Actually, Jehovah's Witnesses themselves sometimes use the abbreviations "JW" or "JW's" or "JWs". The questioner might note that the official website of Jehovah's Witnesses' "Office of Public Information" is the internet domain:
http://jw-media.org
Even the internet domain "jw.org" is owned and used by a legal entity of Jehovah's Witnesses.

I'm curious about two things.
If one really is a Jehovah's Witness then wouldn't they know how to spell Jehovah's Witness correctly?
And second, why is it that whenever anyone is the slightest bit critical of Jehovah's Witnesses on this website they are given multiple thumbs down regardless of whether their answer is good or not? I have seen this happen multiple times. It is very childish and immature and only makes Witnesses look bad.
Anyone with TRUE FAITH should have no need to suppress or censor another's comments, as true faith is strong enough to withstand criticism on it's own.

I was raised by my mom who's a jehova witness. And there are many rude people here. I met a lot of jehova witnesses and they are very nice. So if you feel strongly about your faith that's good but you don't have to be rude to explain your reason.
I have stop my bible study for a few weeks because i'm very busy and would like to resume. Please rvt e-mail me.

I'm a Jehovah's Witness and believe me nothing would change my mind, not any of these people that are narrow minded.
They will oppose you just like they did with Jesus, so bring it on!!
Jehovah's Witness from South-Africa and very proud to be one

Jehovah's Witnesses claim to be God's only prophet....Does God not condemn them?
Remember Deut. 18:22, "If what a prophet proclaims in the name of the LORD does not take place or come true, that is a message the LORD has not spoken. That prophet has spoken presumptuously. Do not be afraid of him." If someone makes a false prophecy, and they have claimed to be a prophet of God, then they are false prophets and are not to be listened to.
Do the Witnesses claim to be the prophet of God? Yes, they do.
In 1972 the Jehovah's Witness Watchtower claimed to be the prophet of God.
IDENTIFYING THE "PROPHET" -- "So does Jehovah have a prophet to help them, to warn them of dangers and to declare things to come? These questions can be answered in the affirmative. Who is this prophet?...This "prophet" was not one man, but was a body of men and women. It was the small group of footstep followers of Jesus Christ, known at that time as International Bible Students. Today they are known as Jehovah's Christian Witnesses..

1925 "The year 1925 is here. With great expectation Christians have looked forward to this year.

A JW might say that the organization is still learning. If that is so, then how can they trust what they are taught now by the Watchtower? Will what they are being taught now change also?
A true prophet of God won't err in prophesying. Only a false prophet does. The Jehovah's Witness organization, that claims to be a prophet of God, is really a false prophet. Jesus warned us by saying, "For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect -- if that were possible" (Matt. 24:24).

I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses. I am the only one on here I can swear to. I know some on here do appear to be Witnesses but I have also found appearances on here are often quite deceiving.
