This definitely seems a bit odd to me, too.

The various religious groups have their own beliefs. I don't necessarily agree with them but I respect their right to believe however.  I have an idea that if we all shared our ideas on religion we would get a lot of disagreement or possibly even fights  (at least verbally).  I guess "odd" is whatever is different from us.

Hey, I fully respect their religious rights.  If this is a path they choose, then (by all means) should they be free to follow it without ridicule.  I am definitely not trying to pick a fight or make fun of anyone's religious beliefs.

 

I respect their right to remain neutral, however, as American citizens, they are still legally bound to the decision of legislators.  Seems different to me to not allow members to have a say as to who will be making those decisions.

 

Hey, all the power to them.  Perhaps I'll have to do some research to find out more about the practice.  I'll plead complete ignorance on this religious doctrine.

Are they Jehovah's Witnesses?  Just kidding, of course they are.  I have neighbors that are such.  They can't vote, celebrate holidays, etc.  If they do receive a gift it has to be in a paper bag.

You know George Wallace has got to be looking up from hell and thinking how if he had claimed all blacks in Alabama were Jehovah's Witnesses in 1963, he wouldn't have had to let them vote...

Of course, the Williams Sisters are making a lot of money these days and may therefore be closet Republicans
