You really should pay more attention and quit being so arrogant. Do JW's not feel that this is true?

If I hadn't been blocked , I could have just responded to the question..But, since I was blocked..I will post it here..There was no need to block me..I haven't ever been rude to any of you.

Well Jr..I could have seen that for myself if he had not blocked me..What I don't understand is why I was blocked.
I have never been rude to any of JW's. I have defended them as a matter of fact several times, when I see something that was said that I know isn't the truth about that religion.

But..I must add that I see that a lot with them..Many are arrogant, and bragging , and haughty..not all ..but many are.

I have starred the question so that you may see for yourself. He was in fact quoting someone else to ask a question about it. Hope this helps.

As a general rule, most JWs can run rings around nominal Christians they find at the doors. Just think about the number of people that call themselves christian and yet know very little about the Bible. That is the majority of people that call themselves Christian
However, to be fair here, there are are many sincere Christan's that can, and do, run rings around most JWs
Most JWs do not know enough about different translations to be able to give good reasons why the NWT is extremely accurate. (NO BIBLE 100% REPRESENTS THE ORIGINAL WRITTINGS) and very few Bibles come close. The NWT does come closser than Most Bibles.
Nearly all schollars will reject the NWT, but not all
One Biblical Greek Scholar who teaches Biblical Greek has written a book about this subject and is NOT a JW, has realy gone out on a limb and has stated that the NWT is, overal, the Best, most accurate, English Version available today but he says there are areas where it could be better.
A NON JW hebrew scholar from Israel has said the old testamant part of the NWT is the most accurate English Bible
These men are not afraid to be ridiculed by scholars that object to the theology of JWs in favour of Bibles that support their theologies.

The statement is inaccurate. Jehovah's Witnesses ARE Christians. You cannot put Jehovah's Witnesses on one side and Christians on another.
Jesus was a Witness for his Father, Jehovah. Those who really follow Christ, i.e., Christians, are Jehovah's Witnesses also.
The mission of Jehovah's Witnesses is not to "run circles" around anybody, but to preach the Good News of the Kingdom of God.

You can't answer a question if a person has you blocked? I did not know this. You are not even able to see their entire question? This does not ring true. Why would you be able to see just a part of the question? Or any of it at all if you can't answer it?
In order to become one of Jehovah's Witnesses, one has to be humble. It takes humility to admit to yourself and others that your longstanding, closely held beliefs are wrong, pagan even. It takes humility to repent of your sins and dedicate your life to Jehovah God, to do his will and not your own. Anyone who is haughty or arrogant could never do this.

We do know this, thk u.
And I saw that Q/A also,
He was posting what somebody else had said.
And as usual "some things don't translate
SO well over the internet."
As to why u were blocked,
I wouldn't know why that was done.
And I also know, you have defended
what some ppl say here @ Y/A's,
concerning the faith of
The Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses.
I've read it myself.

humans are not perfect and no matter what religion you will find some who don't quite match up. also how do you know for sure people on here are really what they say they are they could say their witnesses and be rude just to give witnesses a bad name. or any religion for that fact.

I agree with what JR said...why are you, the questioner, lumping ALL Jehovah's Witnesses in one pile because of what was said by one!
We are all individuals, with distinct personalities....some of which come off a little stronger than others.
People who are racists, categorize a group of people by the actions of one.....and you know that is not fair!

really? u know, its not right to judge a religion based on one persons actions. i apologize if theres a person claiming to be a JW and is having a rude or arrogant attitude towards u, but i promise thats not how we are. We reflect Gods personality, which are found in the book of Galathians 5:22,23- "the fruitage of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, KINDNESS, goodness, faith, mildness, self-control" but please remember, we too are imperfect, and sometimes our actins reflect our imperfection. again tho i apologize if someone has been rude to u.

Why are you talking about all of Jehovah's Witnesses based on one Jehovah's Witnesses post?
Also, he was actually quoting someone else's comments
