    I hated celebrating Thanksgiving JW style. It consisted of going out in field service and bothering people on a holiday.

    I did that once. We ended up getting cravings for turkey because every door had turkey cooking while we were bothering people on the other side. And every door had someone home--impossible to get out of placing rags.

    Really?

    Not this one, and maybe 90 % of the others.

    Here are some other points to keep in mind. Turkeys don't like to celebrate Thanks-giving. In fact they would rather we would all go preaching on that day.

    This was interesting. I could not magnify the image at first so I could not see what it was.

    Pagans ate breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They must have used the equivalent of a bathroom, too. Pagans were earlier. What is not pagan? I am certain the WT has a precise year (month and day, too) for the day Adam and Eve's intermarried children became pagan. What drama!

    Think about it. pagans used wheels, can't have wheels b/c they are pagan. Pagans used doors; can't use doors b/c they are pagan. Pagans cultivated food and textiles-must go around with no cultivated food and be buck naked b/c pagans certainly did it.

    BOTR, Good one! US money has pagan symbols all over it but I've never heard of a case where the WT$ turned it down.
