    I'm now the receiver of all queries JW since everyone knows about my beloved...

    The first words out of her mouth? "Hey! Some JWs came by and handed this invitation to me for something called a memorial. It says they're inviting me to an "anniversary" of Jesus' death. Are they kidding? They're celebrating Christ's death? Isn't that a little creepy? Do they know he "rose again in accordance with the scriptures...?" (non jws would recognize the sarcasm).

    Me: Uh, yeah... see....

    Cousin: Uh yeah... is this a seance or something? It's in the evening. What happens when it gets dark? Is this a candelight vigil or something?

    Me: Uh, hmm... good question... I dunno does it say?

    Cousin: It says that I have to go and find out if death ends it all... wtf? You sure there's nobody being sacrificed at this thing? Like, will there be a real live demonstration? Why the preoccupation with death?

    Me: They kinda have this preoccupation with Armageddon.

    Cousin: I'd need to be preoccupied with some anxiety meds if I heard THAT every weekend. You wanna go? I'll give you my thing here...

    Me:

    So, this is what it sounds/looks like to us non-jws. I will go and pick up the invite and try to empty my brain of all that I've learned and give you my thoughts.

    I haven't received an invite yet. The JW's are slacking in my neighborhood. Even my mom hasn't invited me.

    Great thread NeverKnew

    1) Jehovah's Witnesses shun the cross of salvation; they are enemies of the Cross as stated in Philippians 3:18

    2) Jehovah's Witnesses Abstain from the blood of the Christ, when they refuse to partake the wine and the bread

    3) Jehovah Witnesses celebrate His death not the resurrection ; without the resurrection thier worship would be in vain

    4) Jehovah's Witnesses refuse to be witnesses for the Christ as he commanded after his resurrection in Acts 1:8

    They are the Antichrist, for a Jehovah's Witness , it would be insane to witness in Jesus name

    Back when we were inviting associates to the Memorial I had one ask jokingly " You guys are not going to sacrifice me or anything, right?"

    We chuckled a little then anothe Jw with me asked him "On a side note, do you know what your blood type is?"

    Blank stare,...

    All that, and I hope they have to cancel the whole REJECT Astaroth Party in many areas. What a letdown to be invited to this wastefest and disgrace of an event in places like New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, Toronto, Mexico City, and Philadelphia only to have widespread blackouts (especially hitting the places where these atrocities happen) lasting the duration of the wastefest, or a blizzard that hits the region. I can only hope joke-hova loses a good many of these wastefests.

    Then all that time and paper will have gone to waste.
