i am not a jehovas witness but when they give me them book thingys, i just leave them somewhere where there's a chance that someone is in need of the word of God and me leaving it there might help to save him.

Jehovah's Witnesses produce and distribute printed literature for those who are interested. It is disrespectful and wasteful to accept literature which one has no intention of reading. Magazines past their cover date and one-sheet tracts can be recycled, and any damaged or soiled literature can be discarded. Other literature in good condition can simply be returned to the nearest Kingdom Hall, so that it can be used by someone else.
There is a wide range of articles on the official website of Jehovah's Witnesses. At present, there are over 400 articles, some of which are listed here:

I usually find the Watchtower magazine at my doctor's office. I used to toss them in the trash but then I got a better idea. I would take a pen and write, "www.silentlambs.org" across the face.
That is the website about the pedophiles using the Watchtower as an excuse to go door to door targeting children. I did not feel guilty doing this.

When offered a "Pamphlet" I go bizerk and run all over the neighborhood hugging tree's and crying, "Don't kill any more trees Please" over and over and over. Then I go into an indian dance; which is disasterious since I'm an Eskimo ... and well, I think I scare those poor Jehovah's. (giggle)
No, really, I try to politely turn down the gift, and nicely inform them that "I working to save the enviroment by living as Paperless as possible".

I just politely decline the pamphlet before they even give it to me. But if you wanna toss it, go for it.

Just don't take it, if you do take it then yes you can throw it away without feeling guilty as those are not my beliefs.

I usually refuse to take them because I know even that I'm not going to read it. So why should I waste their money. But if they're insistent on me taking it then I will throw it away.

Of course because if Jesus isn't who he claimed to be then he wasn't a prophet. If He wasn't who He claimed to be then He was the worst kind of person in the whole world.
