    So last nite I went out with a few friends to celebrate a bday.. And I had a great time!! I did not feel like I was sinning, or turning my back on jehovaH. I sang happy birthday really loud!!! Anyway no guilt whatsoever!!!

    Good for you,

    just because there were two occasions that put b-days in a bad light

    I don't see anywhere in the Bible that bans them

    If you can celebrate a birthday with no guilt then you must have a conscience so scarred by evil that you no longer know the difference between good and bad. From here it is just a short step to killing and eating babies, or, worse, not underlining your Watchtower lesson.

    Stephen Colbert said try the Baby Parmesan at Olive Garden if you eat with Satan.

    Hee hee. I remember the first Halloween after we were completely free of the Borg our 7 year old son dressed up as a really cute mini dracula and knocked on the door of our neighbour who gave him a pound for being so scary. He was thrilled!

    It seemed really wiered when we first started celebrating Birthdays. If we had been aliens pretending to be humans I don't think we could have felt more out of place to start with, but we don't even stop to think about it now.
