thats the main prob i have religion. majority of them start from the day your born and it SUCKS cuz they basically teach yuo how lucky you wereto be born catholic/witness/etc and how everyone else who wasdnt born tthis way and dont convert will go to hell.
not that hell sounds so scary to me but to a small child suuure..
anyway that is exactly why i aint forcin my child into shit (not that i have a religoin to force them into anyway) once they are older MAYBE i will mention it to them and on their own they can figure out whatever the hell they want. of course ill be there to guide them i mean if my kid came hom e 'i want to be a witness' hmm id most likely beat the crap out of em
a lot of rules from back in those times though arose not only from myth but necessity. for example, good friday how you dont eat meat. well think about it, meat is expensive... spend a day not eating it. so perhaps this had something to do with the fact that transfusions can be dangerous? the bible also says not to eat meat that is too bloody and duh raw meat isnt exactly the safest thing for us.
OH YEH i remmebered what i was gonna say. they are completely against abortion. i even gave her the question 'ok lets say some dude comes into your house, holds you at gunpoint, ties yuo up and tortures and murders you family in front of u.. then rapes yuo saying he wants you to remmeber him forever. then leaves u. you get pregnant.. would you keep the baby?'
she said yes, she would.
actually, her grandmother was raped.. conceiving her mother. raped becuase..... she was a witness :rolleyes:
