Anything that is even remotely fun is looked down on by joke-hova. Why have any fun when the time could be wasted putting energy into having us all enslaved? This has been an issue since Christi-SCAM-ity started. Virtually every type of game has been banned at one time or another. Today, it is video games. Back then, pinball, bowling, board and card games, and anything else that is fun. Music--from "evil disco" to rap and hard rock, they always have something bad to say about it.
And, if you take time off, prepare to waste time going to all the boasting sessions and field circus while in your destination. Imagine if you are in a big city in America. Why bother going to places like New Zealand, Germany, Austria, Chile, or Hong Kong when you are going to have to do the exact same work there as you are doing at home? Just keep wasting the money, instead, on Israel mission trips.
