Default Re: Problems At Home

He's a good member and I enjoyed his presence. I think he's just confused on where to draw the line with religious teachings.

Jehovah's Witnesses also practice neutrality. Meaning they won't particpate in wars. And yet he's an avid WarCraft player. A complete war-based game that involves animated creatures killing each other in a violent manner. There seems to be no problem there in terms of it offending his religious beliefs. Sure, he's not actually taking part in a war but he's condoning the idea by playing a game that involves it.

Another Jehovah's Witness offense is gambling. And yet our friend had no issues with the doubloon system and the vBookie bets we've held.

So that's my gripe with his behavior. You either defend every aspect of your beliefs and it's practices or you don't. But only choosing to be offended by select situations and scenarios doesn't work.
