Jehovah's Witnesses are rumoured to be "stonecutters". They therefore could be presumed to be operating on an exchange system. In other words, if they give you something in liquid assets or commodities, such as printed material (including magazines and pamphlets), they might try to rob you on another system. They may rob you of benefits such as opportunities and jobs, or you could even lose your life. The loss of life might be made to look like it just happened or was the result of an accident, when, in reality, their system has made it happen. Stonecutters trade on the human market as well as the liquid assets or monetary market (such as the NYSE).
Mormons are onto this trick.
Never accept candy from a stranger!
Never accept free items of propaganda from Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons.

You could refer to the book called 'Wolves among Sheep: The True Story of Murder in a Jehovah's Witness Community' by James Kostelniuk

This so-called "question" is either a terrible joke or terrible slander.
There are more than 12 million people associated with the Jehovah's Witness religion around the globe. There are more than 6 million Jehovah's Witnesses actively preaching publicly every month in hundreds of languages. They are a well-respected, sincere Christian religion who obey the laws of God and of man, and respect community standards as well.
Yes, Jehovah's Witnesses *DO* distribute their literature at no charge, but *NOT* because they have some nefarious scheme to kill or rob their neighbors! They do so as part of their effort to obey Jesus' command to the entire Christian congregation:

You might be able to deceive fellow humans, but YOU cannot fool Jehovah. (Heb. 4:13) Time and again the Scriptures exhort us to be honest with one another, for liars will have no place in an earth swept clean of unrighteousness. (Prov. 14:2) The reason for that should be clear. The promoter of all untruth is none other than Satan the Devil. John 8:44.
Making honesty our way of life brings numerous benefits. Among them are a clean conscience and the satisfaction of being trusted by others. But, the most important benefit, is that honesty wins us the friendship of Almighty God.
No more for the desires of men, but for God’s will. For the time that has passed by is sufficient for US to have worked out the will of the nations when WE proceeded in deeds of loose conduct, lusts, excesses with wine, revelries, drinking matches, and illegal idolatries. Because WE 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 US. But these people will render an account to the one ready to judge those living and those dead.
You ask a ??? pertaining to Jehovah's Witnesses, unless a Witness answers your ???, all you receive is a bunch of utter nonsense, lies, they know very little about JW's, they just like to toot their horn.
Who are most of these people? Some just hate the teaching of JW's, but many are disfellowshipped, apostates, a disloyal person who betrays or deserts his cause or religion. Why did they leave or were disfellowshipped, here are some reasons:
Some of the offenses that could merit disfellowshipping from the Christian congregation are fornication, adultery, homosexuality, greed, extortion, thievery, lying, drunkenness, reviling, spiritism, murder, idolatry, apostasy, and the causing of divisions in the congregation.
Why don't you people wise up and start acting like a
Christian, isn't that what most of you claim to be?

Hello. First off this is not a question. (REPORTED) Second, you are entitled to an opinion as Jehovah has given us all free will. An example. The Nazis had opinions. Atheists have opinions. Rapists have opinions. Murderers have opinions. So obviously you too have an opinion. I do ask that you check your facts, or in this case get some facts first. You are right nothing in this world is free. So, in that case what do you give up when reading our literature. You do give up time, and if all you do is read letters attached together as words attached together as sentences attached to form paragraphs and so on, then all you give is time and you get nothing. If,however, you read, as I and millions of others have, you give time, but get an understanding of, Jehovah, Jesus, why this world is in the condition it is, etc.
PS If you truly read and understand what is written you do give up more than time. You give up your slavery to false doctrines.

hmm? well that made no sence, all literature and items handed out in the field ministry are made by donations from members.. we don't steal anything O.o;
what an odd...question..btw. that wasn't even a question you asked, just an insult.
and seriously, what would be the point of killing people we're trying to preach the good word of god's kingdom to?.
you don't know a single thing your talking about. and it's not like anyone with a IQ higher than a goldfish would beleive you anyways.
