I have a soft spot for Jehovah's Witnesses,
they seem so guileless (unlike other Christians)
and I always tell them that Entarteten like me
wore pink triangles in concentration-camps,
while they had purple ones.
(Though I might have ended up with more
than one triangle, being
'work-shy', 'anti-social', pacifist...
They are kind to dogs.
I tell them that if there's a non-jihadist heaven
they'll be there. Maybe I'll be with them.
I always tell them, too,
that I am a Transcendental Atheist.
The one who did the spiel today
was so sweet and beautiful,
gentle and earnest
that I wanted to hug and kiss her
and bring her in
and tell her the Good News
of Transcendental Atheism.

I was stopped by a Jehovah's Witness yesterday on the street who asked me, 'Do you think humanity is getting worse and the earth is doomed?' I answered yes, and she was so pleased by the unexpected affirmation that she broke out in a big smile and offered me one of her leaflets. I took it, smiled and we parted, both pleased by the exchange.
Once you let go your anger [ :) ] with all the miseries of the world, especially your favorite targets, USA, capitalism and that old bagg, the Canadian Head of State, and let your happy inside come out, it's a pleasure to read.
I would love to see the "outcome" of that visit :)
I’m always very suspicious of people who condemn the Jehovahs.
They’re very sweet, have a hard time proselytising, and are never intimidating like the Mormons.
I’m pleased, Karl, that you brought a smile to a JW face – though, it must be said, they smile easily and warmly.
And this young woman smiled in my sour old heart...
Jindra -
there are too many gung-ho optimists about.
I just try to spread
a little realism
on other people's bread.

PROPOSITIONS YOUNG JEHOVAH'S-WITNESS VIRGIN...
I drive past by a couple of Jehovah Witnesses every Saturday and give them a wave and a toot toot of my car horn. They stand on a street corner in Edinburgh by the Meadows handing out the Watchtower to whoever will take them. One used to be a Catholic, the other was a Church of Scotland regular. I don't know why they chose the Jehovahs instead of their original church but they seem happy enough now. I even pull over and stop and chat with them for a few moments sometimes just for some words of wisdom. I always cross one of their palms with silver before they hand me the latest copy of The AWAKE leaflet. The jury is still out...
And young Jehovah's Witness leaves virgo intacta
