The Europeans take a religion, that is, Christianity over to the States...?

Question

and then they send it back to Europe! Jehovahs Witnesses, Mormons and the like, bloody typical, we thought that we might have got rid of religion and then it comes back in a worse form. Anyone else agree.

Answer 1

Sounds like someone still wants the tea taxes owed by the colonies?

I think you folks in Europe have a much bigger problem with Islam, than you do with Mormons or JWitnesses!

When was the last time you remember Mormon teenagers shutting down the country of France with riots. Was it Jehovah's Witnesses that blew up the subway in London?

Your main religious problems aren't coming from the states, they are coming from the middle east, but you keep on hating the U.S. if it makes you feel good. One day, when you are wearing a burkah and following your husband around, you may find that maybe the US was right.

Answer 2

Did you know that by the year 2050 Europe will go completely Islamic? Worry about that! The Mormons and JWs might be stupid at least they are not violent.Have you heard of Londonistan?Does it seem far-fetched?

Answer 3

Absolutely, there are something like 7500 different denominations of the Christian Church in the US, let them keep it there and let England and the rest of Europe keep it's traditional religions.

Answer 4

Just think, the religious nutters we hounded out created the American psyche, and spawned religious factions and self- righteousness. We the English , should be proud !

Answer 5

Questions like this imply that Jehovah's Witnesses have created a theology intended to please themselves, or their so-called countrymen. That is simply not true. The ONLY opinions of ongoing interest to a true Witness are those of Jehovah and Christ Jesus. Those who work to ingratiate themselves with some human or human group are not doing God's will.

(1 Thessalonians 2:4) We speak, as pleasing, not men, but God, who makes proof of our hearts.

(Matthew 6:20,21) Store up for yourselves treasures in heaven... For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.


Jehovah's Witnesses have the true religion. They are Christian (of course), but they are unique for their rejection of paganisms, use of God's personal name, and global preaching by every active adherent. No other religious organization can claim such purity of worship.

These facts about Jehovah's Witnesses are perhaps relevant to this question. The more one compares this Christian religion with others, the more remarkable it is shown to be.

1. Jehovah's Witnesses have no paid clergy. Yet they remain tightly organized with more than 6.5 million active Jehovah's Witness preachers (about 16 million associate themselves with the religion). Even fulltime preachers and workers at their branch offices are unpaid volunteers.

2. There is no elite class among Jehovah's Witnesses. Even the few 'anointed' among them enjoy no special privileges in their congregations on earth. An anointed person (one of those relative few with a heavenly hope) is not elevated above his fellow congregants in any way, and he may not even qualify for appointment as a simple 'deacon' or elder. There are no titles; EVERYONE is addressed as 'brother' or 'sister'.

3. No person benefits economically from the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses. Even the 8 to 20 men who serve on their Governing Body receive simply room, board, medical care, and reimbursement for certain personal expenses according to the exact same provision as every other branch volunteer.

4. About a hundred men have served on Jehovah's Witnesses' Governing Body committee during the past 125 years or so. The vast majority of them have spent the vast majority of their adult lives volunteering for their organization's purposes, and the vast majority have died faithfully and near-pennilessly while still under their legal 'vow of poverty'.

5. Amazingly, Jehovah's Witnesses did not splinter as a sect from some other religion. Instead, a truly tiny but sincere group of bible students studied only the Scriptures to determine the will of God. Thus their religion remains absolutely independent of and not carrying the sins of Christendom's history, yet carries the authority of Christ's teachings.

6. Despite the distortions of anti-Witnesses, throughout their modern history Jehovah's Witnesses have refused to claim divine inspiration or infallibility for their teachings. They have pointed to the bible (and not any particular translation) as the only inspired infallible means of knowing God's thoughts. For over 125 years, their teachings have been presented as merely the results of sincere bible research by imperfect but godly humans.

Answer 6

I agree with you, we got rid of our convicts and other scum but unfortunately they bred and we now have such people as Bush, Rice excetera, we would have done better to have exterminated all the religious idiots instead of sending them there.
