Damn that sucks I’m sorry you had to go through that.

I always just took the pamphlet, said thanks, and goodbye. Could never imagine yelling at some poor kid.

I used to love those guys, when I was in my first apartment they used to do that area all the time. I’d just left a super religious home and was really bitter and had huge chunks of the bible memorized. I would go verse by verse tearing into their arguments but since I was actually engaging they would hang out for a while. I like pretend that I changed a couple of minds.

I mean, I hate when Messianics steal holidays, but pentecost/shavuot isn’t terribly pagan, discounting its role as a summer wheat harvest celebration. Why not celebrate pentecost?

Funny thing is, almost every older JW will turn a blind eye if a loved one needs a transfusion. They just can’t bring themselves to say, do it. But you better believe they won’t complain if it sorta accidently happens and it saves their family member.
