Jehovah's Witnesses claim that Jesus is not God, and that Jesus is a created being separate from the father, as a result (this information was pulled from the Watchtower website).
The contradiction I find is this: Isaiah 9:6,
"For there has been a child born to us, there has been a son given to us; and the princely rule will come to be upon his shoulder. And his name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace."
What is more, I quoted this verse directly from the New World Translation, straight from the Watchtower website.
The Jehovah's Witnesses' own translation even supports the Deity of Christ! My recommendation is this: if a Jehovah's Witness knocks on your door, ask for their bible (the New World Translation) and show them this passage. Perhaps they might be amazed. At the very least, they will be forced to explain their own bible away to support their doctrine.
