    Oh man, I'm on such a spiritual high from this thread - your experiences (the good ones!) and just the whole conversation is just so lovely!

    I do believe each of our hearts hear a different spiritual beat.
    This is how I feel too. I understand everyone is on their own path so I accept their beliefs.

    Sure, I'd love to save everyone else from their delusions but I'm sure everyone else feels the same about wanting to save me from mine I had a good chat to my MIL about that actually. If I wasn't against going to people's homes and bothering them with a better way of life then I'd be out there door knocking too! I can see the appeal. So for that reason, if someone starts talking to me about religion I generally just tell them I already have my beliefs and smile and accept that they have theirs.

    I have lived in this house for 2 years now and never had a JW visit!!

    I actually like them! LOL. Only bc I like learning about any religion. Although I'm not interested in joining so I'd probably just waste their time.

    Great thread!!

    Lol Heaven - as far as me and most JWs are concerned, any time spent talking about Jehovah and the bible is not wasted

    Last time they came I said I'm Catholic and they left. Maybe they thought I couldn't be saved .

    We have a sign now which says. No we do NOT want Austar. No we do NOT want to change electricity company. And No we do NOT want to change religion.

    well we live rural, and I must say I feel very pleased when I have a landrover full of JW drive up my rickety driveway once every 6 months. I love that they are so involved in their religion and beliefs that come torrential rain or heatwave, these people are out there, attempting to spread their beliefs. Every single JW that has visited us has been pleasant and had lovely conversations...not necessarily about religion, because they pretty much know that we aren't involved in any practising religion, but just general things. They wave us goodbye and off they go. I dont understand the faith, I have no idea between the differences in christianity and JW, but I know they are very dedicated people.
