I didn't "miss" any of that information. I was simply responding to a particular point you made in your post, not addressing whether or not the Jehovah's Witnesses really are different than other religions. I find that every Christian I ever talk to thinks that _his_ church is the one church who really takes the Bible literally and seriously, so I expect you to be no different. I was addressing this point that you made:

"The thing is without sounding arrogant is that we follow the Bible carefully. We do not say it is the truth to gain credability or gain money. We are a non profitable organisation."

And to that, I asked if that is any different from any other church, since they are all non-profit. If you share that with other churches, I'm not sure why you'd include it in such a post. The way you said it makes it sound like _you_ are non-profit, and _others_ aren't.
