A religion that's losing more members than gaining.
JWs are generally very kind and loving people, although they are very stubborn when hearing facts from non JWs.
The religion is very strict and organized throughout the whole earth.
They all teach the same things, and believe the same things.
They go from door to door teaching people about the bible, and if accepted, they may start a bible study and the person may eventually become baptized.
However, they never force people to accept them and their beliefs.
It's considered dangerous and a to make friends outside the religion, which is one of the reasons it's considered a cult.
Unlike popular belief, pedophiles are kicked out of the congregation, and are reported to the police.
The religion has high requirements, so many infact, that many people can't even be baptized because they don't or can't meet standards. And due to the strict standards, many people are leaving the religion or being disfellowshipped, especially ones that grew up with it.

Person 1: Those Jehovah's Witnesses are nice people, but they are so strict I could never be a part of their religion.
Person 2: Yeah, if I joined I wouldn't last long, it's not worth it, even though I agree with their beliefs on the bible.
