Jehovah's Witnesses do not form their own conclusions and make up rules. Everything they do comes from the Bible. Read your own Bible and you will learn what God requires of all of us...READ READ READ and stop saying Witnesses make up things ..they are the only ones that read their bibles and look up history to understand better than any religion...look in your own bible and see God's name is JEHOVAH..PSALM 83:18
