    I was looking up Christmas music and remembered that last year when we went to a Christmas mass (I am not Catholic btw) that some of the hymns sounded eerily like JW songs. Probably their songs that JWs stole the tunes of. Does anyone have any songs, esp. from the brown songbook that sounded a LOT like other "pagan" songs? I know there was one that sounded Hawaiian and one that sounded like the Looney Tunes song too but I haven't listened (nor do I want to, I'll get them in my head!!) to in awhile that sound like other songs, espescially old church songs.

    I was of the brown "Sing Praises To Jerhohver" songbook so no green or pink or whatever, I never knew those.

    Thanks, it would be amusing to me. :)

    No idea what the song was but lyrics - - "Happy are all they that put there trust in him today" spring to mind. The melody to that song is very hymn like

    The "Looney Tunes" song --- that funny. Wouldn't that be a kick if they'd copied the evil Catholic churches tunes/OMG!

    Don't insult church hymns by comparing them to Kingdom songs.

    Oh yeah, I am sure that they cribbed The Old Rugged Torture Stake, Bringing in the Studies, and Amazing Undeserved Kindness from a hymnal.
