No truer words could be uttered, everyone that believes in god thinks they have the "correct religion" but who knows 100%? Every one of them be it a Mormon, JW, Jew, Catholic, Buddhist or any other religion think they are correct and the others wrong.
Your idea of what a JW believes, BTW, is WAY off. Maybe if your truly curious about someones belief, instead of an e-fight on a internets forum, PM someone you know is of that faith and ask an honest question.
It all boils down to what YOU are comfortable with, some are happy not believing in god others are hard core into religion still others are casual about it.
Its your choice, thats why we have free will.

It is very refreshing to see someone who takes religion seriously is also willing to concede that that no one knows for 100%. The blind faith that is propagated by some many religions (especially the Catholics, to whom I technically belong) is extremely frustrating, to the point that I have more or less completely turned away organized religion. The final straw for me was when our church asked anyone visiting that day who was not a member of the church to refrain from taking communion. That seemed very counter-intuitive and I attempted to get up and leave but my parents would not let me.
