You quoted my question.//And exactly what did you "witness"?//
Let help you again.
Of course, a statement made like that does sound rather blunt at first, if you don’t believe the Bible, but what do you have in mind when history shows religions.
Allowing history to answer that question focused attention on the real problem.
Then some questions were raised as to the politically neutral position of Jehovah’s witnesses.
Now, Jehovah’s witnesses urge their members to refrain from voting in elections and not showing their allegiance to the flag in some countries. Why is that?
Well, to rephrase it slightly for your sake
It’s an individual choice on the part of each member on the matter of voting; but we believe that historically, Biblically, we are sound in this position of not being involved in the political scene.

All things, therefore, that you want men to do to you, you also must likewise do to them”? If professed Christians heeded that command,
It Could solve the bulk of today’s problems, including that of war, well If professed Christians heeded that command, there would be no need for police forces, jails ,no thieves, no greedy people, no drunkards, and one could go on and on.
Yes true Christians live by that highest standard.—Matt. 7:12,
