I've been hearing a lot about Jehovah's Witnesses. Could someone elaborate on how they differ from other Christians other than the fact that they have a "non-trinitarian" belief.

Just ask one and they will be happy to tell you, since one of their main goals is proselytizing.
According to the wikipedia link they believe Jesus was a "begotten" son of God...but they do not believe in the trinity so what exactly is Jesus to them? A prophet?

Interesting. We LDS believe that Adam was the pre-mortal Michael.He is Micheal the Arch Angel.

Well, we do believe that he returned to the spirit realm, but then we believe that is the case with everyone who dies. In other words, we don't believe in a soul-sleep. To be perfectly honest, I'm really not sure about our stance as to his current status as the "chief angel."Do you believe that Adam returned to the spirit realm and resumed his position as the 'chief Angel' after his death?

Have they not taken the tracts you've tried to hand out? I thought the Baha'i faith frowned on proselytizing.One of the differences is that they have a HUGE fear of reading anything someone from another religion offers them, and typically refuse to read (or often even touch) it!
So much for open-mindedness.
