Interesting thread, thanks- it brought up a childhood incident that I haven't thought about in years. When I was about 9 or 10, a new girl joined my class at school, seemed really nice and got along well with people. Around a week or so after she joined, she started talking a lot about how awesomely kicking rad Jesus was, and asking where we all went to church/encouraging us to go to the kingdom hall, which was kind of unusual as most kids weren't religious at all. I guess I mentioned where I went (dragged to catholic church by my parents), and conversation continued on other paths. From the next day onwards, she just flat out ignored my existence- wouldn't talk, would walk away if I was near. She apparently tried to get other kids to do the same, which I didn't know about until after I was dragged out of class and asked if I had said anything to the girl about religion by the headteacher. I explained what I knew, and I can remember how exasperated the guy looked- he told me emphatically not to worry, that it wasn't my fault and to get back to class. A little while later on the same day, I was sat in class and (presumably) the girls parents came into class, and pulled her out, while giving everyone in sight the stinkeye. Never saw her again. Is there some JW thing where Catholics are the devil incarnate? big scary monsters posted:They both had name badges....... they both had American accents..... I'm also gonna bet mormon/church of latter day saints, especially if they were in pristine matching suits with US accents. Where I live, they seem to operate a lot on missionary work, as well as JW's and some weird baptist lot that literally sing (badly) while walking down the road. I totally own them all by giving a sheepish "thanks but no thanks, have a nice day"
