This is what we believe, lets fix the misconceptions
(1) Bible: Jehovah’s Witnesses believe that the entire Bible is the inspired Word of God, and instead of adhering to a creed based on human tradition, they hold to the Bible as the standard for all their beliefs.
(2) God: They worship Jehovah as the only true God and freely speak to others about him and his loving purposes toward mankind. Anyone who publicly witnesses about Jehovah is usually identified as belonging to the one group—“Jehovah’s Witnesses.”
(3) Jesus Christ: They believe, not that Jesus Christ is part of a Trinity, but that, as the Bible says,, he is the Son of God, the first of God’s creations; that he had a prehuman existence and that his life was transferred from heaven to the womb of a virgin, Mary; that his perfect human life laid down in sacrifice makes possible salvation to eternal life for those who exercise faith; that Christ is actively ruling as King, with God-given authority over all the earth since 1914

Most of the people dont have a clue of what JW's believe and they dont want to know. They only can tell lies about them, spread them over the internet and dont give any concern into the bible that proofs that they are the only ones that follow Jesus's path.

Do the Jehovah's witnesses know you are on here sprouting your religion? I suppose you are free to sprout wherever you like and are free to believe whatever you like, but that does not make it the truth does it? And I don't suppose you will read a lot of the answers because they don't fit in with your ideology, so really it's a waste of time. Do you really mean to tell me that is what God created us for to go around the world constantly drumming up business for heaven. I cannot for one moment believe that a highly intelligent logical being that god is supposed to be would have poor humans doing that. It's a bit arrogant really isn't it, you create something called a human then you get that creation to do your bidding for you. I mean if I were god then I guess I would come to earth and show myself and do my own bidding if I was so desperate to have humans in my heaven. I mean god being god could have created only a heaven where everything is perfect anyway and there would be no need of an earth in the first place. After all I had nothing to do with making some tree that some people ate fruit of it that were not supposed to...I mean if you knew human nature was to be inquisitive why make the tree in the first place knowing..because your god...that humans would eat it and then all the other stuff comes after that..it just does not make sense..but then again I am not god am I. I think I will take my chances...

I've studied the Jehovah's Witness denomination, and even though I think JW's are good people, and very sincere, I do not and cannot agree with all the doctrine.
What is the difference between the NWT, and a different version of the Bible, say, the KJV? The difference is very pronounced once you get into the New Testament.

I like the God-given authority over all the earth since 1914 part.
It's so random and irrelevant.
Did someone ask for information about JW?
I admit I don't know much about it, but the vibe it gives me makes me shudder.
It's much the same vibe I get from LDS, Fundamentalist Christians, and Catholic Faiths. The people are sincere but the dogma combines with the sincerity and the overall effect is a kind of creepy Orwellian mind police effect.
Know what I mean?
