Because, as they have had their thinking guided by the unity of the Bible, they always answer in harmony, with the Bible. They are not automatons, or brainwashed as some would suggest, rather, they all have individual personalities, but when it comes to scriptural reasoning, they are always in agreement.

those that don't certainly attempt to furnish an definitely Bible-based supported answer, yet somewhat use the possibility to regurgitate the be conscious cult and different derogatory words. of path they are ashamed to bare their faith or lack thereof, and that they could be. If somebody is spamming your comments then it somewhat is advisable to evaluate blocking off those posters. What extremely is the element, they are purely misusing this talk board. @tulip Jehovah's Witnesses do not can charge for literature or Bible learn. So why might you submit that.. are you purposely attempting to misrepresent them or are you purely repeating what you heard without verifying the data?

My guess would be that they feel the combined Blessings of the Holy Spirit. It is likely why so few religions agree with other religions, or even have agreement among the congregations of the same religion. Look at recent news reports about the Presbyterians wanting to foreclose and take the property of congregations who are not following the mandates of the leadership. When you have the Holy Spirit guiding your heart, that guidance is shown in the uniformity of beliefs and spirit. Those lacking it are no better than any of the other religions, such as Islam, with its many divided sects.

In fact, this is the most common factor found in both Christendom and Islam, the lack of uniformity.

We are not trained to give the same answers as someone above me said. The fact that we study the Bible daily and that we attend the meetings regularly (where we also learn what the Bible really says) makes us 'prepared for every good work'. - 2Timothy 2:21
Compared to other religions we are organized and we receive the same 'food'.
"At any rate, to what extent we have made progress, let us go on WALKING ORDERLY IN THE SAME ROUTINE." - Philippians 3:16
“Who really is the faithful and discreet slave whom his master appointed over his domestics, to give them their FOOD at the proper time?" - Matthew 24:45
Of course our answers are alike. Isn't that normal? We can't say what we personally think (we're imperfect) but what the Bible says.
In my country the dominant religious body is the Romanian Orthodox Church; its members make up 86.7% of the population according to the 2002 census. I once asked a classmate (orthodox) to explain me the trinity. He told me that God isn't equal with Jesus. After that I asked the Religion teacher. He said that the Orthodox believe that God is equal with the son. This shows that most of them don't know what their religion's beliefs really say. They are confused.

The reason is that they have been trained to answer questions the same way. They never give you a personal example of how God works in their lives. They can never say to you, "I was reading the Bible, and I learnt something new today, on my own." This also causes all JW's to go around giving the same wrong answers.

Half of what they say comes directly from their Shouters. They couldn't be quoting the Bible in unison because there is no unanimity in in the many versions of the Bible. In most cases on Answers they play follow the leader with a few twists. They're sort of like sheep now, they follow their leaders and an occasional Judas Goat......like Jim Johnson.

I often feel as if I'm reading automated replies when I come across their messages. It's possible to share the same beliefs, and still have personality and individuality. It's disturbing...robotic like...and very strange! Now that I know what this group is about, I have no more questions concerning them, and plan to avoid them at all costs. Satan is active in that group. I feel sorry for the members.

Jehovah's Witnesses demonstrate individuality in a wide range of diversities and preferences. But when it comes to true worship, does the bible encourage thousands or millions of competing visions for the Christian congregation?

(1 Peter 2:21) Christ suffered for you, leaving you a model for you to follow his steps closely.

(John 13:15) For I [Jesus] set the pattern for you, that, just as I did to you, you should do also.

(Romans 12:2) Be transformed by making your mind over, that you may prove to yourselves the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

(1 Corinthians 2:12-16) Now we received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that have been kindly given us by God. These things we also speak, not with words taught by human wisdom, but with those taught by the spirit, as we combine spiritual matters with spiritual words. But a physical man does not receive the things of the spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot get to know them, because they are examined spiritually. However, the spiritual man examines indeed all things, but he himself is not examined by any man. For “who has come to know the mind of Jehovah, that he may instruct him?” But we do have the mind of Christ.

(Philippians 2:5) Keep this mental attitude in you that was also in Christ Jesus

As with any denomination, they are taught scripture that supports their doctrine and taught scripture that refutes any attack on their doctrine. Anyone that has the inspiration to study on their own without preconceived ideas will with the help of the Holy Spirit discover what is true doctrine and what is not.

Programming from the Watchtower, they study the same scripture verses worldwide and are taught this.
