You know what? You need to get your facts straight. How is it that we don't believe in a Sunday? That doesn't even make sense. How is it that we believe that church is the devil made, when we go to church ourselves? That makes no sense either. We do believe in the Virgin Mary. We also believe in Peter and all the days of the week and the weekends, too. We aren't against the state and government, but we are Neutral and don't take sides of any nation. Why? Because Jesus said in John 17:16 “They are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world.” We don't serve in the army because in John 13:34, 35 it says "I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another; just as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love among yourselves."
"Then Jesus said to him: “Return your sword to its place, for all those who take the sword will perish by the sword" (Matthew 26:52)
"So, then, let us pursue the things making for peace and the things that are upbuilding to one another" (Romans 14:19)
We NEVER said the world will end in 1914. We said that Jesus was enthroned as King in 1914. We never said that angels were created as humans. God NEVER intended for angels to marry humans. Yet, that’s what happened in Noah’s day. (Genesis6:1-4)
6 days in Genesis is 7,000 years; "However, let this one fact not be escaping your notice, beloved ones, that one day is with Jehovah as a thousand years and a thousand years as one day." (2 Peter 3:8) (Psalm 90:4) As for the flag, like I said before we are neutral. “Flee from idolatry.” (1 Corinthians 10:14)

This supposedly "question" seems mostly intended to spread falsehood and slander against Jehovah's Witnesses. The vast majority of these allegations and accusations are simply untrue and seem motivated by bigotry and hatred. Interestingly, such "hatred" should be expected by true Christians in this time of the end, and it actually helps identify Jehovah's Witnesses as Christ's true disciples:
(John 15:19) If you were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own. Now because you are no part of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on this account the world hates you.
(Luke 6:22) “Happy are you whenever men hate you, and whenever they exclude you and reproach you and cast out your name as wicked for the sake of the Son of man.
(1 Peter 4:4) Because you do not continue running with them in this course to the same low sink of debauchery, they are puzzled and go on speaking abusively of you.
(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; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, whereas they will be turned aside to false stories. You, though, keep your senses in all things, suffer evil, do the work of an evangelizer, fully accomplish your ministry.
It seems signficant that the relatively small religion of Jehovah's Witnesses are the ones best known for their worldwide preaching work. Yet Jesus commanded that ALL who would call themselves "Christian" perform this public work:
(Matthew 28:19,20) Go therefore and make disciples of people of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the holy spirit, teaching them to observe all the things I have commanded you. And, look! I am with you all the days until the conclusion of the system of things.”
When sincere questions are asked individually, Jehovah's Witnesses are happy to answer each intelligently from the Scriptures. Information can also be found at their official website:

Not true... you have your facts wrong. First of all, where do you get off calling someone's religion heresy? That just proves your prejudice and hatred. You have no actual question, so I will report this. But... first, get your facts straight
They do call themselves Christians (and what do you have against Protestants or Jews that you have to make that a negative comparison?)
What are the churches of the lord? I am guessing that since you mention "Our mother virgin mary" and the "saints" that you must be catholic... Not everyone believes in those things... does that make the heretics? NO... but it does make you a biggot.
They do believe in Peter as his book is written in the Bible as an apostole of Jesus
No, they do not say that hell is the grave, as they do NOT believe in hell
There is no such thing as "believing" in a certain day. Unless you are talking about the Sabbath... in muslim and jewish religions it is equivalent to YOUR Saturday because of differences in ancient and roman calendars which the Popes changed to their satisfaction, or YOUR Sunday... c'mon!!! Grow up and read a history book!!! Or did you not take world history in college?
They do not believe in any current temple
They are not against state or government. They actually believe that one should have respect for the laws and their authority as a matter of fact... so you're wrong yet again
They don't believe that the church is devil made, but they do believe that some people take advantage of religion and faith in order to con trusting people out of their money and morals
They are conscious objectors, meaning that they cannot bear arms or hurt or kill others... I'm sorry, does your bible and religion ask that you kill and harm others in the name of "king or country"... go back to the middle ages with that one
They don't have to give their blessing to a flag, otherwise they would be pledging their faith to a country, thus, worshipping IT and not God
No, they do not believe the world ended in 1914, that is when they believe the devil unleashed some of his evil so that humanity would lose their faith in God, it resulted in a world war and the holocaust, do you still have faith? because you seem to be full of hate... I guess evil did a nimber on you...
They are not liars... it is their faith and you are not being forced to believe or partake in any of it against your will, just as your religion is (hopefully) not forcing itself on others by slandering other religions... wait... isn't that what you are doing now?
They never say that Jesus came down like an angel in 1914 in the temple of God... You must be referrign to the angel Michael, which is Jesus' human form, shich firther translates to and is actually human greatness. In other words, "good of mankind" which did happen during the world war; nations came together to fight as one in order to defeat evil (Hitler, etc.)
They believe that a day to God is like a thousand years to man... why else doyou think scientists keep saying that the Earth is millions of years old? Duh!!!
THEY DO NOT BELIEVE THAT ANGELS WERE CREATED LIKE HUMANS!!! They were made in the image of man, and man was made in the image of God... meaning they look alike but are not the same. Furthermore: NEVER DO THEY SAY THAT ANGELS CAN MARRY HUMANS!!! You read that SOOO wrong!!! They actually tell of angels that came down and took women for wives and had children with them, Their children were an abomination (violent and evil) because God FORBADE his angels from procreating with any humans. That is one of the reasons for the great flood.
Sooo, there is no need to go to Psalms on that one if you had read Genesis correctly.
Next time, get your facts straight with a religion before coming to your own conclusions of hatred... people with negative things to say about any religion are the reason for war and further hatred... Learn!!! Reported for slander, hateful material, and not asking a question!!!

You are a very good example of the effects of Catholicism.
You should be mad. After all, you have been lied to all your life.
False doctrines that originated with the pagans, hellfire, saints Mary as the Mother of God?, even Jesus did not rise up to greet his mother. Against the state? No. They just do not worship it. I hope that God will intervene on your behalf, to get you enrolled in classes so as to learn to use proper grammer in your attacks on
others. You have so mich anger. It is not healthy. Have you tried xanax, or valium? They can really help you relax. Please do not try and carry this unnecessary burden you have picked up.

Christadelphians---is another denomination that is similar to Jehovah`s witnesses.
The Holy Bible is translated into every language in the world.In this process several mistakes(deviations) from original Greek (Septugenarian) text received different interpretations and different denominations resulted.
The advantage is that anyone who speaks any language in the world has a copy in one`s own tongue.
Celebrate the advantages.

Have you ever been a Witness? Have you ever talked to a Witness? Have you ever studied with a Witness? By your false statements the answer is obviously no, so I would suggest you actually STUDY with a real Witness, not reading opinionated websites and books, and then you will learn the TRUTH about us!!!
