As a faithful Jehovah's Witness, achtung_heiss is great at giving answers as direct quotes from the official Watchtower website. But will he ever engage in direct conversation with someone who is critical of his religion?

achtung_heiss,
Thanks for responding. I apologize if I've misunderstood your answers as always being direct quotes from your religion's website. However, I'm still puzzled by the fact that you don't seem to want to engage in conversation. Most Jehovah's Witnesses I've met are the same way: They are always ready to speak and share their religion's official teachings, but not willing to listen, or even question what they are repeating, assuming is the truth. The Unbiblical doctrines asside, the Watchtower has for years been wrong on key points—including repeatedly falsely predicting when Christ would return. Will you engage in conversation about these things?

TeeM: I agree wholeheartedly that arguing or debating doctrine for the sake of trying to win an argument will do neither person much good. However, what have you to say for the thousands who have left the Watchtower Organization, who now call themselves Christians and fellowship with other likeminded followers of Christ outside the Kingdom Hall? Are you too not willing to discuss the reasons they have left? Are you not willing to hear their testimonies of a changed heart, of their personal relationship with Jesus Christ?
