    So the Olympic torch came by the other day, and who did we stand next to by accident to watch and celebrate, but a Jehovah's Witness couple.

    Now, even I know that the Olympics is pagan in origin, and was for the Greek gods so what are Jehovah's Witnesses doing celebrating it?

    The lady even had what appeared to be her book bag with her.

    This makes the not celebrating of Birthdays very hypocrytical.

    I think it would be more in keeping with the ideology of the Olympic torch if they drove it here from Greece in a Volkwagon.

    Two elders in Wales carried the Olympic torch. One was disfellowshipped, the other 'showed repentance' so was only reproved and deleted as an elder.
