A religious question/concern...

My daughter has always been of Baptist faith. Her husband is Mexican and he has always been Catholic. He won't go to the baptist church and she won't go to the catholic church. Lately there has been a mexican guy coming to their house from the Jehova witness faith doing Bible studies. He tells them that they celebrate all holidays except Thanksgiving and I have always believed that they don't celebrate any holidays that we do, such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and they don't celebrate their own birthdays. Could someone who knows about this faith, enlighten me as to what is right or wrong about this. I just wondered, thank you.

I had a friend that was Jahova Witness and she wasnt even allowed to accept a gift from me for her bday. So I would always give her something a couple days before or after her bday and say it was just for being my friend. Also she wasnt allowed to stay at school for Christmas, Valentine, Halloween or any other holiday type parties.

They should be aksing why there is divisions within the faith and why the faith cant even decide which books and writings belong in the bible of the faith. They should be made aware that the church is the people, not the building. To go to a building to worship thier god is between themselves and thier god. Location and man made labels on the building has no bearing on this short time they spend worshipping thier god. Im sure thier god would not ignore them, thier prayers or devotion just because they are in a building with a man made label placed on it. Bye for now. Enki

To decide on a religion because of fringe benefits LOL is not accepting it for what it is. Choice of belief is a serious undertaking and not something you do as a compromise. Maybe they should spend some time looking into what the 'really' believe before they look for a religion to fit.
