically, the essay claims that the JW organization strategically misleads in its public statements surrounding this question; then turns around and teaches intolerance and exclusivity to its members.
So, basically, this essay purports to show that the JW organization is two-faced on this issue.
Originally posted by robbie carrobieI actually agree with Robbie on this too many armchair Christians and
someone has to do it, so many armchair Christians these days.
a quote from Walter Martin went something like this imagine the difference in the world If Christians were willing to do for the truth what cults do for a lie ? There will be and already is a famine not for food but for the word of God
