I wonder why you asked this- were you actually hoping you'd have responses about "incessant door knocking"? As one of Jehovah's Witnesses, I obviously don't hate fellow believers, or any other people for that matter. Jehovah's Witnesses are actually trying to help people. We don't expect everyone to like or agree with us, but we want people to be able to make an informed decision to reject or (as I hope!) accept the good news and become a subject of God's Kingdom on earth forever.

I think it's the idea that they come to your house and try and sell you they're beliefs. The Christian religions act in the same way, but you don't see it the same way. Being that Christianity is in the majority of this country, it's everywhere surrounding the church and state.
You can also look at the opposite side of the spectrum. Take the Jewish religion, they're not trying to get you to believe in anything. It's totally up to oneself to try and understand what the religion is about and the conversion is no easy task either. A Rabbi must grant the conversion.
I've always looked at the Jehovahs Witnesses as traveling religion salespeople.

Personally, I don't hate Jehovah's witnesses. In fact, I love to engage them in debate. Once they see that I am not a sheep, they usually move onto the next person. This one group that came to my door one Sunday morning, we talked for at lease two hours and I had them ready to turn their backs on being a witness. Just goes to show you, they can be converted also.

I don't hate them. It's just...they don't believe in the Trinity.
The Trinity displays the Godhead, or three in one. Father, Son, Holy Spirit. They believe Jesus is a created being who at one point didn't exist, but since Jesus is God, he always existed. Jesus should not be prayed to, nor did he come back to life in bodily form.
They believe that all other churches are of Satan, and that the government is Satanic, that there will only be 144,000 Jehovah's witnesses who will be sent to heaven, etc.

I don't hate them at all. I have some JW friends.
However, for the sake of honesty, I have to admit that I wish they (and other groups) would stay away from my door with evangelizing attempts, as I've already got a religion that I'm quite happy with.

Because they always seem to turn up at your door at the worst time and then you either feel the need to hide so they think you're out or you have to try and get rid of them in the shortest amount of time possible (normally ending up with a copy of their most recent leaflet being stuck in your hand before they go).

Did you not notice that he attacks anyone who's beliefs differ from his? He doesn't limit it to the Witnesses, my friend.

To hate is a sin. We all are created by God, so we are brothers on earth..

I don't. However, I have talked with several KH people/leaders & it is clear that they translate the Bible to fit their theology! That is dishonest & is changing God's word for their persuasion.
If you want examples, let me know.
Proper translation:
Hebrew->english
Greek->english
Aramaic-> english
What the Jehovah's Witness religion does:
Hebrew->theological view->english
Greek->theological view->english
Aramaic->theological view->english
IT IS DISHONEST!
