Roman Catholics in Poland have been warned against conversing with Jehovah's Witnesses, a religious movement which has spread rapidly in the country since the collapse of communist rule 17 years ago. "It is important to be aware who we are talking to--members of a non-Christian community who do not recognize the dogmas of Holy Trinity or Incarnation and propose a false path to life and salvation," the church's Poznan archdiocese said in an October 5 statement.

The Witnesses, founded in the United States in 1872, claim 129,000 members in 1,800 congregations in Poland, making them the country's third largest religious community after the Catholic and Orthodox churches. Said the Poznan archdiocese: "It should be stressed that not every Catholic is capable of engaging in theological dialogue with Watchtower Society members," especially not those Catholics "who lack basic knowledge of their own faith and cannot use Holy Scripture properly."
