And....if I may....I need to question one thing...

Why does he only tell Jehovas to do this? Why not the other religions that "worship" him in one way or another?

Well he tells everybody to do so, read Mathew 28:18-20 and Mathew 24:14.
It seems that we're pretty much the only ones that listen.

I agree with you that religion causes much trouble. But I believe in 1 'true' religion. But that's a totally other discussion. I just hope that you see that we're not that bad at all.

Or other Christian denominations simply interpret the passage(s) differently than you do. Whichever you want to spin it really...

On the topic of religion: I don't subscribe to a particular religion.

I am a deist meaning I believe in God but don't know quite who or what He/She/It is.

I really don't like people who calls Americans "Un-American" for insulting their president. In reality, people who gripe about the government are better Americans than those who see problems and say nothing.

I also hate censorship. Now, I don't mean that there should be hardcore sex and foul language on prime time TV. I mean that people should be able to speak their minds without fear of being pulled off the air. Censorship of criticism against the government is a trademark of totalistarian regimes (i.e. fascist and communist countres).

I hate the Guantanamo Bay situation. Those are shady dealings. Sending people to prison without trials? The Purges that happened under Stalin in Russia come to mind when I think about this.

Also, I hate biggots.

I hate political and religious debates/discussions/arguements. They never get anywhere because both sides are stubborn and always believe their word is the truth. Haaaaha....

Not really. It's been much worse.

I jsut needed to get a little political debate out of my system. It's been a while. I think I'm done now though.
