the boded statement is false. JEHOVAH's witness is the only true and right christian associatio, dont think am a witness am not am an atheist. Your claim of Jehovahs witnesses not following the bible properly is a false claim, and i will be glad to expantiate your knowledge where you are lacking.

@Poster
What do u take catholics to be?
Instead of u to mind ur church and worship ur God in spirit and in truth u come here to condemn or judge religion. No church in heaven so worship ur God the way u knows best. Stop ur criticitism.
Re: Catholic And Jehovah's Witnesses, Which Is Better? by Ubenedictus(m): 10:34am On May 23, 2012
Hahaha, are you trying to insult catholics or what? It will interest you to know that both your church and the witnesses are breakaway from the catholic church. You cant compare the source to the tint breakaway so i think the right question is suppose to be about your church and the witness which one is better?

If we are to weight them on a scale I think d witnesses are better.....

They dnt engage in idolatry.......

They dnt believe in an inferno,

They are neutral in politics and war...

and as a group collectively and as individuals they practice what they learn

I so like that about them......

what scale are u using? Where did u get the idea that catholic practice idolatry? So you are happy that witness believe there is no hell fire right? And for ur information the CC is not in politic and war is all about the right principle but the CC for a long time hasnt supported war. I have witnesses in my family and they dont practice anything. It is really a bad idea to compare the two and you did a really bad job trying to compare.

i think you misunderstood my point, catholic member have supported some war and im sure that there are protestants in the army, but the church hasnt expressed support for wars in recent times.

how can a christain group preach that its member should not participate in politic Is that right The church does not preach any particular party so i consider it neutral.

U forget how ya popes spare headed d crusades.got involved in the both world wars.....
Who are some of d soldiers in the U.S marines that have gone to fight wars for there country
the crusades happened many centuries ago and im talking about recent time. The marines in the US are both catholics, protestant and atheist.

What
About thÉ biafra war?
Didn't catholic members get involved??
didnt protestants get involved? The catholic church was neutral to the biafra war. Cant you show me one letter from the vatican that supported the war?? No?? The church didnt support that war.

i thought protestants got it from the bible, the papacy in recent times has been political neutral. It teach the christain should be good leader just like the bible preaches but the church is not and does not support a political party

Abi na lie[/quote] good post ijawguy it is true that many catholic support some war as it is sometime necessary to use limited violence to rescue the oppressed from the hands of an unjust oppressor, just open your bible and you will find instance. The catholic church hasnt as a body supported any war for about 100years. Please provide proof that the catholic church support the 2 world wars

If nigeria goes to war today won't ur fellow catholics join in fighting for nigeria?

Won't u urself pick up a gun all in d name of defending ur nation?

Haven't we watched ur Fathers and priests pray for d army to go to war?

Oboy if u want proof go and read ur history,,,............

The catholic church has always been in d fore front of this worlds politics and wars......


Soon u'll start denying what u guys did with d crusade.......


I said as a group and as individual catholics u guys have supported wars....

My relatives who were stunch catholics took part in d biafra war....I know ur relations did too....

Re: Catholic And Jehovah's Witnesses, Which Is Better? by newmusic: 12:58pm On May 26, 2012
Give it to Jehovah Witness, I am not a member anyway... I read their books a lot and I have gained a lot from them and I went to a catholic school where we recite the Angeles every day. They are both good though but Jehovah Witness to me is better...

good question, wont protestants go to war? The engagement of war in catholicism should only happen when all other measures have fail or when it is necessary to resue the oppressed from an unjust oppressor or to defend when attacked in these case a war may be just. Tell me that there are no protestants in the army.
Won't u urself pick up a gun all in d name of defending ur nation?
no i wont unless i have the enemy in my backyard trying to attack my family.
Haven't we watched ur Fathers and priests pray for d army to go to war?
that was some centuries ago. It hasnt happened in recent times

Oboy if u want proof go and read ur history,,,............
atleast the vatican never supported any of the recent wars

The catholic church has always been in d fore front of this worlds politics and wars......
that is a overgeneralisation, the church has not alway been in all wars in human history. The church was not in word war 1 and2 she was not in iran iraq, isreal gaza, israel lebanon. In recent times the church has been neutral in war.

Soon u'll start denying what u guys did with d crusade.......
the church has already accepted responsibility for the crusades nobody is deneying that. The crusade happened centuries ago. The crusade is not a recent war. The crusade was to free jerusalem that was captured by the muslims. I told you before that a war is considered just when against an unjust oppressor.
I said as a group and as individual catholics u guys have supported wars....
that is true to an extent my arguement is that the church has a whole, the vatican to be specific has not support any war in recent times.

My relatives who were stunch catholics took part in d biafra war....I know ur relations did too....
well according to the principles used by st thomas of aquinas, the biafra war should never have happened. There were many available ways to resolve the issues. My relatives didnt support nor did they anything to do with the biafra war, im from the then middle belt, the biafra war didnt affect us and we didnt fight in it
Stop denying bro
Am I wrong??
you are wrong in some things, i was talking about recent times. The time the crusades happened the protestant churches had not even existed. Im not trying to deny anything, i simply want a fair discussion

just a little correction, catholic dont have a prayer called angeles but they have a prayer called 'angelus' (it means 'the angel' the prayer is called angelus becos that is among the first words of the prayer). I also read their books the most surprising thing i found is that they dont believe that a human has a soul. Your post shows your opinion and i respect it

i dn't normally comment on
such issues as dis but i hate it wen people use wrong premise to come to a fallacious conclusion. The catholics believe dat man is made UP of d body, spirit, soul n mind. I believe no church is PERFECT n ur church won't take u to heaven,its only a means of attaining heaven.Having said dat,am nt going to criticise any church, but d ONLY thing I can't get abt d WITNESSES is there believe dat there's no HELL,wen d evidence of hell is scattered throughout d new testament.

It does seem like The Church can take you (of course, with your 'co-operation') to heaven...and also shut you out of heaven (if you don't co-operate), according to Jesus' words.

THE CHURCH he built on Peter the rock.
