Do you argue with religious people?
#30
RE: Do you argue with religious people?
That's one of the biggest shames of religion. It prevents people from having harmless fun, for fear that it will turn them bad, or let demons in. Like someone who I once saw argue against yoga because it relaxes you, and might allow demons to possess you. Can you imagine always having your guard up against things that can't be proven to exist? usually we'd call that paranoid schizophrenia. 

I had some JWs come to my door a few times one year. This was back when I had started going to church again, so I could honestly tell them I was going to church, and we talked a bit about christianity. My grandmother was always against them, but back when I was christian I liked how they really got out there and spread the word like people were supposed to do. I just don't think that being told not to drink blood means you shouldn't get blood transfusions. There may have been one or two other things I was told about them that grandma disagreed with, but I forget.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
