Just had an hour long chat with a JW couple who came to the door.
What was very interesting is that girl converted from CofE (she used the term Anglican, not Christian) to JW because she couldn't get answers from her vicar.

They said they'll be back.
Must say I enjoyed the cut an thrust of the debate, not that they could get many words out [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Hi Elaine. What may be worth trying to get the girl to think about is, where does her faith lie?

From what you have said, it seems that her faith is based on answers to questions. You can show that because you have a relationship with God, your faith is in Him, not in answers about Him. So if someone asks you a question you cannot answer, you don't stop believing in God.

It seems some of my anwers might have been a bit too truthful.
They haven't been back yet.
I do get a bit full-on, maybe I should've moved slower.

I hope I did make them think, and maybe question the organisation they belong to.
