3rd. Happy I live in a gated community & I don't have to deal with random retards coming to my door.

4th. I know they don't celebrate shit, not even their own Birthdays. How lame is that?

Conclusion - Another heap of bullshit.


When I was 26 I had some 19 yr old girl selling magazines come to the door.  A butterface named Becka.  i got a field n stream,  rolling stone,  and a blow job.
you gotta take the good with the bad on these door knockers

Never trust anyone wearing a suit on the weekends - they're usually a real estate agent or a Jehova's Witness

I know a handful of them, and are very close to them...there is a lot of made up bullshit about what they are and who they are.

The knocking on doors is a small portion of what they do.  It is on a volunteer basis.

They do not celebrate specific holidays, but many of them are still willing to accept those who do.  For instance my roommate and her father are Witnesses...but we have Christmas lights up and a Christmas tree because I was raised Catholic.  They have no problem with that.

As far as the actual religious aspect of it I don't know too much, but I do know that they are familiar with many different religions.

a young lady stops by from time to time to talk to me. I think she either finds me funny or possibly she thinks i need saving. I usually keep it short and sweet but respectful. I honestly don;t know much about their beliefs, but they're certainly entitled to their beliefs.

JaHova Witness,

You said in your opening thread title...

"Perceptions, stereotypes, thoughts (neg or positive).. Please be honest"

So I did exactly what you asked, so you in turn post to me...

"Couldnt the same be said for the catholic church? Interpratation is the key to faith. Sont even get me started on all the bullshit the catholic church slangs. Last time i checked to, i didnt hear about any pastors from the kingdom hall molesting kids . You sound like a real conservative loser that is a great canidate for the catholic chruch to extort money from every sunday. Your interpratations are just that, interpratations. So just because Jahovahs dont believe jesus christ is the same person as Catholics they are wrong??? Leme guess you probabaly hate blacks too dont you???"

Secondly I will cut and paste what I just said in another post in a different thread about Roman Catholics.

What is the cause of the sexual abuse that has taken place in the Roman Catholic Church? 

Our contention is that the unbiblical requirement that priests be celibate is a primary cause, if not the ultimate cause. It is biblical that celibacy can be useful to ministry (1 Corinthians 7:32-34).

At the same time, it is completely unbiblical for any church to require celibacy among its leaders.
In the qualifications from church leadership sections (1 Timothy 3:1-13; Titus 1:6-9), the Apostle Paul assumes that bishops, elders, overseers, and deacons will be married and have children.

While these qualifications should not be viewed as requiring marriage/family to serve in church leadership, they are most definitely an allowance for married men to serve as leaders in the church. It is therefore completely anti-biblical for any church to require celibacy of its leaders.

The unbiblical requirement of celibacy on priests in the Roman Catholic Church likely contributes to sexual abuse in the following ways:

(1) Men whom God did not intend/design to be celibate are forced to be celibate, resulting in sexual tension and stress.

(2) With the very difficult requirement of celibacy, the Catholic priesthood attracts a higher percentage of men with abnormal sexual tendencies. 
Whether (1) or (2) is more prominent, the unbiblical requirement of celibacy is the cause. 

In the case of (1), men whom God did not design to be celibate are forced to be celibate, resulting in these men seeking sexual release in "alternative" ways.

In the case of (2), men without natural sexual desires are more willing to make the sacrifice of celibacy, which, when they give in to sexual temptations, results in unnatural sexual acts, whether it be homosexuality or pedophilia.

Continued from above post...

Whatever the cause, pedophile priests should be arrested and punished just as any other pedophile would be. Anyone covering up or, by negligence, enabling pedophilia in the church should be prosecuted. A priest who has sexually abused a child, or an adult for that matter, should never be allowed back into church leadership, as he could most definitely not be considered "above reproach" (1 Timothy 3:2).

The pedophile priest scandal in the Roman Catholic Church is absolutely horrid. There is nothing more antithetical to the message of Christ than priests sexually abusing children. May God use this scandal to awaken the church of Jesus Christ to the presence of apostates within the church and to strongly motivate the church to be fully biblical in all of its beliefs and practices.

Continued...

Let me be abundantly clear, as an Evangelical Protestant Christian man and most of the same organizations that believe the same as I do.

We have very strong disagreements with virtually every area of Roman Catholic doctrine and practice. 

Second, with the priesthood of all believers and Jesus' fulfillment/completion of the Old Testament sacrificial system and priesthood, we do not believe the New Testament instructs that there should even be priests.
Biblically speaking, a priest is a mediator (primarily through sacrifices) between God and man. With the Jesus as our High Priest, we already have direct access to God (Hebrews 4:14-16) and have no need for any other mediator (1 Timothy 2:5).

Third, it is important not to take the horribly evil actions of some Roman Catholic priests and attribute them to the entire Roman Catholic priesthood.

While we strongly disagree with virtually every area of Roman Catholic doctrine and practice, we have no doubt that many Roman Catholic priests truly love the Lord Jesus Christ, truly desire to minister to people, and would absolutely never molest a child.

It is impossible to discover how many "pedophile priests" have been, or still are, active in the Roman Catholic Church. Whatever the number is, it is surely an exceedingly small percentage. The vast majorities of Catholic priests have never, and would never, molest or harm a child in any way.

JaHova Witness,

You said "So just because Jahovahs dont believe jesus christ is the same person as Catholics they are wrong???"

Yes, I believe they are wrong and any Evangelical Protestant Christian man, woman or organization believes the same as I do.

Then you said "Leme guess you probabaly hate blacks too dont you???"

What? Where did that comment come from?

Actually, this is what I believe...

There is only one race—the human race. Caucasians, Africans, Asians, Indians, Arabs, and person are not different races. Rather, they are different ethnicities of the human race.

All human beings have the same physical characteristics (with minor variations, of course).

well i dont answer my door because usually its some bs window salesman, roofer salesman, detroit news salesman, moron selling books for a scam.

we get all types...."buy the oakland press so i can go on a cruise please"

neighborhood boyscouts asking for pop cans, neighbor asking if she can borrow my snow blower

these are some examples i have experienced, or a JW...

i figure none of this is worth my time of answering my door.  and in actuality as my father is a former police officer, one of the most dangerous ways for a criminal to get in your house is to have you answer the door and take you there....ever see the movie law abiding citizen, kind of like that.  no thanks.

plus i walk around my house in my underwear a lot so i dont want to answer the door in that and i am not about to go chance for a guy peddling steaks in his freezer truck outside.

at least they arent the mormons......


They did take Atlanta Brave's sping ball out of WPB, They cut some back room deal for the entire complex back in the day for 10 mill, than immediately turned around and sold the field only for 10 Mill.

They basically acted as a short term loan for the county, and got this giant round building (seats prolly 20k people) for free.....

Have to say it was good business and bad politics.....


Mooosed the entire WPB area out of Braves spring ball over 20 years ago.......





I am just glad i live in a gated community so they cant wake me up. Seem like nice people tho

Good lord - with all those folks knocking on my door I would've stopped answering a long time ago.
