I quite like Jehovah's witnesses. And can't think of a horse joke that isn't already in this thread. No points :(

As someone who knows Jehovah's Witnesses and what they believe, I must say that I find it hard to believe the OP's claim that his GF is getting so many texts.

If she is, however, then please bear in mind that they are (in their own minds) trying to do what's best for her. Also a polite request to stop is all that's normally required. JW's do try to respect the wishes of those who do not want anything to do with their beliefs.
 
Time to gallop yourself up to speed, show them how much of a stallion you really are with a newly purchased colt.

Meh, i know the basics and their beliefs, and they know that she chooses to no longer follow it. They are just choosing to just try and scare her back into it, knowing she may be susceptible to the scare scaremongering as she used to believe .
I know in their eyes they are trying to do her a favour and save her, but she doesn't attending meetings and hasn't for years so why bother? And why haven't the witnesses I know bothered texting me and tried converting me?

They are jehovahs witnesses and not exclusive brethren or something like that?

Having family who are in various christian groups loosely splintered off from exclusive brethren I can identify with the OP, some of them can be quite bothersome because they completely believe they are in the right and doing the best for your soul, etc.

Because somewhere in the Gospels Jesus says something like 'If you keep knocking they will eventually open the door' and that's why no matter how many times you tell them to go away they will always come back.
I know loads of JoJo's and helped to build 2 Kingdom Hall's in Stoke which was one of the greatest things I've ever seen - plot of land to functional Hall in 2 weeks.
They plan it to the nth degree and JoJo's come from all over the British Isles at exactly the right time to do their bit.
