Isn’t it strange that the one true religion allows the worlds view of beards to shape their view? Satan’s world didn’t like beards so beards were bad. Now it’s acceptable because Satan’s world accepts men with beards??
Maybe birthdays next? Probably not for a while I guess. But piñatas are okay despite originating from the birthday of an Aztec sun god.
DATA-DOG: because J-dumbs have to be in step with the Borganization…. Not The Bible
That has always been their approach. They place themselves between Jehovah and everything else, including the Bible. This has been so even back in Russell's day, since he believed that Studies in the Scriptures was a better Bible than the Bible.
And it obviously went to their heads, because another thing that has carried over from Russell's times is that they just make stuff up and use their authority as the channel of god to force it on the rank and file. Blind, unquestioning obedience has been the most important part of the religion almost from the beginning.
