In the lecture they focused on Jehovah's witnesses and they put a negative light on them by saying they come round door to door which they do but until you have one living next door to you then you can judge them badly. To me they have been very nice people they may have talked about religion to me but never forced me to change my self or religion to become a Jehovah's witnesses. There is also many people who claim religion helps them out through the dark times but a sect i think who are to religious are the tablin because they follow rules from 20o years ago which is OK but times change such as women's rights which the tabailn did not give. also another religious group who may be to religious is AL quedia who uses things like jihad for there own reasons for commtting random acts of volence which are not needed like 7/7 in london but religion can be helpfull to keep you to be a slaen livin person ie like me i may not belive everything religion says but i keep to two strict rules no smoke or drink so thats how im religious but i cant think of a way you can be to reiligous but like i say each to there own.

haven’t had this lecture yet ……….. who’s been talking about Jehovah’s Witnesses? Anyway…. there are quite a few of them in my family and you don’t feel guilty about knocking on someone’s door when you’re spreading what you think is the truth. (i.e. as opposed to a vacuum cleaner salesman who might be bending the truth a little, but still has a legitimate reason for knocking your door)
I kind of thought the lecture on religion was going to be about being too religious, i.e. fanatical, shouting at people in the street, JW’s are hardly in this category. I know I’ve had the experience of someone being nice to you on the bus – and then you find out they’re a Christian and they go off in a different direction speaking about the white horses of the apocalypse.... I'm looking forward to this lecture anyway
