Title: Jehovah's Witnesses

They have just been tound our estate, usual mix of old biddies and crackpots.

However, there was one girl with them in her early 20's who was absolutley jaw-droppingly gorgeous. If she didn't have an old guy with her I would have invited her in to show me the way to heaven.

We have one at our work. She's a bit of a loner but generally ok. However when people bring in cakes or biscuits she always has to ask what the occasion is. If its for a birthday or something similar she won't take one.

We had some Plymouth Brethren at school. None of them were that fit. It must be hard to try and interact with other kids when you are not allowed to listen to music or watch TV/films.

I had them around at the door as well today, they got their usual response "Look, I've always been polite and said no thanks, I have asked you to ensure that his address is not called at in the future, now will you please fuck off!"  And this guy just wouldn't take no for an answer and was still rabbitting on, guess he saw me as a challenge!!  He did go when I reminded him I had told him to go away and he was now trespassing, bastard even smiled at me and said have a good day!!!!!!!! :doh: :bye: :bye:

I've noticed a fair number of Mormons around recently and they're equally as mental. I chatted to some, because I was cornered, offended them, I think/hope, and then noticed them cycle off. Since then I've noticed loads of smartly dressed, early 20s men, riding around town in pairs that appear to fit the same mould.

Hence the South Park mormon episode and then The Book of Mormon.

I hope you tell her the real reason a few days later and that she's now going to burn in hell due to her sinning.

The worst part of all this religious shit for me is parents forcing in on their kids rather than letting them decide for themselves.  It's the reason my parents didn't have me christened and I'm glad they didn't, I'm as non religious as they come and I wouldn't like it if I had been as its not the sort of thing you can undo.

A girl I was at school with was a JW, she wasnt allowed to do Christmas cards or any of the other shit even though she wanted too. Pretty rough on a kid who doesn't really understand it.

Yeah but if you are as non-religious as they come you wouldn't care because being christened would have no meaning  :D

FWIW we didn't get either of our children christened. Thought it might be a bit hypocritical. Each to their own though - 99.9% of religious people are just like 99.9% of non religious people.

My old science teacher is one and his name sounds exactly like Bruce Wayne but it isn't actually Bruce Wayne. Safe to say he hated being called Batman.

Anyway, he came round my house a couple of years ago. That was awkward. "Sorry Mr. S I'm just not buying it."

Hmmmm...that's a little bit naive!  Do you really think that there would have been many fewer wars had there been no religious disagreement?  It is true that there is a religious element to many conflicts, but I suggest that very few are about religion at their core....just an excuse to feed our craze for power - a human condition, not particularly a religious one.

Yeah but if you are as non-religious as they come you wouldn't care because being christened would have no meaning.

It does have meaning though, it would mean I was technically an official member of the god squad. Bit like if someone bought you an Oxford United fan club membership, you might hate them but you'll still be a member of their fan club.


Title: Re: Jehovah's Witnesses
Post by: Batch on Tuesday, November 29, 2011, 15:41:20
But you think god doesn't exist. Therefore there are no consequences of being christened or not being christened. You are only part of the god squad to the god squad memebers.

Oxford United do exist. Unfortunately.

I don't encounter JWs too often. However, I learnt recently that their whole theology is based on a mistranslation of one word in John's gospel. I'll have to resist the urge to sit them down and explain it to them next time they call!

As for the whole Christening thing, I don't really see the point in it. but at the same time I don't see much reason to be upset if you were Christened, as it's not something that binds you to be a Christian.

Hindus do not eat beef and many are vegetarians.
Muslims do not eat pork or drink alcohol.
Sikhs do not eat beef.
Jews do not eat pork.
Buddhist can eat meat, but they think about where it came from. As far as I can tell road kill is the only safe meat, morally speaking.

And so for those reasons, they are off my list.

This has been a good sunday so far, I was watching the Brizzle Wovers game on the box, when I disturbed by two rather religious people at my front door. I decided the best way to handle this situation would be to answer the door in nothing but my boxers, hopefully this would scare them off so i could then continue watching tv in my boxers. But noooo there they stood they asked me if i religous. So I ripped off some of Russell Howards stand up, I am sometimes religious yes, they asked me to explain so I said 'when you stub your toe you say oh god, and at the height of sexual ecstacy you say oh god' They then said thats not we meant, so then I said well please clarify they were saying how god moves in mysterious ways and what my thoughts were, so I then said 'Yeah god is really cool. we've on a 10 game unbeaten run and we're looking pretty good everygame.' Again they still stood there they asked me if I was celebrating xmas this year and would I be going to church. So I then said to them I'll be spending xmas with my family and friends but unfortunatly I wouldn't be going to church this year. I was then asked why? to whch my reply was we're playing away. I then said it was lovely talking to you today but I must be going my xmas tree is waiting to be decoreated, merry xmas.
