JWs think only they have the truth and Mormons are a false religion. Mormons think only they have the truth and JWs are a false religion. In reality both are very similar high control relgions.
Both religions were started in the US in the 1800s by men that left the Presbyterian religion. Neither could find religions that they agreed with, so both started new religions. Both were also strongly influenced by Freemason symbols and teachings.
I find the JW answers above quite hilarious when saying JWs do not judge other religions. Their current tract campaign is saying that everyone in Babylon the Great (all religions apart from Jehovahs Witnesses) will soon be destroyed.
How about the following quotes;
“Only Jehovah’s Witnesses, those of the anointed remnant and the “great crowd,” as a united organization under the protection of the Supreme Organizer, have any Scriptural hope of surviving the impending end of this doomed system dominated by Satan the Devil.” Watchtower 1989 September 1 p.19
“There are billions of people who do not know Jehovah. Many of them in ignorance practice things that God’s Word shows to be wicked. If they persist in this course, they will be among those who perish during the great tribulation.” Watchtower 1993 October 1 p.19

Jehovah's Witnesses do not practice interfaith with any other religion. As a matter of doctrine, Jehovah's Witnesses consider themselves to practice true worship, and so by definition all other religions are false. Of course, Jehovah God and Jesus Christ determine the relative merits of each individual and so no human is in a position to remark authoritatively on another's potential for salvation.
As individuals, many Witnesses note that adherents of Mormonism have a reputation for neighborliness and godly love which is too uncommon among self-described Christians.
(John 13:34-35) I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another; just as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love among yourselves.”
It is also true that Mormonism has managed to recognize a few of the obvious bible truths that continue to evade most of Christendom, such as recognizing that Jesus the Son is a distinct person from God the Father.
(Mark 13:32) Concerning that day or the hour nobody knows, neither the angels in heaven nor the Son, but the Father.
(John 20:17) Jesus said to her: “...For I have not yet ascended to the Father. But be on your way to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and your Father and to my God and your God.’”
Also, it is interesting that only Jehovah's Witness and Mormonism have any real program of lay-ministry in which every adherent is encouraged to preach.
(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
Jehovah's Witnesses work to spread the Good News about the Kingdom of God, and so that is the focus of their message. "Mormonism" is not a single religion, but the so-called 'Latter-day Saints' tolerance of holiday celebrations, warfare, and nationalism are among the beliefs which Jehovah's Witnesses feel are incompatible with true worship.

Well, I think most Jehovah's Witnesses know their scriptures. I have met a couple of Mormons who used to be Jehovah's Witnesses, and they were still committed to reading the scriptures, but they seemed to have a little softer personalities, or they were more open to listening. I don't know how to describe it exactly. Have a happy day.
