First; this is what I saw growing up, second; I was just following stereotypes that Jehovah’s Witnesses are not good people, as well as believing that they thought their religions was much more superior than other religions, and third; I believed that my religion and beliefs was all I needed to know. I felt like I did not need any other religion to tell me about my God. As I continue my field experience, I see myself opening up more to many other different things, outside my usual
