This so-called "question" is lying slander against the Christian Congregation of Jehovah's Witnesses. In fact, Jehovah's Witnesses almost NEVER object to the behavior of their classmates or neighbors, and are quite consistent in their worship.
For decades, Jehovah's Witnesses have been remarkably unique among minority religions, in that the Witnesses make so FEW demands on school districts with regard to overt celebrations of unquestionably religious holy days as All Saints Day/Halloween, Christmas, Saint Valentine's Day, Saint Patrick's Day, and Easter.
In addition, no actual Jehovah's Witness would participate in any Easter Egg hunt. No actual Jehovah's Witness would accept what he knew to be a toy or treat from a pagan celebration such as Easter. No actual Jehovah's Witness would give or receive a Christmas gift at work, school, or in private.
Sadly, the bigotry and hatred of this so-called "question" are unsurprising to true Christians.
(John 15:19) If you were part of the world, the world would be fond of what is its own. Now because you are no part of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, on this account the world hates you.
(Luke 6:22) Happy are you whenever men hate you, and whenever they exclude you and reproach you and cast out your name as wicked for the sake of the Son of man.
(1 Peter 4:4) Because you do not continue running with them in this course to the same low sink of debauchery, they are puzzled and go on speaking abusively of you.
(2 Timothy 4:3-5) For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the healthful teaching, but, in accord with their own desires, they will accumulate teachers for themselves to have their ears tickled; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, whereas they will be turned aside to false stories. You, though, keep your senses in all things, suffer evil, do the work of an evangelizer, fully accomplish your ministry.

OK....you get the bigoted American award for the night!!!
Really the thing you may fail to understand is that making generalizations is narrow minded....people are all different...yes some of these may be true in a very general sense but the dangerous thing is that when you apply them to everyone you show just how small you really are.....We as a race "One Big Human Family" need to get beyond your way of thinking...
Good luck on your challenge!

Dude how old are you. You spell like second grader. How can you complain about people who won't learn English when it is clear that you've yet to master it yourself?
