Good lord (<--- or whichever is legal in Russia) the Jehovah Witnesses are outlawed in Russia? Boy the Christians here are going to be outraged. Just wait until they hear about it...just give it a minute...

Derps of the fanatical right wing in the US, do you see what it really looks like when 'Christianity is under threat'? Of course the various 'Christian' groups in the US have those groups they don't like much and I'm thinking they will be silent as a floating snitch about the plight of the 7th Day Adventists.

They have extreme(not violence) views but they are not violent. A JW might commit an act of violence, but it more than likely has nothing to do with religion.

I have heard them described as having a cult like atmosphere from members that left the group but to ban them seems pretty extreme to me. The other religions must feel threatened.

Extremist Jehovah's Witnesses. Should have been a clue to thread fail right there. Pussboy is still acting like he's on slow go.

 

[SYTFE]

In all seriousness, those JW's are really aggressive with leaving pamphlets on my door.

Some I have met are pretty uppity.

If you tell them you are Jewish they are gone in a puff of smoke. Try it next time, it really works. Its like kryptonite.

oh yeah. They will kick your ass out in a heartbeat. You leave, good luck coming back. Very strict. But they don't blow shit up and honestly they don't even dog other religions. That's my experience anyways. My in laws are JW. My wife was. She hated it. No birthday parties, no national anthem, no friends that were not JW...

JW are good people for the most part , no violence that i have ever seen .

true-----they do pamphlet attacks------I particularly like their pamphlets for subway
reading. I have never heard of anyone DYING from a pamphlet attack. ------I have
heard of LOTS OF PEOPLE DYING FROM BAATHIST attacks-----Russia always
supports Baathist and-----celebrates the piles of dead left in their wake

They can use their groups to be sneaky and cause other people problems just like any other cult type factions can do.

Some of the religious fanatics around here were involved in the background of stirring up lies and hate against us. Although they were the ones doing the lying and hating. They have lawyers and judges in their groups too. We do not belong to any specific church group.

Russia has been neutering religion for a long time.

Idiot Putin ban those who want to live according to the Bible teaching. Probably it would be better if Russians go to 'priests'-businessman, drink alcohol, consume narcotic, smoke and commit adultery.
An Orthodox 'priest' blessing tanks and nukes is non-extremist, but JW who refuse to serve in Army and be violent are extremists......

 

[Auld Phart]

They should demand their First Amendment right to Freedom of Religion.


ooops

wrong country

 

[irosie91]

the "cult-like" aspect of JW 'ism-------is "disfellowship"-------they throw people who
defy the rules----OUT----a kind of
