You can tell them a mile away! Like the Mormans, they are IMMACULATELY dressed! LOL! They look as though they have come straight out of a tailor's window each sporting a Windsor knot on his tie. I was trying to watch the Nine-o-Clock news several years ago, when there was a knock at the door - double glazing. By the time I got rid of him I'd missed the main points of the news. Five minutes later somebody else was at the door canvassing for some political party. Seventeen minutes into the news a third and final disturbance, this time from a J W handing me free literature, including three back issues of The Watchtower, their magazine. Having missed the news I shut my eyes and humoured him, nodding occasionally. My parting words? "Go in peace, Brother." I then looked out of the window and saw about four of them rolling up with laughter. He'd obviously told them what I said and obviously they had a great sense of humour.
It's not just about not being able to take blood - just one single passage in the Bible is what the base their whole belief on. No, the biggest single eye opener is the fact that, according to them, my Saviour never died on a cross - he was nailed to an upright POST! The whole of Christianity got it wrong. I put the literature where it belonged - IN THE BIN! What they came out with there was a personal insult to Christians of every race or creed. I wasn't a practising Christian at that time just a normal C of E, but I took that very personally! 
I have respect for anyone who follows their own faith and also for those who don't believe in a God, and I have no intention to argue for or against, nor ridicule those who follow their scriptures.
I just like to come with a different idea.
Say there is a non-physical supreme being, who created us in its image. We would be supreme beings as well, but in a physical form.
And if we were, we would have a connection with our creator, like a parent in a way. A connection that might be something that we could feel, maybe our intuition, some kind of sense, a feeling that gives us impulses when things are right or wrong, on or off.
Instead of being powerless,small beings we would have that guidance system within us all the time that comes straight from that supreme being and connects us.
Maybe that's all we need to follow.
And no women! 
"There was silence in heaven for about half-an-hour" It's there, in one of the verses.
