How do I properly handle these Jehova's Witnesses that keep coming to my home? How do you go about religion?
A month ago I got a surprise door-bell ring at my house, and I usually don’t answer it, unless it’s someone I’m expecting, or my housemate decides to get it. In anycase, I opened the door and there was this woman with a girl, and they seemed very well-intentioned, but yet were looking at me like I was the son of Satan. lol. Anyways, they introduced themselves and started going on and I told them that i’m not exactly a novice to religion and am not dark-hearted enough to turn them away. They seemed like nice people and I listened to what they preached. They think we’re So near the end times and it’s so late, and well, obviously the world has tons of evil in it, and they’re doing what they believe they’re supposed to do, to get people to turn to God, and not end up being "lost" and fall into the devil’s hands, or even if its not that extreme, they don’t want others to suffer and lead lives of "sin."
So they gave me a bible and some other pamphlets, and I told them that I personally tried dabbling in religion, and do include many of its basic golden rule principles and try to apply it to my life, and I do believe to a degree, but I’m not a fool, and I won’t chuck my common sense and realism out the window either, and I also told them that I don’t believe that I have to go to their churches or follow specific denominations in order for me to be saved or to have a relationship with God; I told them it was personal between me and God.
they seemed to be alright with me and realized that I was "on the right path"but needed help as well.
They came back a few more times with different people, and kept giving me new materials, and seemed to after a while get more comfortable with me and considered us to be "family", and what not. My housemate does not like them and my family is largely un-religious, so they wouldn’t even bother.
However, agree or disagree or even strongly dislike religion, these are people too, human beings, so I treated them as such. I’m NOT going to be mean and nasty and pour my "wrath" over people who are seemingly well intentioned and are giving me bibles.
However, I find their showing up at my house every week sometimes twice a week a bit rude and too much, especially when I claim I’d like to take it at my own pace and what not.
They claim that’s okay to a degree, but "time is running out."
Now that I find just to be a bit ridiculous because througout human history there have been people in I’m sure every generation that thought that time is almost running out, and what not, and that we need to act now now now. When times are going tough, people panic more.
Our world currently isn’t in a great shape and people are panicking.
These Jehova’s Witnesses definitely seemed to be a bit in that whole "life is tough, life’s hard, life’s evil, thank GOD for God’s Kingtdom coming back soon oh so soon oh so soon," and that’s that.
they seem more truly terrified and scared of this life/world,…and don’t seem to be all that loving….they mean well, but you can clearly see that they’re convinced 10 fold of their own beliefs, want others to basically assimilate/conform..and they definitely do not encourage character development, creativity or have vast expertise in a variety of subjects such as mathematics, science, medicine, history , business, etc.
They know the bibles inside out and can talk very sharp-tongued and sem to be prepared for spiritual warfare,….but they aren’t the most courteous or mentally healthy of folks, in certain ways, and they judge way too much. Everythign that’s not perfectly alligned with what they believe in is pretty much Satanic.
Now,…after having to personally myself go through a hellish life, as we all do to a degree, meaning life CAN be tough….and I’ve already put up with other people clamoring how their religion is right, specifically when I was younger, my family had alot of issues with their friends over converting to Islam…and now I get this….
and these religious people seem to be so "NOW" oriented.
It does make me very paranoid and scared myself. SO instead of feeling love, or closer to God, I get more scared and think I’m going to go to hell or whatever.
I’m NOT denying that there is sin, evil, and good, and I’m not denying them or whatever, but at the same time, i’m entitled to my own life, freedom of mind, and freedom to choose my own life and lead it.
If we work hard, and pay for what we own…why should we let other people, even religious people like the Jehova’s Witnesses tell us what to do with our time, money and minds?
I feel like they’re trying to suck me into their world.
Also, you can’t just trust anyone or think just beacause they hide behind a bible that they’re well intentioned. My housemate had one of his family members die because jehova’s witnesses were at that hospital or worked there, and denied him a blood transfusion. Others tried to get them to give over ther entire will and life s
It’s getting to the point where it’s like I can’t even concentrate on how to operate machinery, fix up a compjuter or do anything intellectual because these religious folk believe that it’s all from satan. They literally just are so VAGUE with their beliefs too.
Thteyd have you give up your car, computers, technology, fashionable clothes…hair products, EVERYTHING..
they’d pretty much destroy our society as we know it, and have us all live in these chastised states, and we’d revert back to the "dark ages" if they ahd their way.
They believe all this advancement is EVIL and of the devil.
now how does someone BEGIN to go about THAT?
all in all this is sscaring me. religion, god, satan, this whole new world order stuff…its ALL scary, and i don’t know how to go about it anymore.
I don’t want people telling me…I’m going to go to hell just because I was born, and because I’m the way I am.
I’m a unique individual worthy love and having a happy life just like everyone else, and then you get these people to scare you.
They mean well, but they scare.
And let’s not even go into the satanic stuff…that’s just downright creepy.
what’s the BEST thing to do in my shoes?
They *are* trying to suck you into their world, and it sounds like they’re really getting to you. What you’re describing is a classic approach for winning converts. Once they find someone who seems winnable–and you do because you didn’t send them away and even agreed with some of what they said–then they intensify their efforts. Have they suggested having a Bible study in your home yet? If not, I bet that’s coming soon.
Having pegged you as a potential convert it’s unlikely they’ll leave you alone without a strong request on your part. You’ll have to flat out tell them that you don’t want them coming around anymore.
They’re getting you so flustered that you just might end up joining them if you don’t get them to stop their recruiting. So if you don’t want to become a Jehovah’s Witness, you’d better send them on their way.

Pray about it before hand and then study the Bible and try to show them the way.

It’s easy to read up on things that contradict what the JW’s say. If it bothers you so much, read about their shady beginnings

why can’t you be an assertive adult and say I AM NOT INTERESTED…..I had a lady follow me around for a year and I had to be flat out offensive for her to leave me alone.
