Military and Scripture
by simplesally inok, i was reading on another thread and the poster brought up a side point that made me go "omg"!!!.
here's the quote:i would serve in the military as did cornelius, a roman army officer who converted to christianity ... and who was never required to leave the military, nor is there in record that he left the roman army.
it never dawned on me that cornelius was 1)an army officer and 2)no scripture demands his resignation of said position.. any thoughts?

Memorial Supper - A child's perspective
by Atreyu inat the memorial supper, i took along my little daughter, nearly 6. she's not familiar with kingdom halls and what's going on there.
to make her comfortable, i let her bring a favourite "teddy bear", actuallay a cow.. she found it very peculiar that the bread and wine was passed from hand to hand without anyone eating or drinking.
she asked a lot and i tried to explain.

Why the disrespect for Jesus?
by MavMan innow i understand completely that most in this forum are 100% against jws and the watchtower.
what i don't understand is the disrespect that has been shown for such a sacred occasion that is the memorial (last supper).
whether you agree with jws or not, the fact is that the last supper has a lot of meaning for christians.
