Morphine Prince 109,683 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 MOSCOW (AP) — Russia's Supreme Court has banned the Jehovah's Witnesses from operating in the country, accepting a request from the justice ministry that the religious organization be considered an extremist group. The court ordered the closure of the group's Russia headquarters and its 395 local chapters, as well as the seizure of its property. The Interfax news agency on Thursday quoted Justice Ministry attorney Svetlana Borisova in court as saying that the Jehovah's Witnesses "pose a threat to the rights of the citizens, public order and public security."

Rabbit Heart 619 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Smart. They are so boring and annoying! Here where I live they stop people on the streets, come to people's homes to promote their religion! Like GTFOH believe what you want I don't care but stop throwing yourself down people's faces and try to convert them! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lassex 1,169 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Ironically, they're the most peaceful religious group ever. I wish they wouldn't have to face this kind of injustice. I'm personally an atheist but I still find this ban unneccessary. Sure, Jehovah's witnesses are annoying but they are relatively harmless. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagzus 23,140 Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 Doesn't surprise me bc we live in a world where a man the same shade of orange as my grandmother's kitchen wants to ban religious freedom in America too. Plus Russia is a country that publicly denies they aren't homophobes but teaches homophobia in schools, allows you to assault, rape and murder LGBT citizens and more. Nothing honestly surprises me anymore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
