We laughed it off and Dave said "I doubt you'll go to hell over it". Mulan's reply in the fortune cookie thread-- Why do jw's sometimes say things like this? Knowing they don't believe in hell, or sometimes I catch my jw saying things like 'Bless you' after a sneeze. Now for him it is probably an old habit that peeks out every once in awhile. At times I do find him saying things that clearly go against jw doctrine. I never know if it is just an old habit or what? Then I will see something on the order of Mulan's post and wonder if these are just worldly phrases they pick up without thinking?
