jehovah’s witnesses were drilled with the idea that all governments are from satan and that we should have nothing to do with anything involving support of the government, voting, or political talk for one party or another.. now that you are out, is patriotism important to you?

is voting important to you?

are you supportive of your country?.

What is a guy like me to do? Born in Panama, from a Venezuelan mother and a German father, raised in Honduras and now living in Germany. Yes, that Honduras and that Venezuela.

To be honest, having lived in ALL of those countries at different times of my life, I learned to love them and appreciate them, but it was always hard to be patriotic per se. I consider myself a citizen of the world, and I've learned that it is more about the people and not the subjective concept of "nation". In every country I have lived, I have found lovely people, as well as people who were relatively easy to despise.

Do I vote here in Germany? Of course I do! I am part of this society now, so I participate in it.

"We don't do that" - Serena Williams talking about celebrating birthdays

by vivalavida in

i guess you can be physically out, like in a huge way, but definitely mentally in.. serena williams claims she won't be celebrating her daughter's first birthday.. i did know people like that, raised as a jw but never actually baptizing.

that didn't mean they were not messed up in the head though..

@blisterfeet - Yes, it is amazing how little is necessary to actually mess up a kids mind. In my opinion the problem has to do with the fact that kids trust their parents. They're their first contact with the world at large, so what they say or teach, goes. By the time they're old enough to think by themselves, it requires a concerted effort to eliminate those beliefs.

@pale.emperor & diogenesister - EXACTLY!!
