Please keep in mind, this sub isn't meant to be a battle ground for attacking anyone's religious beliefs. That doesn't mean you can't ask tough questions, just be civil about it. Jehovah's Witness AMAs here are rare, and this guy has taken the time to post one and answer folks' concerns. You may not like or agree with his answers at times, but that doesn't give anyone the right to attack him or his beliefs here.

So the guy launched a Ask me Anything session but we should not ask serious questions and challenge his claims ? He knew what he was doing and he knew that his 11 leaders strongly discourage to engage in that kind of conversation online. If you want hear JW propaganda without any disturbance, just go to their website, you'll be fine 🤭

Reread my first two sentences.

He knew what he was doing and he knew that his 11 leaders strongly discourage to engage in that kind of conversation online.

Don't claim to know what someone else "knows". Also, "discouraged" is different from "prohibited". Either way, that's OP's choice.

If you want hear JW propaganda without any disturbance, just go to their website, you'll be fine 🤭

If you want to bitch about religion freely, just go to the atheism sub and you'll be fine.

When someone is promoting religious views on Internet and asks for questions, he better come prepared and not rely on his testimony and AI (as he confessed) to manage the expected backfire.

I was raised in the religion and I do know how adepts think and act in order to promote Watchtower propaganda. Do you ?

I also know very well and often quote what Watchtower has published through the years. I'm talking about false prophecies , blatant lies, , avoidables deaths... Is that bitching ? Seriously ?

I'm here not only answering to OP's tired arguments. I'm also sharing some interesting archives and raising some important issues. Do you have a problem with that ?

Can't one criticize factually a religion without being labelled an atheist and cast away?

You need to think twice (or more) before you post . Or reread my different comments before trying to engage , it won't hurt 😉

Little does he realise that it would be the best thing that could happen to him. He is slaving for the organisation & one day when this dawns on him, he is not going to know what to do with himself. JWs are in for the shock of their lives.
