Jehovas' Witnesses are an interesting group. They enjoy the freedoms and liberties that they receive by living in the United States, but at the same time they refuse to partake in voting, national celebrations and have basically created their own nation within a nation. I find it hypocritical for them to act in this manner and believe that they should gather from around the world and all go and live together on some island.
They corrupt others with their crazy beliefs and go door to door preaching about things that have nothing to do with the bible. A perfect example is not participating in sports. I think it is wrong to hold your child back from sports as participating in these activities is a part of growing up and has absolutely nothing to do with religion. The problem with this religion is that people are restricted from thinking for themselves and their lives are dictated by the Watchtower. If you ask me this is nothing more than thought control and the "religious policies" are created by a group of men who decide the future of those who do not have the independent thought to make their own decisions.
Sincerely,
Disgusted
