I respect her beliefs but when i think about the twins growing up without a mum, i find those beliefs to be stupid. It's rude but imo its true.
I'd respect her... at least she actually followed what she believed in, rather than picking and choosing to make things easier for herself. There isn't much that annoys me more than people who say they're religious yet don't follow half of the rules (ie: most people who claim to be religious) just because it doesn't suit them.
I really really dislike all religions, so I personally think it is stupid to die for a religion.
It's hard to see if this is morally right or not, because while saying "It's good she had something to believe in", that thing could be death upon many people.
I personally think changing how you live is too far for any religion. But we all have different ideas on how too live.
People who follow religions should follow them to the word of whatever their sacred texts are. If you think about it, in this case she believed in the Judeo-Christian God and in His son, Jesus. Therefore, she believed that the stories of the Bible are true, and believes that God will reward the faithful and punish the unfaithful. Now, if you're a true believer (as in, not someone who just says it and maybe goes to church or something) then you will fear that punishment and love that reward, and so follow the word of God fully and without alteration. That is the sort of religious person I respect, because it's not the easy route and it shows true faith.I really really dislike all religions, so I personally think it is stupid to die for a religion.

I'm not religious myself because I know that I don't believe, and I don't pretend to. I don't want to be the sort of person who says they believe in something and then shows no respect to it.
It was a very stupid thing she did, basically suicide which is a mortal sin. If she was anything other than a Jehovah's witness she'd be in Hell.
I can agree that doing that shows you will go to extreme measures to follow your religion, and I suppose I do show a certain respect for that.People who follow religions should follow them to the word of whatever their sacred texts are.

I dislike religion for many many reasons, however, I am not the sort of person to go "Your a bad person because your religious". But I do agree with you also that it is wrong to say your religious but show no respect for your religion.
So many in's and out's to religion.
religion is the root of all evil.
