Jehovahs Witnesse are not the perfect religion.

Before I begin, I would like to make a few "public service announcements". I am not a Jehovah's Witnesses, so any arguments considering bias for that branch of Christianity are not valid. If you are a Jehovah's Witnesses and you really wanted to take this debate, you are free to create another debate concerning this subject. This might be a mind-blowing concept to some, but I debate to debate. Essentially, I am asking the voters and my opponent to not crucify me (no pun intended) for defending a religion I am not a part of. I also request that arguments of this sort are not brought into the debate: "i am right becaus God created man teh bible proves this peopl who disagre are stupid beacuse they dont undestand how much god lovs everyone but prolly hates you. even look at jesus that is proff" Finally, I wish by opponent good luck and ask the voters to base their vote on who did the better debating not which side they agree with. First, I urge the voters to take look at the resolution. It states "Jehovahs Witnesse are not the perfect religion." Although there is the obvious fact that "Jehovahs Witnesse" do not exist (a fact which I am willing to look over, if my opponent is willing to), there is something else that must be paid attention to. My opponent is advocating that with certainty that "Jehovahs Witnesse are not the perfect religion". As I can argue against this any way I so chose, I will counter this with possibility. To put it simply, I am advocating "Jehovahs Witnesse POSSIBLY are not the perfect religion." Thus, Pro must prove with significant evidence that "Jehovahs Witnesse" are beyond a doubt not the perfect religion. For clarification in this debate, I offer the definition of religion religion - a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, esp. when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs. http://dictionary.reference.com... Hence, what must be debated is whether the set of beliefs that Jehovah's witnesses have are not perfect. I will show you the significance of this later in my argument. Now, I will analyze my opponent's round 1 statements. "Jehovahs Witnesses think they are the next best thing to God" Until my opponent shows that this is part of their set of beliefs (perhaps some religious texts could help), this is irrelevant. Also, he fails to show how this makes the religion "not perfect" "they immediatly shut out people that show no interest in their religion." Once again, my opponent has not shown that this is part of their beliefs and fails to show how this makes the religion "not perfect". "They think they are the #1 religion and that if you aren't one of them you aren't going to inheret an everlasting life on earth." Not to sound redundant, but please see above reasoning for why this quotes are wrong and apply it to this sentence. "They think all temptation is the Anti Christ." Once more, apply my earlier reasoning to this quote. Thus, as you (the voters) can see, my opponent's entire round one argument is irrelevant until further notice. As such, he as failed to fulfill his burden of proof and must automatically lose the debate. Your turn.
