Would you consider the Jehovah's Religion as a Cult?

Well except for the fact that JW's don't speak to their family members if they are disfellowshipped. JW's can't ask questions about their religion nor can they get Blood transfusions or Organ transplants and they are not allowed to associate with anybody outside of their Religion (if they do they will get marked).

I know Baptists and Pentecostals who do the same.

General ideas constituting the same thing. As in.. the Jehovah's religion to be a normal religion.

I am not bashing the Religion, I am stating that they have (apparently in my opinion) different ideas of how a Religion is constructed. I have nothing against the Religion, beliefs are beliefs. I was more so curious as to how people with more Religious Insight would view the Religion.

I haven't seen any mention from you regarding how Jehovah Witnesses think a religion is "constructed". I'm interested in hearing more.

As for whether or not they're a cult, I'd have to say "no". They are no more a cult than the other Christian denominations.

I wouldn't say they are a cult a bit odd but who isn't? They did give me a pamphlet once where Jesus looked like Kareem Abdul Jabaar and had an afro. Kind of groovy I guess it made me chuckle though.
