There sure are some quirky rules out there. I used to regularly walk through a conservative Hasidic neighbourhood in Brooklyn (big beards, woman with wigs etc). On a couple of occasions I was approached by locals asking me to come to their home and turn on/off all their lights. I guess they are not allowed to use electronics on certain days (but funnily enough were apparently were ok with gentiles operating it for them).

I've heard of some of the wacky rules with the hardcores (Hasidics) that technically operating a light switch or whatever is 'work' and cannot be permitted on the Sabbath.
I'm not 'Anti-Religion' in any sense, but guys, come on, lets dial 'er back a little here.
I would say I'm 'Anti-Extremism' in almost any form.
Like, what, you're going to forsake Paradise by using your TV on Sunday?
