  Funny how "taking a rest" and "differing with each other" gets you booted out on your arse. Jesus took time away from the ministry/rested. Paul and Barnabas differed with each other. I guess those examples are in the Bible for fun, not because we're supposed to apply them to our own lives or learn from them.

  And don't get me started on how so-called Strong In The Truth™ people claim to be stumbled over the stupidest pettiest things, like seeing someone else in a 2-door car, or wearing a certain style of hair, having a beard, or a wide tie, or a skirt that's a little too short, or a blouse that's a little too low cut for their taste. Yeah, "get your feelings hurt" like that and you're not a JW anymore!! LOL

  Amazing how fragile this being in the truth is.

  Okay, here's my rhyming reply...

  -------------------

  10 little Witnesses, only one with a spine.

  That one spoke out, then were nine.

  9 little Witnesses believing in a date.

  One did research, now there’s only eight.

  8 little Witnesses don’t wanna go to heaven.

  One got a clue, then there were seven.

  7 little Witnesses, with everyone else to fix.

  One was open-minded, then there were six.

  6 little Witnesses, like bees in a hive.

  One asked questions, that leaves only five.

  5 little Witnesses, very, very poor.

  One went to college, then there were four.

  4 little Witnesses, freak elder Pharisee.

  Pedophile protection, now there’s only three.

  3 little Witnesses with way too much to do.

  One just had to stop and think, then there were two.

  2 little Witnesses, now we’re almost done.

  UN alliance scandal, that brings us down to one.

  1 little Witness thinks he’ll never see death.

  Let’s hope he finally gets it, but don’t hold your breath!
