Not talking about the information but about the point I made. Besides if you keep going after Jehovah's Witnesses because of their beliefs you could be found to be in breach of the Antidiscrimination Act under 'Victimization'. Just good advice.
The society won't challenge people's claims as above. But individuals can if they wish. Can I ask, do you think that Jehovah's Witnesses are really so demonstrably bad? How could that be when Jehovah's people say their lives are much better coming to an understanding the Bible. For example many have given up smoking, drugs, alcohol abuse, gambling, single parents have married when they accept the Bible's council on that arrangement, just to name a few benefits. People's lives dramatically improve after receiving God's help through the scriptures. There are so many benefits. It doesn't make sense to go after a group of people who have such a positive outlook for the future and their present lives.
Can you, for example think of an organization where all the members have given up smoking in order to become a member?
Or can you think of an organization that encourages each member to pay their taxes according to law?
Or how about encouraging members to use alcohol in moderation rather than a yearly drink up (or even other times)?
And what about the positive effects of the marriage arrangement, how that encourages partners to work matters out rather than giving up when there is no formal arrangement. That alone reduces the numbers of single parent families which is a burden on the community and government.
Can't understand why you would want to pick on a people who have so much going for them. You seem to be stuck on the changes of view point as if to say people are not allowed to adjust their thinking. Imagine having the wrong idea about something and sticking to it. Would that bring success? Hardly. If Jehovah's Witnesses need to make changes in their thinking they do so. At least they are making an effort.
And if you believe God will save anyone or everyone that is your opinion and you can keep that. But it should be based upon 'something'.
The simple truth is - (Matthew 7:1-5) 7 “Stop judging that you may not be judged; for with the judgment you are judging, you will be judged, and with the measure that you are measuring out, they will measure out to you. Why, then, do you look at the straw in your brother’s eye but do not notice the rafter in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Allow me to remove the straw from your eye,’ when look! a rafter is in your own eye? Hypocrite! First remove the rafter from your own eye, and then you will see clearly how to remove the straw from your brother’s eye."
I always try to remind myself (admittedly I make mistakes) , when you point your finger at someone else there are always 3 fingers pointing back at yourself.
