i bumrushed them
My control pad is shot, so, whenever I try to bum rush Jehovah's Witnesses, Sabin fails and has to read an entire copy of Watchtower, front-to-back, as punishment, which also results in a permanent one point loss to his stamina and magic defense. It's better to run from the battle.

Is Church a catch-all word in the US? Are muslims and jews part of the church too? Up here Church is strictly the catholic/christian denominations, orthodox, roman catholic, anglican, etc.
, Jews a synagogue.
.
Some say Temple.
This is not atypical for JW . I remember attending several JW weddings. I was astonished at how focused it was on serving the husband. The majority of the ceremony was around making sure the husband was ....taken care of. And the wife's job is to ...obey.
This brings up another good point for the OP. Christian values are one thing. JW is also setting up your daughter for a life of misogyny.
Calling it a cult will not likely help your case with your daughter. You need to use good ol practical logic, reasoning, and even Christian logic. I'm no Christian, but I can tell you the stuff from Hank Hanegraaff(bible answer man) is quite good at dealing with other Christian factions.
I have never witness any misogyny
Religion puts fear in people, you just said it yourself. Not just JW, ALL religions.
What happened to just enjoying life and being good to your fellow neighbour.
Religion doesn’t teach morals or decency.
oh yeah, if anything like that were going on, the guys would notice
I've been around JW for a long time, its nothing that bad...They are just god fearing trying to be good at all times. I have never witness any misogyny if anything the women are more vocal then the men from what i have encountered.
Its a lot worse then i thought. The wife & i tried talking to her the other day & she basically broke down crying feeling we are against her. This is the first time she has shown any type of emotion or even talking back. I guess all is loss but hopefully i at least planted a seed in her head. So when she has doubts she will remember our conversation. I dont think ill push it any further for now and just build our relationship from there. Like i said majority JW are good people that i have met. Even the wife's family members are outstanding citizen.
I guess what I meant to say is, Religion is not necessary to be inherently decent and have good morals, though I agree that a lot of religions profess this. If you believing in a higher power makes you feel better, happier, safe... then power to you. But when it does instill fear, creates rules, bounds and suppresses, then it is a problem.
People shouldn’t need Religion to feel secure and happy, or to have purpose in life.
