Flintpen : You might not care but I do and so many others. It is not that these people keep their message peacefully to themsleves, they go door to door to spread this false message. Easiest targets are people who do not know very much about the Bible and Society.

I would change the Bible that they use to a "Valid Version" of the Bible.
The New World Translation is most definitely not a valid version of God’s Word. There are differences between all the major English translations of the Bible. No English translation is perfect. However, while other Bible translators make minor mistakes in the rendering of the Hebrew and Greek text into English; the NWT intentionally changes the rendering of the text to conform to Jehovah’s Witness’ theology. The New World Translation is a perversion, not a version, of the Bible.

There are more than a dozen legal and corporate entities with names similar to "Watchtower Society". It would be a rare individual who knows enough about any of these corporations to suggest any changes, even if he did know that generally the name has been associated with Jehovah's Witnesses for many decades.
Perhaps the questioner intends to ask about suggested changes to the religion of the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses.
When a questioner refuses to even use the actual and respectful name of a religion, it would seem to expose the questioner's lack of objectivity and lack of credibility.

Who cares! There is enough trouble in the world without initiating more. If the people within the Society are happy, why should it bother us?
In fact, do we have the right to interfere if they are peacefully encapsulated in their "bubble"?

I am personally not going to take the time to change anything about anyone's religion. There are so many religions in this world, if I wanted to change every one of them, because I believed that I knew what I was talking about, I would have no time to comtemplate on what kind of person I was.
Judgement, acceptance, forgiveness, understanding, free will, have you heard those words before.
Peace and love,

That they would give Jesus his proper title and worship him...Denying Christ was God in mans form, negates their religion. You can not accept Jesus if you do not even know who he was.
