What I had to do was go to all the 'Congregation' things with my dad. Think it was every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday. Two of them was at like this hall thing and then one was at this old ladies house. They would ask questions and my parents would always highlight the answer in this weird book I had and then hold my hand up for me and then everyone would look whilst they made me read out the answer.
Also, every year or something, there was a MASSIVE 'Congregation' of all the Jehovas idiots who went to stadiums and sat there for about 5 hours listening to loads of rubbish. I went to Anfield, Old Trafford, Goodison Park and Man City's grounds for these things and had to sit there all the way through.
Do you know how that would feel for a little kid with nothing to do!?

Worst time of my life. It nearly seperated my from the family because I felt so negative towards it... and because of the Jehova stuff my family were into, I couldnt visit the rest of my family like nan and grandad (who has just died) and uncles, aunts etc etc. So ive never had anyone else to go to in my family. I wonder what wouldve happened to me if I did split away from my family because of this. Maybe I wouldve been adopted or something. Hmm.

So, I guess you can see how strong my views are of any sort of religion. Its not that I disrespect other peoples views and say that what they are doing is wrong... its just that I dont like to do what they do and find it boring for myself.

Hmph.

Dude, go get your parents to read this thread. I'll teach them something.

There aren't any Jehova's Witnesses around me, because they'd all get shot.
I may be lying.

I was chased by two old people brandishing jehovas witnesses leaflets the other day. They followed me up to my front door exclaiming, "Step into the lightness my son."

Scary.

If I could talk to your parents for like however long it takes... id be certain I could make them leave.

Im a strong non-believer (whatever thats called) and whenever people start saying religious stuff I either tell them to shut up, argue with them over how theres no such thing or they have no proper evidence or just walk away and ignore it.
That applied to my Religious Education teachers from Yr7 until Yr9.

Grr... I hate it.

Yeah, I was also born into the crap and they only started listening to me after 10 years. I think I started getting Birthday and Christmas presents when I was about 11-12 and now im 16.

I feel like ive had part of my childhood ripped away from me.

So annoying.

Are your parents still those things?

If youre anything like me and hate the stuff, just complain and complain and complain forever until they leave.

Thats what I did. Now everything is fine and dandy.
