i can not belive that people say these things! Yes our religion is striced but ,i as a 16 year old boy, can say that we do not miss out! Oh yaeh we do.....on aids and all other S.T.D.`s we miss out and drugs and becoming heroin adicts, we miss out on un-wanted pregnacies, we miss out on having to have our stomach pumped every saturday night because we ve been out and drank to much! YES we miss out on alot!
Young man, there are many many "worldly" people who also miss out on those terrible things you mentioned and it has nothing to do with being a worshiper of Jehovah. You have been conditioned to believe that only Jehovah's Witnesses are free of these afflictions. That is simply not true. You should know that there is a very high rate of fornication, adultery, drug & alcohol abuse, teenage/premarital pregnancy, child molestation and lying among the members of the congregations. I knew "pioneer brothers" who would get so drunk the night before and you could find them faithfully standing on a street corner (doing streetwork) in Downtown San Diego barfing their theocratic guts out into the gutter with a Watchtower in hand. You don't know what you are talking about.
