why do Jehovah Witness feel it neccessary to condemn anything different than their religion?

Answer 1

If they do not condemn why do they state other religions as FALSE and run by Satan? In my experience it is rare to find one who will happily agree to disagree without firing a passing shot at one's beliefs without provocation.

Answer 2

All religions by their very nature condemn other beliefs, the only thing that makes Jehovah Witnesses different is that they are more open about their feelings. If you follow a religion you believe you are right and others are wrong. To use Christianity as one example; it is perfectly possible for a Christian to be a very nice human being who tolerates others and has massive respect for other religions, however in the final analysis that Christian still believes that non-believers will burn for eternity in hell. I have many friends and colleagues like this - they don't go around telling you that you will go to hell, but in their hearts they believe it. Jehovah Witnesses turn up on your doorstep and tell you this - that is the essential difference and why they attract so much hostility

Answer 3

JEHOVAH WITNESS DO NOT HAVE A BLACK LIST!!! I feel before to talk about it learn about that way you can talk with accurate knowledge.I studied different religions and you have to read about it in order to understand and be around it.

Why do you feel they condemn, I have never heard they condemn
If you look at all religions they have different ways of life and certain ways they chose to worship God. Everyone in their life have to make a choice and make decisions everyday, everyone standards are different. this world is made up of clicks, groups. Depending on your values and morals you will not keep company with certain people would you hang out with drug dealer, or career criminals,or anything that will make you uncomfortable or go against your beliefs and values. no, right!!! so at certain point in everyone life, we judge. I have nothing against anyone that is seeking a better way of life. whether if is to get rid of the negative to welcome positive and also in every religion you have good apples and bad apples. But in the end it is You that is responsible for You. so let other live and make their own life decisions; obvisiouly, it is their choosen path. The be honest I respect any religion that will got out in this hateful world and take the chance to be laugh apond and slandered, in order to get the message of god out to the people. to me that is being brave believe me we are in a crazy world. I HAVE MET some real nice witnesses and others that had aggressive personals but I can't round up a whole religion just because of some people that I didn't like. all religion have guideline, every person has guidelines things they will and would not do. let people live there live. I talk about no religions. I RESPECT ALL RELIGION AND THERE STRUGGLES.

Answer 4

They have complete belief in their religion. There is no grey area for them, for them the truth of what they worship is sacressant. To argue against it would be like someone arguing that you are a boy when you are a girl. You would condemn the person as ignorant etc.
Such is the absolute belief of most, (not all) Jehova's witnesses. Their religion is the only true one.

Answer 5

Jehovah's Witnesses do not condemn anything.

When they point to the bible's clear direction on certain topics, however, the consciences of many are certainly pricked. Some listen to the bible's wisdom and work to make the changes to please God.

Others just look for different teachers who will help them ignore bible truth:

(2 Timothy 4:3-5) For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the healthful teaching, but, in accord with their own desires, they will accumulate teachers for themselves to have their ears tickled; 4 and they will turn their ears away from the truth, whereas they will be turned aside to false stories. 5 You, though, keep your senses in all things, suffer evil, do the work of an evangelizer, fully accomplish your ministry.

(2 Peter 1:16) No, it was not by following artfully contrived false stories that we acquainted you with the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ,

Answer 6

why don't u go into a kingdom hall and find out what we are all about. we don't talk about any other religion. we are a loving and caring people. or why don't you talk to a Jehovah Witness when someone knocks one your door. we answer questions all the time. we are not a cult. we are in 235 lands and doing what Jesus Christ told us to do at Matthew 28 verses 19 and 20. also I am tired of people saying we are a cult, we are a religion

Answer 7

Because they fear the unknown. If God truly set someone free you would not be presupposed to "let" people go to hell due to their indifference or supposed ignorance. JEHOVAH WITNESS IS NOT A CHRISTIAN SECT, they are a cult. Why do they have a blacklist? Why did they lift their bans on vaccinations and organ donation, yet they still deny their members blood transfusions? Their theology is more than a fairytale. At least I have an image of twinkletoes.

Answer 8

Jehovah's Witnesses have been given a commission by Jesus Christ to go out and make disciples(Mat28:19,20)
1Peter2:21 brings out that "Christ suffered for you,leaving you a model to follow his steps closely."And this is what we try to do.Jesus,when on earth,also preached from house to house and where ever people could be found.(Acts5:42;Luke9:1-6)
Jesus himself became incensed at the hypocrisy and false teachings by the religious leaders of his day.(Mat.15:3-10;Mark7:915)
Jehovah's Witnesses are convinced from the fulfilment of Bible prophesies that this system is rapidly coming to its end,and therefore they are endeavouring to reach as many people as they can with the Good News of God's Kingdom.No other religion teaches their followers that by means of this Heavenly Kingdom,our God Jehovah will bring eternal blessings for those who listen and come into an accurate knowledge of God and His Son, Jesus.At 1Tim.2:4,the scriptures tell us that it is God's will " that all sorts of men should be saved and come to an accurate knowledge of truth."
And this is why Jehovah's Witnesses are out there,day after day,talking to people about the Bible and the wonderful hope for man's future.
Like Jesus,I guess sometimes,it is hard not to condemn false teachings and man made doctrines.Because by following in these false teachings many are going to loose out on life and we want to help save as many as want to be saved.- John 17:3

Answer 9

The Jehovah's Witnesses are just another Christian sect, and Christian sects typically believe that they're right and that everyone else is wrong and going to hell in a hand basket.

Answer 10

Probably because they think their religion is the best one, but I respect every religion and I don´t think no
one can condemn other peoples ideas

Answer 11

Check out every religion in the world. Better than that check out races of people, countries, companies, even one guy thinking his lawn is better than his neighbor. It's human nature, everybody gotta be better than the next man.
